  • Readiness for Testing and Trialing

    Readiness for Testing and Trialing
    Jul 30 2025
    How do you figure out if your dog is ready to enter a hunt test or field trial? In this episode, I break down what readiness really means. From evaluating your dog’s skills to assessing your own confidence and long-term goals, I’ll walk you through key questions to ask yourself before signing up. I also share how time constraints and mental preparedness play a role in deciding when to enter—or hold back. I hope you find this episode useful whether you are entering your very first event or an advanced level test or trial.

  • Full Time RV Life with Kelli Aitken-Thompson

    Full Time RV Life with Kelli Aitken-Thompson
    Jul 9 2025
    In this episode, I sit down with Kelli—an Irish Setter breeder, handler, and passionate field trialer who has fully embraced the bird dog lifestyle. What sets Kelli apart is the adventurous path she and her husband have chosen: living full-time in their RV as they travel the country training, hunting, and competing with their dogs. We talk about how she first got involved with Irish Setters, what sparked her interest in field trials, and what it took to transition to life on the road. Kelli shares a refreshing perspective on what it means to go “all in” on your passion—and how that decision has shaped her life with her dogs. You can visit Kelli's website at https://www.quantonas.com, follow her on Instagram at @quantonas_irish, or find her on Facebook at Kelli Aitken-Thompson. Her husband, Clayton's, YouTube channel is @RedbeardOutdoors-IrishSetters. -- The Accidental Bird Dog Podcast is sponsored by onX Hunt and Elevate Pet Provisions.

  • Getting Picked Up in Field Trials

    Getting Picked Up in Field Trials
    Jun 25 2025
    So whose dog has gotten picked up in a field trial before?! If you run field trials, it's pretty much inevitable that your dog is going to get picked up at some point, no matter how well trained they are. In this episode, I discuss different ways that can get your dog picked up in AKC field trial gun dog stakes. I also go into detail about Zara's field trial career and explain the times that she has gotten picked up. I've heard from listeners that people like to hear these personal stories and how I've learned from mistakes I've made, so hopefully you find this useful! -- The Accidental Bird Dog Podcast is sponsored by OnX Hunt and Elevate Pet Provisions.
