Training Gun Dogs
We are adjacent to some top quail producing areas and our training grounds offer a diversity of terrain. This is quail country, and our grounds give our trainees, and dogs for sale, prime country to gain the experience they need in becoming pleasurable gun dogs.
We lease and maintain excellent West Texas hunting grounds to enable our trainees and dogs offered for sale heavy wild bird exposure in some of the best "dog producing" country available.
Our grounds here at the Farms are designed to produce maximum efficiency and "realistic" bird effects so the trainee can reach the highest levels of "yard work" and objectivity in hunting attitudes.
We accept beginning pups, and although we would like to enter a dog in training before reaching an age of 15 months, we do accept older dogs needing work, or perhaps with a problem. Dogs from all over the country come into the Farms for work. We are proud of broke dogs representing our work from all over the nation, and we invite you to let us work that favorite prospect for you.
Rates are $550 per month, including board, bird fee, and heartworm prevention. Each month is payable in advance of the training month. The first month is an evaluation period. If the dog does not prove worthy of continued training, we do not recommend a continuance after this period of time. Of course, length of time cannot be predetermined on any prospect. We carry each individual at his own pace, which is very important in breaking any dog.
We always keep started to finished dogs for sale and attempt to maintain a more personal touch inventory ... dogs that we know what they can do, and that are worked hard in the field under real hunting situations. Dogs are shown here in our grounds so that we may familiarize you on each individual dog's character and handling.
We also offer an off-season boarding and conditioning program for those folks needing off-season kenneling and care of their dog.
Old South Pointer Farms opened for full-time training and bird-dog sales in 1972. We've had thirty-four wonderful years helping folks with their dogs afield.
Please contact us if we can be of help to you and your bird dog needs.
