Dokken Dead Fowl Training Dummy - Bobtail Quail
The Dokken Bobwhite Quail Dead Fowl Trainer is a must-have for anyone training bird dogs. Crafted to replicate the size, weight, and feel of a real quail, this training dummy provides a lifelike experience that helps dogs develop the proper techniques needed for retrieving wild game. Designed to discourage bad habits like shaking and chewing, the Dokken Bobtail Quail helps dogs learn to retrieve with a soft mouth, which is essential for handling birds in the field.
Key Features:
Realistic Design: The Dokken Bobtail Quail dummy mimics the look, feel, and movement of a real quail, offering an authentic training experience. The soft urethane body feels natural for dogs to carry, while the hard, non-palatable head and feet discourage rough handling and encourage proper technique.
Scent-Injectable Foam Body: The dummy’s foam body can be injected with scent to enhance the realism of your training. Whether you’re using a quail scent or another bird scent, this feature provides an added layer of realism to help your dog refine their scent detection and retrieving abilities.
Durable and Floats: Made from tough, high-quality materials, the Dokken Bobtail Quail is designed to withstand the rigors of field and water training. It floats, making it perfect for waterfowl training, while still providing the durability needed for land-based exercises.
Hard, Free-Swinging Head: The hard head of the Bobtail Quail is engineered to swing freely, simulating the movement of a real bird and helping your dog perfect their retrieval technique. This feature encourages dogs to carry the dummy properly and prevents the shaking behavior that can be problematic during real hunting scenarios.
Realistic Weight: At about 12 inches long and 10 inches around, the Dokken Bobtail Quail is roughly two and a half times the size of a real quail, making it an ideal training tool for dogs to handle birds of all sizes. The realistic weight ensures that your dog practices with a dummy that closely matches the heft of an actual bird.
