If you own a gundog breed, you might recognise this…

You love their character at home, but the moment you step outside, their nose hits the floor and their ears completely turn off.

You are pulled as soon as you're out the door.

They struggle to focus.

They are easily distracted by the environment.

Recall disappears around wildlife.

The Gundog Standard

When people think of a well-trained gundog, they picture the ultimate behaved companion: a dog that walks at heel, comes back when they are called, and settles perfectly at home after a hard day's work.

You don't need to work your dog on a shoot to want that exact level of real-world reliability.

This programme is specifically designed for high-drive breeds like Spaniels, Retrievers, Pointers, and gundog crosses—who need more than generic training advice.

Through reward-based pet gundog training, I show you how to work with your dog’s genetics rather than fight against them.

Where My Programme Differs

My programme doesn’t just focus on behaviours you can see, for example, walking nicely on the lead, recall, and whistle training.

It also builds the underlying skills that make real-world reliability possible, such as focus, impulse control, and decision-making under distraction.

Walk on a loose lead: Teaching them to walk in line with your leg without pulling, rather than following their nose elsewhere.

Recall foundations: Teach a whistle recall that works around distractions and exciting outdoor environments so they choose you over wildlife.

Boundary control: Using place board training to teach your high-energy dog to settle, whether you're at home, visitors arrive, or you're sitting in a busy pub or café.

Breed Fulfilment: Replacing "self-employed" behaviours with appropriate outlets for their natural hunting and retrieving instincts. While we can use gundog retrieve training, I also specialise in tracking, meaning we can find the exact right dog sport for you as a team.

Ready to Advance?

Once the foundations are in place, we can continue progressing your dog's gundog skills through more advanced exercises. I can take your dog through the skills expected at Grade 2 Gundog Club level.

Whistle Control & Hunting

Teaching stop, turn, and hunting whistles, alongside quartering (hunting in a controlled pattern close to you).

Advanced Steadiness

Building deep impulse control, ensuring your dog remains stable and focused even when things are moving dynamically around them.

Advanced Retrieves

Teaching your dog to follow hand signals (directionals), find a dummy dropped earlier (memory retrieves), or hunt for a hidden target they didn't see land (blind retrieves).

What's Included:

IN PERSON COACHING

Your programme is built around you and your dog, not a fixed set of sessions. Most owners have around four in-person sessions across the 60 days, flexibly spaced to build the next steps of a plan tailored to your dog’s individual needs, goals, and progress, with the exact shape set on your call so you’re never over or under served.

TAILORED FOLLOW-UP SUPPORT

Within 24 Hours, you will receive session recaps and actionable training plans after each session, helping you confidently practise between appointments at home.

RELEVANT LEARNING RESOURCES

Session summaries may also include any relevant learning resources to support your practical and at-home training, such as online course enrolment, video tutorials, lesson plans and workbooks.

STAY CONNECTED

Ongoing support via WhatsApp for any questions, troubleshooting, or quick advice needed between sessions, with responses provided within 24 hours.

VIDEO FEEDBACK

Personalised feedback on videos you submit to ensure your training is progressing as intended and to help keep you moving forward between sessions.

ESSENTIAL EQUIPMENT GUIDANCE

Practical recommendations such as on leads, long lines, harnesses, food, toys, rewards, enrichment, and training equipment suited to your dog and training goals.

"Working with Emma has changed everything for us; she gave us the tools, confidence, and freedom to enjoy life with Charlie instead of worrying about his recall."

Manageable, Memorable Steps That Stick

Training shouldn’t feel like a chore or a series of restrictions. I believe training should feel fun and create active opportunities for your dog to offer more of the behaviours we actually want. By marking and rewarding the moments they get it right, we seamlessly form good habits that last a lifetime.

Human habits take roughly 6 to 8 weeks to firmly establish. That is why my programmes are structured in dedicated 60-day blocks—giving you the consistent, recurring support required to make real change stick for a lifetime.
