School of dog training - handling

The George Hickox School of Dog Training
for Owners and Their Dogs

"Dogs and hunters alike are only as good as their training. George Hickox is one of those rare people who are equally adept at training dogs to be good hunters and teaching hunters to be good dog handlers - all at the same time. You can't ask for much better than that."

Through their personalized, hands-on approach, George and his staff have helped hunters and their dogs reach excellence in training for well over a decade. Beginning trainers have learned how to train their young dogs into truly praise worthy hunting companions. More experienced trainers have learned how to bring their already impressive hunting companions to even greater standards of excellence. Under George's guidance and with the help of his time-tested training methods, students are immersed in a comprehensive program covering all aspects of training the pointing, flushing, and retrieving breeds for upland hunting.

Testimonials

"My first hunting dog and what to do? I read a lot of books and talked to many "experts." I was lost and knew I needed a training program. Taking George's school granted clarity. The school provided the education and principle to take my dog to a high level including a NAVHDA Utility Test Prize One and qualify her for the National Invitational. With the foundation provided I had the confidence I was on the right track and allowed me to really enjoy my training. I've added 3 George Hickox bird dogs to my first dog- a Setter, a Pointer, and a Lab. Each one has a ton of talent and is a great hunting and personal companion. It's lots of fun when your buddies want to hunt with your dogs!"
