Jo and Abbie take a fascinating look into the world of gun dogs and gun dog training, including how it could benefit the average dog owner. Abbie started her gun dog training career 14 years ago when she first got her black labrador Mya as an 8 week old puppy, and is now an IABTC Qualified Dog Instructor, a Member of the Guild of Dog Trainers and has gained her Diploma in Canine Psychology. After working for 3 years as an Assistant Gundog Trainer at Ashleygrove Gundogs, she started Riverlily Working Dogs in 2012, offering relaxed and friendly reward-based gun dog training to build a working bond of trust and respect between dog and owner. Abbie currently has 10 working dogs and competes in Working Tests in the summer months and works on shoots in the winter months.
