Some of the many obstacles that amateur trainers may face are access to property necessary for the various stages of training and the tools & equipment needed to advance their dogs.

TRAINING GROUNDS: ASD utilizes the surrounding properties as well as the facilities at home to implement enriched training drills.  We recognize the need to lengthen our dog's abilities and as such have partnered with local landowners and gun & rod clubs to expand our access to feature-rich training grounds.

EQUIPMENT:  The right tools used at the right time enhance a trainer's ability to progress dogs.  These tools can be expensive, cumbersome to store, and in some cases not worth the effort.  Click here to learn more about what's in ASD's toolbag.
