"Take Your Spaniel Hunting Days"

You can spend time training your dog, learning new techniques and you will also get a chance to do some pheasant hunting on a 120-acre game farm near Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. Pigeons, hen pheasants and chuckar are available for training. Rooster Pheasant are available for hunting. Roosters are $15 each and training birds range from $5.00 to $10.00 each.

Hunting/training days are open to whoever would like to attend. They are held at the Springer Valley Game Farm in Van Dyne, WI (central Wisconsin).Everyone gets a chance to hunt with their dogs and also get in some good training. Don't worry if you do not shoot, gunners will be available for you if needed. Roosters are released for the hunt on the 120 acre game farm. While people are hunting, the rest of the group stays back and uses a training field to work with their dogs. We all help each other and have a great time!
