Trochry Gun Dogs

Breeders & Professional trainers of English Springer Spaniels, Cocker Spaniels & Labrador Retrievers.

Based in Oxfordshire, our kennels are devoted to the breeding, training and field trialing of working spaniels and retrievers which due to selective breeding programmes are by far the most popular working dogs used in the field today.

Our dogs are both trained and worked on the Blenheim Palace Estate shoots.  We appreciate that not all owners of gundogs get to see what is expected from our dogs on shooting days and our aim is to show our dogs at the Living Heritage Country Fairs in the simulated shooting environment demonstrating what is expected from a working gundog and the high standards of training that need to be achieved, also some of the basic techniques used in early training which also apply to dogs as pets.

We also train spaniels and pointing breeds to work with birds of prey, this fascinating combination of bird working with dogs can be seen in our joint display with Hawkeye falconer Chris Neal, where we will demonstrate spaniels working with Harris Hawks and how a setter works with a Falcon.

When we are not in the arena, we will be on hand at our static display where anyone can visit to see our dogs up close and we are happy to provide help and advice on any dog training issues you may have.

Back at our kennels we can provide one to one tuition with owner & pupil and we can also take dogs in for residential training.  We cater for basic obedience for those people that just want a well behaved pet, through to Gundog Training to Field Trial Standards.

Trochry Gun Dogs will be appearing at the following shows:
