Dokken Dead Fowl Trainer, Canada Goose
Invented by Tom Dokken, the Dead Fowl Trainers stand as a testament to his innovative vision. These trainers are designed to educate dogs on the proper techniques of holding and carrying game birds. The product features a soft, durable body that can be injected with scent for a more authentic experience. The body is book-ended by hard ends, replicating the head and tail of a bird.
A unique aspect of this product is its hard, free-swinging head that serves a dual purpose. It not only adds to the realism of the trainer but also serves to correct aggressive head shaking in dogs. If a dog shakes the trainer too aggressively, the hard head delivers a sharp wrap to the snout, discouraging such behaviors.
Dokken Dog Supply, Inc. has built its reputation on this patented design, which forms the backbone of all Dokken's Dead Fowl Trainers. By training with the Dokken Dead Fowl Trainer, Canada Goose, you can ensure that your dog is well-prepared and nothing is left to chance. Elevate your dog's retrieving skills to the next level with this lifelike, high-quality training tool.
After field sessions, wipe the exterior to remove dirt and odor traces, then air-dry away from direct heat to preserve material integrity. Reapply a compatible scent to maintain realistic retrieve cues, and rotate use with other tools to prevent overstressing the dog or the trainer. Regular checks for loose seams or wear on transitions between ends help avoid unexpected failures in training scenarios. The construction supports repeated handling during mark-and-retrieve drills and field trials, reinforcing proper mouth hold and controlled carries under varied conditions. In practice, the device serves as a realistic, durable surrogate for live game during drills, helping dogs develop consistent grip, head height, and steady retrieve behavior. Proceed with field-use only as part of a structured training plan.
