Crafting Quality Versatile Gundogs and Breeding Deutsch Drathaars
At Folded Wing Kennels we train dogs of all shapes and sizes but specialize in versatile gundogs. We train for a variety of hunting scenarios, obedience, and house manners. To us, dogs are family first and hunting companions second. That is why we try to develop the most well rounded dog possible by focusing largely on obedience. Dogs out of our program can be expected to be well mannered in the field and home.
Folded Wing Kennels focuses on a positive training method when training our hunting dogs. We want all of our dogs to be the best they can be. We understand that each dog is different than the next, and that just like people, one dog may learn differently than another. With this in mind, we work to build on your dog’s success by helping them individually, molding our training programs to fit each dog.
Dogs have their own personalities and natural abilities. Here at Folded Wing Kennels, we like to encourage those traits by incorporating different training methods to maximize your dog’s success.
We have a passion for hunting dogs, but will train all dogs for any situation. We train dogs for upland and waterfowl hunting, shed hunting, tracking, and obedience. If you have a hunting breed, we train for hunt tests (NAVHDA and JGHV) and can even handle your hunting dog in those tests for you.
We also believe that dogs are family first, hunting companions second. That is why we put a large focus on handling and obedience. We teach indoor manners, such as waiting at doors and before meals. We also teach our all of our dogs to behave around guests.
In order for your hunting dog to reach its potential we will personally discuss the goals you have, and how long you can leave your dog at Folded Wing Kennels for training. Together we will create an individualized training plan for your dog.
