Hunting Dog Training Dummy for Realistic Pheasant Retrieves on Land or Water, Featuring a Soft Foam Body and Free-Swinging Head

Give your hunting dog a more realistic pheasant retrieve during field sessions on land or water. This dead-fowl trainer combines natural dead-bird weight, a soft natural-feel foam body, and internal scenting so practice can more closely resemble handling game.

The foam body stays afloat even if punctured, keeping water retrieves moving without a sunken dummy ending the session.

Key Features

• The realistic pheasant simulation familiarizes dogs with retrieving dead birds, making it useful preparation for field work.
• Natural dead-bird weight creates a closer training stand-in for the way a pheasant feels during a retrieve.
• The hard, free-swinging head delivers a sharp wrap to the snout when aggressive shaking occurs, discouraging that unwanted behavior.
• Hard feet and head encourage a secure body hold and discourage hard mouthing, supporting cleaner carrying habits.
• Internal scenting allows the foam body to hold training scent in or out of the water, adding an odor cue to retrieve practice.
