Maintaining high-quality kennels and good care for hunting dogs ensures great hunts and satisfied customers who come back time after time....
For most upland gamebird hunters, the dog is what truly makes the hunt. People love to watch a well-trained hunting dog work. When they hunt close, they make the experience that much more enjoyable for the hunter. In reality, hunting dogs are athletes that must be well cared for and conditioned to perform at the level we expect. Maintaining high-quality kennels and good care for hunting dogs ensures great hunts and satisfied customers who come back time after time.
Two of the presentations at the NAGA Hunting Club Conference in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, will discuss these two subjects.
The conference kicks off on Monday afternoon, July 15, at the Best Western Ramkota. Attendees will hear from an expert on taking care of field dogs. Dr. Joe Spoo, the Gun Dog Doc, will discuss caring for our four-legged hunting companions when things go wrong. His presentation, titled "Field Emergency and First Aid for Hunting Dogs," is a highlight of the opening day of the conference. Whether just "general wear and tear in the field or an actual accident, you won't want to miss what Dr. Spoo has to say.
The following day, the canine discussion will pivot to housing as Jeff Oakes and Ty Roebuck of Fall River, Kansas. The two hail from Flink Oak Hunting Lodge, which has a national reputation for high-quality hunts. The two will share their thoughts on "Managing High Quality Kennel Operations.”
Together, these two presentations are just one part of an agenda that features several presentations on providing high-quality hunting experiences that create repeat customers.
