Gundog Training Courses 

Breckland Gundog Training Offer a range of courses from their training centre in Ashill, and training venues throughout Norfolk. 






Introduction To Gundog Training 'Mallard Course'

Our 6-week introduction course is the ideal place to start if you are thinking of gundog training. Demonstrations and exercises to get you started with your gundog training in each of the 6 sessions have inspired many to step onto the gundog training ladder. This course is the starting point for inclusion in our Pup2Peg programme and Sunday Group Classes, where you can work through the various levels towards your goal. 

Gundog Obedience

Before the retrieves, blinds, and fancy handling comes obedience. Our Gundog Obedience Course focuses on the foundations that make everything else possible: connection, recall, heelwork, steadiness, focus, and control. Build the foundations properly, and the rest of your gundog training becomes a whole lot easier.

Dummy Launcher Workshops

More distance. More excitement. More control. Our Dummy Launcher Course shows you how to introduce launcher work correctly and use it to develop steadiness, marking, confidence and more advanced retrieving skills.

Cold Game Workshops

When you are at a level ready to start thinking about your first shoot, we offer cold game training days, getting your dogs to pick cold game, including, grouse, duck, partridge, pheasant, woodcock, and fur in a non-pressured environment. 

In The Field Days

The last step before "flying solo" a full shoot day experience, working on the beating line in the morning and picking up in the afternoon, all with the support of experienced gamekeepers and our own gundog trainers. These days are very rare an are normally booked up a season in advance. Only dogs that are at the 'Woodcock' level of our training program are eligible for our 'In The Field Days'
