Raven is working towards a campaign in Field Trials we are receiving training from George at Witchwillow gundogs. We have high hopes and he has come along immensely over the last few weeks.
Raven will retreive to hand and is very soft mouthed. He is a very intelligent little hunter with an excellent memory, a good eye and excellent nose to where his game has landed. Raven will also be entered into flyball and/or agility as he gets a little older as he seems to relish any kind of training and activity we do with him.
Raven is from our own breeding programme, and we own his mother Willow who also attends training sessions while out in the field, Willow is a calm non excitable dog which makes her an excellent hunting companion. Willow came to us as a young part trained dog. Her previous owner claimed she was gunshy and too placid to be a working dog, Willow is actually very calm around guns and will quite happily flush and hunt in a very quiet stealth mode. She is a quiet calm dog but is still very confident around other dogs and poeple. To say someone elses loss was our gain is an understatement. She is the reason we now both have fallen in love with this breed and I will always be grateful to her for that. Willow is very much the Alpha of our dogs.
