South Dakota Wild Bird Summer Camps

Our Summer camp is a great adventure for your dog! Over the course of the Summer we spend approximately two months of working wild game and conditioning on the prairies,, with a third month working varied grounds, running local trials, the VCA National Field trial and some realtime hunting exposure.  We secure multiple leases in order to ensure the dogs see a different course each day of the week and to keep the pressure low on the birds.  This is a unique and outstanding opportunity for your dog. Dogs of all ages will benefit from this camp. The young ones learn how to search and find plentiful wild birds and the more advanced dogs can really polish up. Space is limited so if interested, book early.

In 2012 we took a dog to Summer camp that had a number of issues with catching birds in trials, and a tough handle.  After a summer on the Prairie, he culminated his trial season with a win of the Vizsla Club of America's National Gundog Championship.  We can't guarantee that result for every dog obviously, but it certainly maximized Tucker's Potential.  Give your dog the Prairie Advantage.  Book today.

We leave California for Camp the last week in July and begin running dogs the first week of August.  The dogs will get two months of intensive work dependent upon their personal need and the goal of the Owner.  We have not only ample wild birds, but also Johnny house quail for young dogs and to proof trial dogs on released bird issues.

Space is strictly limited.  Cost for this camp is $3,000 including birds, feed and transportation if traveling from our California facility or pickup enroute.  Individual transport to and from South Dakota from other points is at Owner's cost.  Any requisite veterinary costs and entry fees additional.

Dogs must be current on all vaccinations including rattlesnake vaccine, heartworm preventative, have a health inspection by a licensed Veterinarian within 10 days prior to camp.  For more information, please contact us at info@willowyndranch.com
