Dummy training has its origins in hunting and is becoming increasingly popular as a way of keeping dogs of all breeds busy. Hunting-like situations are simulated and dummies are used instead of real game.
Dummy work includes other exciting training elements in addition to retrieving. It is a varied and challenging activity in which the dog is allowed to use all its senses and is challenged both mentally and physically.
Dummy training also includes various elements of hunting behavior such as focusing, chasing, picking up and carrying back objects. These elements make perfect sense as an activity for dogs with hunting ambitions and offer an exciting alternative.
But you can also benefit from many elements of dummy work in everyday life: Footwork, recall and stopping at a distance are just a few examples.
All retrieving dogs are welcome, regardless of breed, origin or size.
