The Smith family have been a staple of the bird dog world for the better part of a century at this point and have been the helper/teacher for countless people trying to learn how to train their own bird dogs. Theres still a seemingly endless amount of information and experience from guys such as Rick that is truly inspiring and motivates us to do more and more with our dogs!\n\nE-collars aren't "shock collars"\n\nStarting out in competition\n\nThe "Whoa Peg" into the belly band\n\nTimes prior to e-collars\n\n"Horse" vs "dog" trainers\n\nThe natural progression of the Smith Method\n\nBe silent and keep on searching!\n\nThis is "Basic!"\n\nRemove the grey area and train without emotions\n\nStructure and manners\n\nAre dogs or people softer now a days?\n\nGive them an inch and they take the mile\n\nBe FAIR & QUIET!\n\n--\nPresented By:\n\nStanding Stone Supply [Use Code: GDIY to save 10%]\n\nonX Hunt Maps [Use Code: GDIY20 to save 20%]\nDT Systems [Use Code: DTSocialMedia15 for 15%]\nFinal Rise\nUpland Gun Company\n-\nOther Partners:\nEukanuba // Bird Dog Society\n-\nGDIY Links:\nPatreon//Instagram//Facebook//Website\nLearn more about your ad choices.
