Nithvalley Gundogs is a small gundog training kennels based in the Scottish borders. We specialise in training English springer spaniels, Cocker spaniels and Labradors for field trials and working in the shooting fields.
News from Shooting Times
Our ultimate aim is to produce a happy well socialised Gundog that can be worked competently in all shooting situations and ultimately compete at a high standard in the field.
Dog Training
A small limited number of dogs are taken in for rabbit shooting experience between july and october, this is by pre arrangement and only for dogs which are trained to a good standard.
.
We occasionally breed a litter of pups from a proven working bitch to a specially selected stud dog, hopefully to improve the working ability of the breed. We only breed pups out of a bitch if we wish to keep one or more of the pups for ourselves.
Occaisionaly young dogs which have been trained with a view to competing in trials don´t quite make the grade and are then found a suitable working home.
