Whether you’re refining basic commands or preparing for more serious fieldwork, this all-in-one kit delivers durability, consistency, and control for larger working dogs.

What’s Included

Each component in this pack has been thoughtfully selected to support responsiveness, motivation, and real-world gundog handling.

8mm Slip Lead

This strong, secure lead is perfect for larger breeds learning heelwork and lead response. It offers comfort in hand and control during movement.

Training Collar

Use this collar to reinforce key commands and increase your dog’s focus during structured sessions. It’s especially helpful when teaching steadiness and self-control.

Acme 211.5 Whistle

Produces a clear and consistent tone, ideal for both recall and directional control—particularly at greater distances.

Kugae Waterproof Long Lead

Built to withstand all weather, this robust lead allows you to practise controlled recalls, long-distance stops, and steady work without sacrificing mobility.

Lanyard

Keep your whistle easily accessible throughout your training. This ensures you can communicate with speed and consistency, especially when timing is crucial.

2 x 1/2lb Dummies

Sized for larger puppies and young adults, these canvas dummies are great for encouraging confident retrieves.
Note: Prints may vary.

Rabbit Faux Fur Ball

Adds scent and texture to your training, helping to spark natural retrieve drive and hunting behaviour. It’s especially effective in the early stages of fieldwork.

Built for Training in Any Environment

Whether you're working in the field, training in the garden, or heading to the shooting ground, this pack helps bridge the gap between early gundog development and more advanced handling. Its tools are not only reliable—they’re purpose-built for larger breeds with greater physical strength and energy.

Detailed Product Descriptions

Slip Lead (8mm)

This dependable, easy-to-handle lead helps you establish reliable heelwork and general control. While lightweight, it’s built to endure the strength of larger dogs.
Note: Colour may vary.

Training Collar

Designed to prevent running in, this collar works by making the dog believe it is still on lead—without restricting movement. When used with a clip or long lead, it allows quick and seamless release for training purposes.

Acme 211.5 Whistle

Top trainers worldwide trust this whistle for its clarity and efficiency. The patented sound chamber ensures a brighter tone with less air. Consequently, you gain better control and flexibility over your dog’s commands, even across distance. The comfort grip also means it’s easy to use in any environment—wet, dry, warm, or cold.

Kugae Waterproof Long Lead

With a reach of 9 metres, this lead helps you train dogs at a distance while maintaining safety and consistency. Its smooth PVC surface slides through thick vegetation without catching. You can attach it directly to Kugae slip leads or training collars.

Lanyard

This lightweight, durable lanyard keeps your whistle close and secure, so you’re always ready to issue a command. It’s an essential addition for those wanting to maintain prompt responses in the field.

2 x 1/2lb Dummies

Each dummy features a high-definition feather-print canvas designed to trigger your dog’s visual, tactile, and scent-based instincts. These are perfect for honing retrieve drive and steadiness.
Note: Dummy prints may vary.

Rabbit Faux Fur Ball

This engaging tool mimics the look and feel of real fur while encouraging your dog to explore scent and texture. Use it for fun, short retrieves or to gently introduce lifelike scenarios that prepare your dog for real game.

In Summary

This Retriever Training Pack provides a complete, field-tested selection of tools to help you move your large-breed gundog from early obedience into more advanced, purpose-driven work. Every item has been selected to support your training with strength, reliability, and confidence.
