GSP Training

• GSP Training Beth DeVries Posted : 6/25/2006 10:55:49 AM My husband and I have a 9 week old GSP (Germanshorthaired Pointer). We want to start getting him bird savvy and neither of us have ever done this type of training before. Can anyone assist me in where to start? we have a bird wing and he is retreiving that but what is next? Thanks LIKE 3 REPLIES 247 VIEWS LAST POST VALERIE WILSON Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• ewin0210 Posted : 7/19/2006 7:59:15 AM I definitely recommend joining a local german shorthair club.  You can find one in your area here: [linkhttp://www.gspca.org/member_clubs.htm]http://www.gspca.org/member_clubs.htm[/link]   They should be able to guide you through the process. That's how we got started. Scout only needs one more leg for his JH. Usually you can make it through the first level of testing without a trainer(if your dog has a good bird sense as well as obedience).  Anything beyond that would probably require working with someone with more experience.  Its so amazing to see them come alive to their instincts!  Best of luck!!!! 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
