Listen "#339 How do you Balance Upland Work with Retrieving Work?"
Episode Synopsis
In today's episode, based on a question I received, we breakdown why it is very possible to train upland and technical retriever work at the same time in a consistent routine retriever training process. Done correctly, upland hunting does not "ruin the retriever work", and retriever work should only enhance control in the upland field. The key is to approach this balance in light of what the dog tells you in training, not how it is 'supposed to go'.
