Lone Duck’s Gun Dog Chronicles – Détails, épisodes et analyse

For today's show, we have the pleasure of hanging out with Scott from Trulock Chokes. We kick off the show hearing about Scott's family business and how they got started in the outdoor industry. You'll quickly find that Scott is the real deal and knows a thing or two about hunting, fishing and especially, choke tubes. We get pretty deep with Scott in regards to how and why his chokes are unique, what he looks for in choke tubes, what he recommends for people to do when they get a new gun, etc. One of the most important things Scott suggests is to pattern the gun, choke and shell of choice at the rough distance you plan to shoot game. It sounds simple but ask yourself... have you done this recently? There's a ton of science that goes into making quality chokes for your guns and Trulock Chokes helps break it down on their youtube channel, which you can check out here. With thousands of variations of chokes, I'd bet there's something for you and your gun. It's worth looking into. Treat yourself.

Today we had a great conversation with our friend, Karl Gunzer, from Purina. Before working for Purina, Karl worked with some of the most well-known dog trainers in the country and competed at the national level. Karl shares how he got into the training game, how he worked his way into Field Trials and some of the most memorable dogs he has worked with over the years. After the retriever game, Karl began working for Purina and also got into running cattle dogs. We talk a lot about the crossover between training retrievers and stock dogs and Karl shares a lot of insights. It's always great to chat with people who work dogs and have such an interesting perspective on training animals. Karl and the rest of the folks at Purina are working hard to support our industry, the events and the dogs and for that, I think we owe them some gratitude.

Holy cow, what a detailed show. Tonight, we had the pleasure of chatting with a repeat guest and awesome guy, Kevin Cheff (The Retriever Coach). He is extremely knowledgeable and is great at breaking down training and information so anyone can understand each step along the way. Oh, and he does seminars you should look into. Some topics discussed are: dogs with high drive, getting dogs to come out of a kennel nicely, holding blind manners, indirect pressure, handling on marks, blinds, etc. After we finished the show, Bob turned to me and said "this was one of the best." Thanks for joining us, Kevin. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Welcome to Blaine Duck's Brown Dog Chronicles Academy. Tonight, Blaine allows Bob and Kevin to hang out and talk dogs with him. We hear about Blaines trip out west for Master Nationals '21, how his dogs performed, how he prepped them and how he eats string cheese for dinner. Also, Bob and Blaine chat about the upcoming Field Trial they're entering... stay tuned for how that goes. Then we dig into a very long and highly thorough conversation answering some questions from Blaine/Bob's Patreon friends. We dig into a wide variety of topics from heel techniques for puppies to en route force to teaching patience, etc. After the podcast ended, Blaine said he thought this was the most educational show he's done so far.

let's try this again... Our good buddy, Oliver Burman at Foundation Retrievers, joins us to reminisce about the Master National. We run through the prep work leading up to the test and each series and how each dog handled it (the good and the bad). The few weeks out west were enjoyable, humbling and exciting. Cheers to clients, family and friends for supporting Lone Duck. Now let’s get onto hunting season. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Tonight we enjoy speaking with a repeat guest and friend, Grayson Guyer from Lost Highway Kennels. Our show gets pretty deep and discusses human connections and how that connection works with dogs, too. We catch up with Grayson and hear about his upcoming plans for the NAVHDA Invite and how his feelings match Bob's with Master Stashionals '21. Grayson gets into some info about snake breaking dogs and how he has been helping people keep their dogs safe... stay tuned for more seminars on that from him... Finally get a little outside Lone D's usual topics to chat about life and the state of things. It's worth a listen and taking time to think. Learn more about your ad choices.

A few weeks back, a true dog man (KD Mathews) came to hang out and share some stories. KD lives down in sunny Florida and has been in the dog training business for the past 30 years and the reason is because he asks questions. Then he asks more. He asks the owners questions and in turn, teaches the owners about their dogs before really even teaching the dogs. Then ya know, he teaches the dogs, too. We dig into some leadership with dogs & people and surprise: coaching people and coaching dogs can be eerily similar. KD provides a phenomenal analogy that really hits home, especially since we all refer to ol' Lone D as Uncle Bob. Then we finish up chatting about bite work with dogs, the importance of a "denial" and how dogs never forget things, we just try to bury those memories deep, deep down below tons of positive reps. If you enjoyed the show as much as we did, hit up KD and learn more at socraticcanine.com... you'll be pleased you did. Cheers, brotherrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Learn more about your ad choices.
