Hey Guys, thanks to your recommendations earlier this year, I've got a pup headed my way from Sky River Goldens in Ellensburg this spring. The little guy is due in February, so I'm looking at an April pick-up date.
My plan is to have him hunting ducks with me by December of 2017.
This is my first duck dog and I want to make sure that I do things right. I hunt A LOT and I hunt HARD. I want to make sure I give the little guy a real chance to shine in his first year in the marsh.
I know that many of you have trained multiple dogs and know more than any YouTube video or book could teach me and wanted to know if there are any retriever clubs that I should check out in the state. Any advice is greatly appreciated, thanks!
