We train Justus with the dogs at Wind River's Kennel & Koeberlein's Hunting Preserve.
The Koeberleins have over 150 acres in a licensed hunting preserve and are breeders of the Wind River line of german shorthaired pointers. They train all breeds of dogs, specializing in the pointing variety. Having the opportunity to drive out and utilize their expertise on a daily basis while training our dog has been a blessing.
Our dogs compete against a standard in AKC Hunt Tests, and we currently train them for the master hunter level. In the final stages of their training we will run them in the senior hunter tests, and then, following, the master hunter tests.
"The purpose of Hunting Tests for dogs of the Pointing Breeds is to afford an opportunity for a person to demonstrate a dog's ability to perform in a manner consistent with the demands of actual hunting conditions. Testing gauges the dog's natural hunting ability and training."
