About this episode
Tonight we have the pleasure of sitting down and speaking with a good buddy, Michael Demmer, of Windy Hill Retrievers and I think you're going to enjoy this one. We begin the show learning about Michael's background growing up and his time in the military and how that transitioned into his time as a cowboy... and then how he transitioned into being a dog trainer and hunting guide down south. Yeah, what a wild series of events. We talk about Michael's advice for aspiring dog trainers and how he'd recommend people getting into the gun dog world and spoiler: he doesn't think you need to be in the army, then wrangle cattle and then train dogs... there's other ways, too. We also chat with Michael about balancing hunt test weekends, training dogs, clients, travel and being a good husband and dad. We then hear about Michael's summer competing with dogs at various events and how he is preparing his dogs for The Grand and Master National this fall. Oh, and on top of all that, he is also judging at the SRS Crown. Needless to say, Michael is an incredibly hard working, motivated and talented person who deeply cares about his dogs and his family. We need more people like Michael and if you listen to this episode, I think you'll agree. Cheers to you. Are you considering force fetch but don't feel confident in doing it yourself?
