Field Training
IVRC (Inland Valley Retriever Club)
August 2, 2008
We went back out to Prado to do some field
training with the kids. While there we met Danielle from Mordha
Retrievers, who was training two of Mira's half brothers! Below are some
pictures of her "boys".
Danielle was also nice enough to take some video of Mira training. Which I
will be loading up here soon! She did great of her retrievers. She had never
marked in cover before, so she found that part a little tricky. But she came
flying back to me each time she got the bumper. She also got a chance to do
some shallow water retrieves, she thought that was just great! I could tell
she was feeling pretty good about her water skills!
This was also Sammy and Barley's first time marking in cover, at first they
were not quite sure about the how to play the game. But once they grasped
that they had to go searching for the bumper they seemed to take to it
quickly. They also got a chance to do some singles where they watch the
gunner retire. Once he was "gone" they are release to find and
retrieve the bumper. They seemed to do this exercise pretty good. I was very
proud of my boys!
