“Socializing” your puppy is very important to the overall development of the dog. The proper way to socialize the pup is to take him to new places daily or weekly. It’s important that everything is positive. A positive first experience in new places will establish a good expectation in the dog that new places and new people are good. Make sure you carry treats, using them to keep the experiences fun and exciting for him. Lowes, Home Depot, Tractor Supply, PetCo and PetSmart all allow dogs on leash in the buildings. These are ideal places to socialize your pup. Make sure he gets time to play with new dogs on a weekly basis too. Texas Duck Dogs specializes in Socializing your Puppy. Contact Wade and he will help you turn your pup into the sociable and trainable dog you have always desired.
Wade & Lauren Cashion are the owners of Texas Duck Dogs. The Cashion family has been working with hunting dogs in Texas since the 1800’s. Hunting and hunting dogs have been part of the Cashion family tradition for the last 5 generations.
From the time Wade could walk he was with his dad and granddad at the kennel, on weekend hunting competitions, and to many field trails. He grew up riding on the tail gate, telling stories around the hunting camp fire, and chasing dogs through the woods. At the age of 16 a dramatic event occurred in Wade’s life, one that changed his future forever. Wade went on his first duck hunt!! For his 18th birthday his dad bought him his first Labrador Retriever. It took a few months of reading, watching videos, and asking questions, but by the time duck season rolled around, Wade’s lab Sandy was ready to hunt. Wade has always been the type to include his friends on his hunting adventures. After they watched Sandy working in the field, they started asking Wade to train their dogs too. Wade took in his first dog training client at the age of 18. He used this skill to supplement his income all though college. Over the years his skill and ability has grown. In 2012 he began competing in AKC Hunt Tests. Since those early days of training Sandy his passion for training retrievers has grown. Texas Duck Dogs was born out of that passion!
