We at Louter Creek Hunting Poodles are
striving to breed back the Standard Poodles with good drive to
retrieve in and out of the water. Standard Poodles are very
intelligent, easily trained and are proven to be efficient
retrievers.
Our dogs are trained slow and steady to achieve the desired
results which is an outstanding, reliable waterfowl retriever.
Training begins at an early age of seven weeks by retrieving
stuffed toys and bird wings. Basic obedience commands such as
heel, sit & here are very important to teach a puppy. It is also
essential to introduce them to water at an early age, and to
different bodies of water as they get older.
Most important
is to practice different drills, such as the depth perception
drill which helps them use their eyes for marking (watching the
fall of the bird).
It takes a lot of time and dedication to train your poodle
yourself, but in the end it is well worth it, as there is a real
bond between the hunter and life long hunting companion.
