#012 Join The Lab as Mississippi's own Kippy Kemp, an aficionado of dog training and field trials, brings his homespun wisdom to the mic. With stories as rich as the soil on his Brangus cattle farm, Kippy delves into the intricacies of raising champion retrievers and the community spirit found in places like Cornerstone Gundog Academy. As we swap tales of quail hunts and the changing landscapes of turkey and quail populations, you'll feel the nostalgia and passion that drive both Kippy and I.
The competitive spirit of field trials takes center stage in our conversation as we dissect the psychological edge and meticulous standards that set apart these dog events. It's not just about a dog passing a test; it's the performance, the finesse, and the deep connection between handler and canine that truly make for a winning team. From the all-age stakes to the evolution of dog sports, we explore the bond that forms when training translates to triumph, and how the love for the game transcends all.
Wrapping up our chat, we step into the kennel to uncover the daily regimens that enhance a dog's innate talents, and the patience and adaptability required in training. Kippy imparts lessons from his journey, offering a mentor's perspective on navigating the learning plateaus of puppies and the delicate art of applying pressure. We also reflect on the diverse qualities of British and American breeds, the politics behind the trials, and the camaraderie that enriches the dog training community. So sit back, and let us guide you through a world where dedication to dogs intersects with the love of the land and the thrill of competition.
