I am in need of a duck dog trainer baddly. I have a 7 month old yellow lab male who I was going to send off to the owner of his dam to train him. But I called today to set up the dates of when to send him and he told me he would not be able to train him due to lung cancer and starting treatment. I have had plans since this pup was 2 months to send him and now I am in a bind trying to find a trainer to send him to.

He is already started. He will sit, stay, fetch off his name, kinda mark birds( I have not worked on blind retreives bc I dont know how to) He use to return it to my hand but now he is kinda dropping the bird a little early. I am looking for a trainer who I dont have to pay a grand a month to send him to bc I dont have that kind of money. the guy I was going to send him to would of charged me $200 a month but now I really on the look out for a good trainer. thanks for your time.

You're gonna be hard pressed to find a good trainer for $200. If you can afford to spend more than that let me know and I can provide you with names & numbers.

Depends in what your looking for and if you looking for
someone close. I have only 2 experience with trainers.
If you just want a dynamite hunting partner then I suggest
Beatty Kennels of Ruston, La. They are good and we had
2 from them that were phenomenal.
If you are wanting to do ukc & AKC hunt tests to get titles
that is another story. My dog Freak is doing that but he is being
trained by my buddy in Mississippi. A top quality trainer
will cost around 500 or more in my experience.

Try Kirk Wichman at Hidden Lakes Retrievers. He is in Anderson east of College Station. I am pleased with my dog he trained and still board my boy with him during vacation trips.
