Bird Dog Training With Pen Raised Quail : Virginia Bobwhite Quail Shooting @ Sportsman Preserve
Third time in the field for Rip Dog with live birds and he is getting better each time. Another beautiful day in Virginia and great weather for an East coast style bobwhite hunt in the pines! Can’t thank Carl @ Sportsman’s Hunting Preserve in Carrsville for letting us come out every weekend and work my dog at his facility. These Wirehaired Pointing Griffons are absolutely amazing dogs!

A Deutsch Kurzhaar Story – Bird Dog Trainer for a Day – Upland Project
We all have our bird dog breeds, and for gun dog trainer and breeder David Trahan, that breed is the Deutsch Kurzhaar. David Trahan is a New Hampshire native and owner of On-Point Kennels in Deerfield. He has harnessed his passion for pointers by becoming a professional hunting dog trainer and eventually a Deutsch Kurhzaar breeder. These German Shorthaired Dogs from the German System are subject to testing and standards to maintain the rigorous requirements as a breeder. Deutsch Kurhzaar Fact: The German Shorthaired Pointer (originally Deutsch Kurzhaar) was developed in the mid-19th century. During that time, the concept of the “versatile” hunting dog became a priority in Western Europe as a practical alternative to the more aristocratic preference. The wealthiest hunters would own several breeds, one for each hunting task. But the versatile dogs had to do it all: find and point out mountain animals, retrieve waterfowl, track fur and feathers, and work consistently in varied terrain and weather conditions. This short film takes us on a journey from the breed to field training and ultimately what it is like to be a bird dog trainer. Although it is a demanding lifestyle, being a bird dog trainer is a rewarding experience. This Deutsch Kurhzaar film was presented by Dogtra: The Worlds Finest E-collars.
