This is a two part course, introduction and advanced. Course participants will be introduced to the various demands made on Deer dogs, how to start off training a pup for the role selected, progression into work, understanding signs to look for when tracking, as well as a brief introduction to trials and competition as run on the continent. Wild Boar will also be covered.
