Gundog: Dog Training App

To truly master any dog training you don’t learn how to train a Dog! You learn every possible mistake there is to ensure you have the tools to correct them when you need to! So why not have the benefit of Ben Randall who over the many years of dog training has truly mastered the craft!! If it’s your first gundog like mine or your experienced and need to retrain or get the next dog perfect the BG App is with you throughout your journey. Every possible scenario is covered within the app with easy to follow step by step videos and like no other app you also get support, customer service, monthly webinars and even a extremely positive community forum to share experiences, ask for advice or questions and discuss with other users so you’re never alone. Get involved as much or as little as you like. Steve (3 Year subscriber and still loving it)

This app is just as useful for training pet dogs as working gundogs. The progression from basic training to more complex is very user friendly. It encourages you to progress at your own dogs’ pace. You also get a strong sense of achievement when you succeed which however complex your dog’s nature is, is attainable through the training videos which take you through each stage of a skill you want to teach the dog. The monthly webinar meetings are very informative as not only can you ask about a problem you may be having, you also learn from other people and their mistakes. It’s also nice in this time of limited socialising to meet people, albeit on camera, with similar interests. I have definitely benefited from using this app but more importantly so has my now 11 month old labrador pup and 5 year old dog. I have used it since I got the pup at eight weeks of age. Kay Gunn

This is a good quality resource for anyone wanting to make progress with their Gundog. We have had a trainer in the past costing over £30 for a 25min session, so this is good value and always on hand. Also their is good support from the guys behind the app should you have particular queries or issues with your training. Also invites to regular online webinars where a lot of areas are discussed further. I would like to see additions to the app going forward, such as perhaps laid out training programmes for the total layman as to what you should be mastering first before moving on to another area with your dog. As well as perhaps ratings for exercises from beginner to advanced depending on where you are with your dogs progress. As I find the app layout a little odd and I sometimes struggle to know which video I should be working on. Overall a great app and one I hope will advance both mine and my dogs training.
