Training

Training at ProStart begins early on our pups. We live on 50 acres of training ground and lease several other large training fields. We also have access to thousands of acres of National Forest strait out the back door. I have two large lofts of birds housing pigeons, quail, and chucker. These are readily available as we hatch our own birds for training. Training cost is a flat rate of $650 per month. Dogs are worked 5 to 6 days a week.
To enter our program pups need to be around 4 months or older and be current on vaccinations and wormings. Starting pups includes coming when called, introduced to e-collar , introduced to birds and gun fire, basic obedience, and good manners. Generally within 30 to 40 days I can take a pup from nothing to finding and holding birds and being shot around with the shotguns. There are no hidden costs. The $650 covers feeding, kennel cleaning, training and birds used. Feel free to call and tell me your goals for your dog. I will be glad to give you phone numbers of past clients upon request. I only take a very limited number of dogs prebooked per month. This allows your dog to get the time needed to sort through any problems and you get them back better than when they came here. I primarily specialize in training German Shorthairs but will take any breed of gun dog if i have a spot open including flushing dogs and retrievers.
