Proficient training courses:  Grade Four courses are aimed at those whose dogs have either passed their Grade Three award, or have reached the Grade Three standard.  One dog per handler.  Each eight week course consists of weekly one hour sessions.  Trainers will provide instruction, support and demonstrate correct techniques to help students make good progress.  Students will be expected to practice regularly at at home in between lessons.    

Small groups:  Groups will usually consist of a maximum of six students to enable proper attention to each class member and to minimise distractions to the dogs.

Courses will be held in several locations:  We will arrange courses in any area where there is both the demand and a suitable trainer.   Click here to find out if there is a course near you.....

Categories of gundog:  All Grade Four courses are suitable for retrievers. Note: There are not currently any Grade Four courses for Hunting Retrievers (spaniels) or HPRs available. If you would like to be informed when our Grade Four Hunting Retriever or HPR courses are up and running, email us.

The Grade Four standard: In order to attend this course, you will need to have taken your dog up to the standard required to pass the Grade Three field test. If you have not successfully completed a Grade Three test, please review the test standard and make sure that you are confident in your dog's ability to meet the standard in a variety of different locations, before booking a place on a Grade Four course.

If you aren't ready, take a look at the Grade Three courses.

Grade Four Test:  The final week of the course will include the Grade Four test. 

Cost:  The total cost of the course is £126 + VAT.  This includes all tuition and the Grade Four test. You will need to pay in full when you book your place on the course of your choice.  Read how to book a place here....

Dog registration:  If your dog is not already registered with The Gundog Club,  you will need to register him or her before attending a training course.   Click here to register your dog....
