I know plenty of good retriever trainers -- our hunting club is full of them. It's a patriotic bunch and I bet any number of them would love to get this sort of opportunity --
Our annual meeting is coming up in July.
Maybe we should bring this up, if we can find somebody who can connect the right folks together. I bet the club could sponsor the training of several pups. We have a Young Hunters program, and the UKC/HRC has a Puppy Scholarship program. Something might be done.
That would be wonderful! Go for it! Keep us posted on what transpires.
