25. Working With The Dog In Front Of You

Welcome to this week's episode of LWDG PODDOG. This week we will be speaking about the fact that every gun dog is unique and how you can learn to work with a dog in front of you.

In this podcast, LWDG Founder Joanne Perrott is joined by  Experienced Trainers and LWDG Group Experts – Claire Denyer, Sam Thorneycroft-Taylor,  Emma Stephens, Jemma Martin and LWDG Featured Experts Abbie Reid, Nicci Kenny and  Rose Setten, as they discuss how we can give our working dogs individual training that suits them.

The team chats about how they individualise their training programmes to fit the dog rather than expecting it to fit into a pre-determined gundog training programme. They also talk about how important it is to know your dog as an individual and not just as part of a breed or type.
