Spaniel Hunting Dummy\u003c\/strong\u003e is a compact training dummy designed specifically to help develop a spaniel's hunting ability. Its small size and realistic profile make it ideal for hiding in cover, grass, brambles, hedgerows, and vegetation, encouraging your dog to use its nose rather than relying on sight alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt Kugae Gundogs, we regularly use these dummies to improve a dog's confidence when hunting difficult areas.
