ON POINT OUTFITTERS BIRD DOG TRAINING
BIRD DOG TRAINING (Call 724-322-7864)
We own and operate a full service training facility for pointing and flushing dogs. We provide professional bird dog training to compliment your dog and your style of hunting. We can help guide you through the process or we can do it all for you at a very reasonable price. We also keep your cost down by keeping the dog only as long as needed to get the job done. Most trainers quote a specific time to train all dogs on a given task regardless of each dogs own natural ability. We will evaluate your dogs natural ability for free and will then tell you what you can expect to have in the training.
We have worked with and trained many dogs that have excelled or won in hunt tests, NAVHDA, Shoot to Retrieve and Cover dog trials. However, most of the dogs we train and sell are simply used as foot hunting bird dogs and family companions. Whether you simply need assistance starting a new pup or wanting to improve your current bird dog, we have the experience, equipment, and facility to help you. We develop our own dogs to hunt wild birds and will design a training program for your bird dog that is specific to the type of hunting that you will be doing.
We manage over 1000 acres that has been developed to promote wild birds for bird dog training and hunting on a year round basis. We are easily accessible and have many clients from Maryland, West Virginia, Ohio, and Virginia. We can get your dog experience handling grouse, woodcock, coveys of quail, and wild pheasant on our property. We can provide your dog with more hunting experience in one week on wild birds than you can provide in a year of hunting. Your dog will enjoy it stay in our climate controlled kennels and will be worked on a daily basis. Your dog will come home as an accomplished hunter and in better hunting shape than when it arrived. Many owners schedule their dogs to stay with us when they are away on vacation or business.
We also now offer the ability to stay on the farm with your dog and participate in the training sessions. For those owners who can't bear the thought of leaving their dog at a kennel, we now offer you the opportunity to stay on the farm through the training process. Enjoy a wonderful country style vacation on our farm while your dog becomes an accomplished hunter. Ride the horses, swing on the porch, or just watch the sun set on the fields while the deer and turkey feed before dark. Spend a few days, a week, or even longer participating in the training of your dog and enjoying all of the scenic opportunities that the Laurel Mountains have to offer.
We invite each person to visit our facility to see first hand what we can provide or we can provide references upon request on the quality training experience we provide.WILD BIRD CAMP
Each fall, On-Point Outfitters take trips to Michigan, Iowa, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, North Dakota, and other destinations to hunt and train on wild birds. Besides our own young dogs, we take 2 or 3 client dogs to get them valuable work on wild birds. We will take your dog with us to gain the practical experience on the bird of your choice. Whether you hunt your dog on grouse, woodcock, quail, huns, prairie chickens, or pheasants, we have a trip that will get your dog valued experience on the type of bird you hunt. Space is limited on trips so reservations are taken on a first come first serve basis.
