Avery EZ Bird Trainer

Avery EZ Bird Retriever Training Dummies – Ducks Unlimited Official Training Tool

The Avery EZ Bird Retriever Training Dummy is designed to give young or smaller retrievers the confidence they need in the field. Scaled to two-thirds the size and weight of a full-grown bird, each dummy provides a realistic retrieving experience without overwhelming your dog.

Constructed with a durable PVC-coated body that prevents hard-mouthing and filled with dense foam for buoyancy, the EZ Bird delivers a true-to-life bird feel. A floating hard plastic head discourages thrashing, while raised V-Grip tooth locks help your dog hold the dummy securely. The embedded long-throw rope with a knob makes tossing easy on both land and water.

Perfect for training in waterfowl hunting, retriever tests (NAHRA, UKC/HRC), or NAVHDA versatile dog tests, these dummies also work great with scent training—apply scent directly to the PVC body or use elastic scent bands for extended training sessions.
