We normally bring about eight dogs, some fully trained, some partly trained and one or two untrained. This allows us to demonstrate how a trained gundog team works together. Then we can show the basic steps of training young dogs and puppies at various levels of training. We find this is always a good crowd puller as the training for young gundogs is the same as for a pet dog. Also if time permits we like to involve children in the display.</FONT></P> <P><FONT FACE="Arial"></FONT></P> <TABLE WIDTH="100%"> <TR> <TD><IMG SRC="Image2.jpg" ALT="{short description of image}" WIDTH="400" HEIGHT="283"></TD> <TD><IMG SRC="Shoot1.jpg" ALT="{short description of image}" WIDTH="350" HEIGHT="283"></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="+1">The Great Yorkshire Show</FONT></TD> <TD><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="+1">Dogs at work at Murton Grange - <BR> one of the premier high bird shoots</FONT></TD> </TR> </TABLE> <P><FONT FACE="Arial"></FONT></P> <P><FONT FACE="Arial">The larger shows that we have covered include Newark and Nottingham, Herts County, East of England, Great Yorkshire, Alnwick Castle as well as many smaller one day shows..</FONT></P> <P><FONT FACE="Arial"><FONT FACE="Arial"></FONT>When not in the ring we have a static display so that the public can come along and see our dogs and discuss any training problems they may be having with their own dogs.</FONT></P> <P><FONT FACE="Arial">Our working gundogs are Labradors and Spaniels.</FONT></P> <P><FONT FACE="Arial">Links to the rest of the site for old web browsers:</FONT></P> <P><A HREF="displays.htm">Displays</A><BR> <A HREF="training.htm">Training</A><BR> <A HREF="stud.htm">Stud Dogs</A><BR> <A HREF="contact.htm">Contact</A> <A HREF="DVD2016.html">New Gundog Training DVD</A></P> <P><FONT FACE="Arial">Local 5 day <A HREF="http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/uk/yh/leeming_forecast_weather.html">weather forecast from the Met office</A> (RAF Leeming)</FONT></P> <TABLE> <TR> <TD COLSPAN="10" WIDTH="1160" ALIGN="CENTER">Last updated 23rd January 2007 by <A HREF="mailto:webmaster@nezumi.demon.co.uk">Martin Brown</A></TD> </TR> </TABLE> <P><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="-3" COLOR="#FFFFFF">Les Dixon trains Gundogs, Gun Dog, Trainer, Harsley, Harlsey, Rountons, Northallerton, North, Yorkshire, Display Team, Stud dogs, Labradors, Fox red, Springer Spaniels, Mount Grace, Mountgrace, Obedience, Retriever, Shooting, Grouse, Pheasant, Quail, Partridge, DVD, Video</FONT></P>
