It honestly has more to do with getting the right dog than anything and after that its just a whole lot of repetition.I would only recommend doing it yourself if you are willing to put time into her every day. Shoot me a pm and ill chat with you about what the big picture looks like if your interested.
Springer's (bench not field)have big ears, they are true water dogs. Still new to adding images will work on posting a few more with his sister Ziva. He can also track a deer blood trail. Ziva is just learning to find sheds, she is a lot brighter than Camo (ha)........ She drags one around the house all the time if I let her. Springers are funny about hanging close, about the most they will go would be about 30 yards and stop to see if your close. Took him last year for turkey just for kicks, he just laied down next to me. I watch his eyes, he saw the bird way before I did, it was a hen so passed. I wouldn't want to see him tangle with a 20# bird flopping around. Little yugo found a 2 point shed on the way out.Master Chief said:Holy crap that dog has big ears
My black lab found a little 8 point skull but he gets so excited about all the rabbits and squirrels that keeping up with him becomes a hindrance.
