We begin the training for our Goose Control Dogs by careful selection; if the raw material isn't right, the end product won't be, either.

It is essential that these dogs come from strong working lines with an exceptional work ethic.  They also must have temprements that make them easy for an average, non-dog person to handle and work.

Contrary to many goose dog providers, we provide a solid foundation of actual herding training.  This includes general obedience, and livestock  work - on land as well as in the water.

Why?  Dogs trained strictly "on the goose job" degenerate into chasing behavior; and that is, quite simply, bad form.  It's bad for your customers to see, it's bad for the dog's long term working ability, and it's bad for maintaining control over the dog.
