Kugae Green 1lb Training Dummy

Introducing the Kugae 1lb Canvas Training Dummy, an essential tool for training all gundog breeds. Designed with both durability and functionality in mind, this dummy is made from tough, high-quality 15oz canvas, ensuring it can withstand the rigours of outdoor training sessions. The fabric is not only robust but also waterproof, making it ideal for use in various weather conditions, whether you’re training in wet fields, by the water, or in muddy terrain.

The Kugae training dummy is filled to provide the correct feel in your dog’s mouth, helping to simulate the experience of carrying game. This is crucial in developing a gundog’s retrieving skills, ensuring they carry the dummy with a soft, controlled grip. The weighted design of the dummy, at 1lb, offers an optimal balance, making it suitable for training all sizes of gundog breeds, from smaller Spaniels to larger Retrievers.

Equipped with a brass eyelet, this dummy is built for longevity. The eyelet not only adds to the dummy’s durability but also provides a secure point for attaching a lead or line if needed. Additionally, the dummy features a toggle, making it easy to throw during training exercises. This feature allows you to achieve longer distances and varied throwing angles, which are essential for building your dog’s tracking and retrieval skills in different scenarios.

How to Use the Canvas Training Dummy

Using the Kugae 1lb Canvas Training Dummy is straightforward and effective for enhancing your gundog’s training. Begin by introducing the dummy to your dog in a controlled environment, allowing them to become familiar with its texture and weight. Start with short throws, encouraging your dog to retrieve the dummy and bring it back to you. Praise and reward your dog when they return the dummy correctly, reinforcing positive behaviour.

As your dog progresses, increase the distance of your throws and vary the terrain to simulate more challenging conditions. The waterproof nature of the dummy means you can confidently use it in wet or muddy areas, which is particularly beneficial for training water retrieves. The toggle makes it easy to achieve the necessary throwing distance and direction, helping your dog develop their tracking skills.

For advanced training, you can attach a lead or line to the brass eyelet, allowing you to control the dummy’s movement further or to introduce more complex training exercises. This can be particularly useful in teaching your dog to remain steady until given the command to retrieve.

In summary, the Kugae 1lb Canvas Training Dummy is a versatile and durable tool, perfect for training gundogs of all breeds. Its thoughtful design and high-quality materials ensure it will be a reliable part of your training kit, helping to develop your dog’s retrieving skills effectively.
