A premium training experience
At Shady Acres, Gun Dogs are our specialty. Whether you want a weekend hunting dog or a dog that you can enjoy running a hunt test with, we got you covered. Our program is a minimum of 4 months. It usually takes about 6 months to train a good gun dog but after 4 months you can take the dog home when you are ready.
The Gun Dog program will include...
-
Obedience Training
-
Collar Conditioning
-
Force Fetch
-
Conditioning to Gunfire
-
Steady to single marks
(on land and water)
-
Double Marks
(on land and water)
After the Gun Dog program we can move into an advanced training program where we teach the dog to run blind retrieves, pick up triple marked retrieves and more complicated work!
Price per month is the same, it just takes more time to teach these advanced concepts. Please give us a call if you have questions or if you would like to come out and visit and watch us train. You are always welcomed.

Wes and his family do a great job taking care of the the pups and thier facility. I needed some help getting my Brittany Spaniel steady to point. I ask Wes to help me and he did just that. I would recommend a pointer to Shady Acres. Good people!!!!!

Bought a started dog from Wes about 2 years ago. She’s turned out great and had a great foundation when I got her. Couldn’t be more pleased

My Boykin Oakley is a Shady Acres puppy and both he and Molly have been trained by Wes. Not only is Wes a great trainer but he, Stacy and the boys are the some of the nicest people I’ve ever met.
