And on a shoot day, that gap shows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe head flops. The wings catch. The tail drags. A dog that's spent six months retrieving a smooth white cylinder suddenly has to think about mouth placement in a way it's never had to before - and that hesitation, that fumble on the pick-up, that dropped bird at delivery - it's not stubbornness. It's just never been asked to do it before. This dummy fixes that before September, not during it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Dog \u0026amp; Field Original Clone Partridge Dummy is built around the three things your dog actually uses in the field. Sight - the ultra-HD photographic feather print is as close to a real red-legged partridge as a training dummy gets. Accurate body size, realistic shape, full head, wings and tail. When it drops from the sky as a mark or sits in rough grass as a static retrieve, your dog marks it like the real thing. Because it looks like the real thing. Smell - the fabric holds scent. Clip it to your game bag, leave it where birds have been, run it through cover. It builds up scent memory your dog can work with. Touch - this is the one handlers always underestimate. Getting the pick-up right on a bird with a floppy head and spread wings is a skill. Learn it in a training field with no pressure, not on a driven day with a full peg line watching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLog throw toggle and ball grip included, so it handles cleanly in the field. It throws well, sits realistically on landing, and your dog has to commit to a proper retrieve every time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe use these at Kirkbourne. They work. If your dog is heading onto a partridge shoot this season and hasn't trained with one yet, that's the thing to sort first.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kirkbourne Gundog Supplies","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54983757365591,"sku":null,"price":19.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1038\/4231\/6631\/files\/dog-field-partridge-dead-bird-dummy-kirkbourne-spaniels.jpg?v=1789656181","url":"https:\/\/kirkbournegundogs.co.uk\/products\/products-partridge-dead-bird-dummy-realistic-gundog-training","provider":"Kirkbourne Gundog Supplies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
