Spring at Fallowfen Gundogs 2016
Well its 2016 and meant to be spring however the only signs are that the snowdrops and daffodils have blossomed.
With a new year comes new members to our working team of gundogs. Three new members to our team and also standing at stud are Tully a working golden retriever, Sweep a blue roan working cocker spaniel and Grouse a yellow Labrador retriever.
All three boys had a few outings this past shooting season and showing the right temperament, attitude and working abilities.
Although our dogs are working companions it is also very important to look for the right dog to produce faithful family companions with fantastic temperaments.
With summer around the corner and lighter nights on the horizon it gives us an opportunity to get out and enjoy the dogs and address any training issues picked up during the last season.
This year we will be continuing with our group training sessions followed by our Charity fun day for all to enjoy from the average pet dog to the more competitive handler.
We are also looking to put some workshop days together to allow dog owners to train, discuss and understand dogs needs and characteristics.
For anyone looking for any help and advice please feel free to contact ourselves.

British Summer Time begins
Well what happened to spring!?
British summer time has officially started, but we are all waiting for the kick start of the spring?
This has had a knock on affect to all things including nature and the dogs. The girls have been late coming in season due to the lack of sunshine and extreme weather conditions for this time of year.
Summer is the warmest of the four temperate seasons, between spring and autumn. At the summer solstice, the days are longest and the nights are shortest, with day-length decreasing as the season progresses after the solstice. The date of the beginning of summer varies according to climate, culture, and tradition, but when it is summer in the Northern Hemisphere it is winter in the Southern Hemisphere, and vice versa.
We have started our summer group Gundog training sessions on Sunday's. We do retrievers one week then spaniels and HPR's the next week. We work on obedience on and off lead, sit and stay, retrieving and steadiness, all dogs have to work using the distraction of the other dogs and owners.
