Spring has just begun and the appointment of the Hunting Village a Bastia Umbra (province of Perugia). From 13 to 15 May 2022 the event dedicated to hunting, sport shooting and outdoor activities will return in all its glory with a series of events that are still being defined. Of great interest will certainly be the workshop curated by Serena Donini on thedog training. In training the hunting dog great attention should be paid to building stable behaviors on which the handler can rely at all times and environments.
A hunting dog will have to learn a few behaviors over the course of his life. The difficulty, therefore, lies not so much in teaching them as in making them stable and functioning in every context. Very often, in fact, we realize that behaviors such as, for example, recall, or the retrieve, which we taught in the backyard, does not work, or not enough, when we are in the woods. In this seminar, trainers specialized in training hunting dogs will explain which are the functional obediences for hunting dogs and how to build them and make them stable in any context.
One of the biggest concerns for hunters is that their dog may develop a fear of gunshot. In this seminar aSpecialized trainers will explain, with the support of practical examples, how to build positive associations with the shotgun and what to do, on the other hand, if the dog has already had previous negative experiences. Correct behavior after the shot can greatly influence the results of the search for the injured garment. In case you suspect a possibility of injury, it is the hunter's ethical responsibility to take all necessary actions for the recovery of the wild.
In this seminar, expert track dog handlers will show you how to approach them correctly inspection of the point of the shot, and how to plan, if necessary, the intervention of the track dog. The use of specialized dog units for wildlife monitoring has represented, in recent years, a growing support both for the collection of wildlife data and for the monitoring of species of conservation interest. In this seminar zoologists and trainers expert in the formation of canine units for wildlife monitoring will show you what are the possible uses of dogs in this sector.
