Background
Ben Garcia reckons there's one secret to dog training: "Know where you're headed and where you want your dog to end up." Ben reckons that goal is the key to shaping your best mate in the field. With this in mind, Ben treats every dog as an individual, which he reckons has led to his success as a trainer. With over 400 field trial wins and 15 Field Champions, it's fair dinkum to say that Ben knows how to bring up winners. Even with all these gongs, Ben reckons his biggest win is his training of hunting dogs for their owners. Ben trains from border to border and coast to coast. His kennels are home to nearly every breed of hunting dog. He's got a real passion for training pointing and flushing dogs. Ben's kennel is at Rocky Mountain Roosters just outside of Colorado Springs so the dogs can train on thousands of birds a year! Ben says the most rewarding bit of being a dog trainer is when the hunting season's over and the yarns about how ace the dogs were start rolling in.
Why I Use SportDOG Brand
I use SportDOG for one reason: adaptability! With every kind of personality coming in we can adjust a unit within seconds and get to work! I love the fact I can call with questions and get an answer from someone with field experience. The passion SportDOG has for a support network that has the miles and mud on their hunting boots is unlike any other e-collar company.

It all started with a yellow sheila that was owned by my Aunt and Uncle. They decided they couldn't keep her due to the amount of energy she had. I was beside myself when they let me take her home. Once we got home we went straight to work! Missing parties,...
