A Day In The Life Of: GBS Gundogs & Picker Ups With Kev Jenkins

Episode Ten – With the pheasants flying high over the British countryside we join Picker Upper & Gundog Trainer Kev Jenkins owner of Dafarn Galed Gundogs, as he explains the vital role gundogs play on shoot days.

Welcome to a Great British Shooting, here we celebrate all that is great about shooting in Britain. From world-renowned driven shoots on prestigious country estates, through to walked up “rough shoots” on farms and smallholdings, we meet some of the incredible characters that bring our shooting days together.

The Bodidris Shoot Estate is set within the beautiful surroundings of Denbighshire, North Wales and offers shooters quality driven game on a traditional family run sporting estate. The atmosphere is always upbeat and friendly, as the team are dedicated to providing professional and friendly services, making sure everyone involved has the best day shooting possible.

Gundogs are an essential part of any driven shoot day; they not only can reach difficult areas such as undergrowth’s, they can help locate lost or injured game. It also would be unethical not to have dogs on driven days.

Kev’s role on shoot days is to stand behind the guns and collect all the birds that have been shot.

Before any gundogs can be taken on a driven shoot day they need extensive training.

One of the most challenging aspects of training gundogs would be teaching them steadiness. It’s essential that the dogs know the birds are there to be hunted and pushed forward – but for the dogs not to, what is called, peg them (i.e. catch the birds themselves). The only time a gundog should have a bird in its mouth is on a retrieve.

Kev loves nothing more than building a strong relationship with his gundogs – “Getting to see a puppy that has been specifically chosen from a litter go through extensive training to the point where they can confidently retrieve a bird is the best feeling in the world”.
