HANDLER TRAINING

​

Benson's Kennel Handler Training class provides students with more than a basic education; students are offered the knowledge and skills needed to be a rabbit dog trainer. The broad scope of the class immediately prepares handlers to begin training rabbit dogs upon completion.  Our goal is to provide you with proven training technics and knowledge to jump start your ability to train quality hounds.  A quality handler can produce quality rabbit dogs.
