Colorado Gun Dogs

What Makes Colorado Gun Dogs Special

Colorado dog training is made available for hunting dogs. Most of the dogs used in hunting are labs, but other breeds are used as well. In Colorado dog training, the hunting dogs learn essential training techniques to assist their owners when hunting game. The dogs are highly intelligent and pick up on the learning skills quickly. For labs, they are bred for hunting, along with being man's best friend. They are among the most loyal and obedient breeds. The basics the dogs learn in Colorado dog training are simple commands such as their name, heel, sit, down, here, kennel, and quiet. Once they understand the commands, they learn what the whistle commands by using a silent whistle that only a dog can hear. They learn how to retrieve and bring back the game to the owner, and they have the most fun learning first hand because they are always so eager to go to work.


Colorado gun dogs are another word for bird dogs or hunting dogs. Their mission is to retrieve the game once the hunter shoots down the birds. There are different types of Colorado gun dogs. They are broken up into three categories. There are the retrievers, pointing dogs, and flushing dogs. Other breeds are among the different types, as certain breeds do better than others for various tasks. Retrievers are bred for getting the game once shot down. The pointing dogs act as scouts to lead the hunter to the birds. Their actions stop, and they freeze as though they are pointing with their nose. Flushing dogs are trained to run into the flock and have them scatter so the hunter can get a clear shot of the birds as they fly upward.
