Gemma has the privilege of being a passionate gundog trainer with her own business AC Gundogs based in the stunning New Forest.
Gemma's journey with gundogs began many years ago and has evolved into a lifelong commitment to training these incredible animals both for her own fieldwork and to assist valued clients.

Gemma found herself drawn to the world of gundogs from a young age, as she was captivated by the intelligence, agility, and loyalty of gundogs.

Growing up on her family run shoot, her first dog, a beautiful wire-haired Hungarian Vizsla named Rizla, was the catalyst for what has become Gemma's life's work. Rizla was not just a pet; he was her partner in the field. Training him was a journey of discovery, filled with challenges and triumphs that taught Gemma the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding the unique personality of each dog. The bond they developed was profound, and it sparked a desire to share this experience with others.

Gemma currently has Spook a Working Cocker, Remi a Korthals Griffon, Gwen a Lab and Ody a Dalmatian. Over the years, Gemma has honed her training techniques, to develop a comprehensive training program tailored to the needs of each dog and their owner.
Her philosophy is positive reinforcement, creating a supportive and encouraging environment where dogs can thrive.
She has decades of experience training and more importantly working gundogs.

"Training gundogs is not just a profession for me; it is a passion that infuses every aspect of my life. I am continually inspired by the dedication and resilience of these remarkable animals and the joy they bring to their handlers. The journey of training a gundog is one of mutual respect and partnership, and I am grateful every day to be a part of it," said Gemma.
Whether you are an experienced handler or new to the world of gundogs, Gemma looks forward working with you and your gundog, sharing the skills and insights she's gathered over the years
