The Dog & Field Dead Bird Dummy - Grouse is a full-body training dummy from the Original Clone range, printed in high-definition photographic detail from a real red grouse's feather pattern - the bird most associated with the UK's driven moors and the Glorious Twelfth start to the season. Like the rest of the range, it carries a shaped head, wings and tail rather than a flat canvas roll, so a dog working the butts or walking up over heather learns to pick up and carry a genuinely awkward shape rather than a simple roll dummy. The floppy head and loose wings ask the dog to think about mouth placement, and the fabric is chosen to hold scent, so nose work is trained alongside the retrieve itself. It suits a static ground retrieve or a thrown marked fall for dogs learning to mark birds dropping over open moorland, and comes with a throw toggle fitted. Part of the wider Original Clone range covering the UK's main game species.
