Training

 

When you're in a blind or in the field, there's no time to worry whether your dog is up to the task. With Starlight training, you can rest assured your hunting companion will perform expertly to all your commands so you can focus on the joy of hunting. We can promise this because your dog won't leave until it has mastered our 3,300-acre training grounds in Norco, California, complete with carious cover and 26 duck ponds. That means every Starlight dog is field-tested and ready to hunt immediately.
