Training Grounds
We lease 320 acres of rolling CRP (Conservation Reserve Program)
land for training purposes. This is prime pheasant hunting ground. Left primarily
in native grasses such as gama, blue, and buffalo grass, our acreage
borders active corn and alfalfa fields, and wild birds, rabbits,
and deer abound.
The draws are thick with willow, choke-cherries, and wild grape,
while the tops are open and grassy. As well, some of the low spots
hold water well into the summer, the perfect combination for working
and training your dog in most any real-hunting situation.
We emphasize serious water work for Cockers, Springers, and Labs. We use a half-dozen nearby lakes, ponds, and creeks, as well as the Missouri River for training. Using live birds and dummies, we create every conceivable situation your dog will encounter as a hunter or field trial dog.
No doubt about it! We love the water work, and we're absolutely sure your dog will too.
Our Kennel
Your Dog's Home Away From Home! Here At Absolute Gun Dogs we are fortunate to have a first-class boarding
facility only a couple of minutes from our training grounds, called
Club
Fido Lodge and Resort. Club Fido is a fully heated and air
conditioned kennel staffed with pet owners and pet lovers, just
like you and I. At Club Fido your dog lives in one of ninety spacious
4'x15' indoor/outdoor runs. They receive four daily exercise and
doggie socializing periods on top of their daily Absolute training.
(Generally a long free-run in the morning and focused bird-work in
the afternoon) Club Fido also offers a full-service doggy daycare,
and professional grooming services.
The beauty of Club Fido for Absolute is twofold. As mentioned is it's
location, only a couple minutes from our main training grounds. But
moreover, since Absolute is a primary client, your dog derives all
the benefits of Club Fido for being part of the Absolute team.
We
think that you will agree, our kennel,
Club Fido Lodge and Resort is
Absolutely a first class facility!
