    Welcome to Standing Stone Kennels! In this video we work with Sprig to retrieve shot birds. This is a follow up to a previous video where Sprig didn't perform as well as we wanted. So we worked on retrieving a bumper in another episode, and as you will see, Sprig did much better this time. Follow along to learn these drills and techniques to help teach your lab to retrieve birds.

    Labs are good at hunting everything. My lab hunts pheasants rabbits squirrels woodcock ducks geese. Hes definitely a flushing dog.

    Ethan, I’ve been following your efforts with Sprig, specifically, following the flush and shot- not seeing the bird flight. I think Sprig is a natural pointing lab!!! He’s not hesitating, he pointing. I know you want him to flush, and
    see the bird escape. If that is what you want him to do, maybe, initially, leave him on point and you flush and shoot. This way his attention is on your action and the birds flight. I’m a 79 yr old lab lover and bird hunter. I wish
    I had Sprig. He works close, quarters nicely, stays within range, and he points. He would give me enough time , to get there (smile).
    Thanks for your training videos

      Thanks for watching! I also am a true pointing breed fan and sprig is not pointing... he lacks confidence in the flushing part of his job which will come shortly! I like your thought process with the marking portion! In just one more session he is already doing 99% better!

    How do you get your lab to work across, back and forth like that versus straight out? My five year old is a great hunter, but at times wants to work straight out instead of across. Would love to teach him how to work across the field. Thanks for any suggestions.

      River Stone Kennels! He is not a pointing lab, and isn’t pointing anymore. He just lacked a little confidence in his flushing to start with!

      @@dawsonjohnke1776 I'd say more "opinionated" than stubborn. Mostly it's just a matter of showing him what end result I want and he goes about it in his own particular way. But it's getting to the point where the second we hit the fields that switch flips and he just drops into business mode.

    I know this is an old video, but wondering what birds you are planting? Are they pigeons? Chukars? I can't tell from the film. They don't look like pheasants. They appear to be holding well, just curious.

    My duck dog is doing this exact thing. Never had to flush birds. He is having trouble understanding the flush. He is using his noise great just doesn’t understand what’s going one when the bird flushes. Just more birds in front of him?

    I love your videos. I love dogs too and labs are my favorite. Do you have a lot of ticks? I wonder how you prevent/treat. Perhaps you could address this on a video in the future. Thanks for sharing
