Become a positive trainer for 7k

[Springcopse spaniels]

Perhaps I am not reading this correctly, but you can become a recognised accredited trainer for 7 large
And on there FB page they seem to be queuing up!

I wonder how much an hours lesson will be with a recognised accredited trainer?
With 'gundogs' becoming ever more popular, there's certainly money to be made out of it. And I sort of admire the people with the balls to do it.

My thoughts exactly. So I must be unethical but rational perhaps ?

So other professional gundog trainers give their time and expertise, lessons, facilities and shot over days for nothing?

Naj

[trekmoor]

Nope but they aren't charging 7k either ! Must be worth it though. After all, at the end of the course you get given a "certificate !" That's a bloody expensive bit of bog paper !

Yours sceptically,

3 courses, as I read it 2.5k a time
And that per person in a group of what, 10?

But for 7k Naj, look how many practical `shot over' days and tuition based around your actual dog you could get, which is how your going to learn anyway .
Is this about making better gundog trainers? I'm thinking its more about selling a piece of paper to those looking to have a piece of paper that says they are a good gundog trainer and can then sell it on to the next wanabee.
Anyone who thinks they can learn half of what is required to train a gundog in four of five day lessons/instruction for this money + the annual registration fee LMAO, simply deserves to be parted from their money They'll get no sympathy, recognition ( of their bought qualification ) and no money from me

I could lend them carltons book, plenty of reward based training in that
