Episode notes
In this episode, I sit down with Brandon Whitfield, a software engineer and proficient amateur dog trainer, to discuss a variety of hunting dog topics. Brandon shares his experiences training versatile dogs, primarily German Shorthaired Pointers and his young German Wirehaired Pointer. We also dive into the unique challenges and rewards of duck hunting in icy conditions—how to prepare, what gear makes a difference, and how to ensure your dog stays safe and comfortable. Finally, we talk NAVHDA (North American Versatile Hunting Dog Association), its role in advancing hunting dog training and breeding. Tune in for an episode packed with insight and inspiration!
