Riverlily is an award-winning training school run by people who train, compete and pick up with their own dogs all year round. Every course is taught by an experienced, qualified trainer who knows what it takes to build a real partnership between gundog and handler.
FOUNDER
Abbie Reid
IABTC Qualified Dog Training Instructor · Diploma in Canine Psychology
Thousands of hands-on hours in the training field have taught Abbie one thing: every dog is different. Since founding Riverlily in 2012 she has trained gundogs of every breed, character and temperament, building a club where dogs and handlers learn together in the Hertfordshire countryside. Her own team of nine related Labradors compete in Working Tests through the summer and pick up on local shoots all winter. Training is reward-based, structured and progressive, and most lessons finish with tea and cake.

Always remember you and your dog are a team. If you are enjoying the training, I am sure your dog will be too.
