My vision for the Upland Disciple Podcast is to bring you face to face with some of the best bird dog trainers in the world, diving in to their methods, styles, tips, tricks, and tools to help make you a better dog trainer and assist in the overall develop of your bird dog! Each episode will highlight a different trainer or method OR will have an understudy who has used a method who will share his or her story of training bird dogs in the way of the greats! I hope all of us can take at least a small nugget of training goodness away from each and every episode! Happy trialing and hunting friends!
