whats your price range>?
May 24, 2012 at 4:05 am #120830Call Terry Holzinger at Holzinger Kennels. Terry is the resident trainer at the Horse & Hunt Club in Savage and I have had my last two GSP’s trained by him.
Couldn’t have asked for better results and the pricing is fairly affordable as well.

Justin are they pretty affordable? I have heard many good things about them.

May 24, 2012 at 6:34 pm #120843price under 1500 if possible for aa full training with birds
May 31, 2012 at 3:15 pm #120914I think I am going this route too for my new pointer. She’s too much for me to handle. I have a msg in to Holzinger now.
July 13, 2012 at 7:47 pm #121399I dropped my pup off at Holzingers today. Not what I was expecting but Im confident they know what they are doing.
July 16, 2012 at 12:26 am #121412i called them and the price was to high for me. I found a guy in Portage, WI that was cheaper and is doing a great job. Going down this week agian to see the progress

I met the owner this weekend. He put on a demonstration at family club event. His dogs were impressive.
July 27, 2012 at 4:12 pm #121606I picked my dog up today for the weekend after two weeks of bird intro. He ran her through the field and showed me what she has learned with several quail. Fired shotgun over her with no problem. Her bird drive is intense. I think everything is going to work out.
August 3, 2012 at 3:50 pm #121803Final week 3. Picked her up today. They hunted 3 quail and 1 pheasant over her. She is definitely a bird dog. Flushed and retrieved them all. Intro to birds took 3 weeks and came to $1200. With 7 weeks of obedience training before getting back to birds I will have to call it quits and continue myself. The distance and expense is beyond my means. I cannot thank Terry Holzinger enough for his patience and profesionalism. He knows what he’s doing and I credit his patience for working through my dogs sensitivities. I would recommend him to anyone.

So she is a lot like her master.
Glad the training went well!August 3, 2012 at 6:12 pm #121809I should add that my cost was a little higher than normal because I left her there over two weekends and the extra week also meant twice as many training birds.

Funny guy. She was jumpy to the flush and gunfire. Terry worked her through it masterfully. She still jumped back when that pheasant flushed today but charged right back. Like he said her bird instinct pulls her through all the rough spots. If I can train control I think she will be very good.
