Works well. Would be 5 stars if throw rope was larger in diameter at least 3/8 inch rope. Otherwise, good product.

Well made, and she took right to it. She is 5 months old, so the large full size is about a month away from being the correct size. Dokken makes a mini mallard for smaller breeds.

This product really does help with teaching your dog a real retrieve. Made well and I believe a must for anyone wanting to help your dog go to the next level in retrieving.

Great tool for teaching young pups how to pick up and hold a big duck. The hard plastic head forces the dog to grab the dummy correctly, and prevents shaking. My nine month old, black lab Kahle will now only retrieve a dokken dead fowl dummy, or a real bird.

I found that my dog likes the dead fowl trainer more than the traditional bumpers. He rips after them and holds them longer than the canvas bumpers. I bought 4 of the dead fowl training bumpers for the advanced training at a later date.

I really like this. I will probably be in the market for a pheasant and dove version soon. How about a sale on these. I can buy them locally for the same price, but I would buy them from you again,...the sale would encourage me to do it sooner rather than later.

I had the most wonderful experience when my master threw the Mallard the first time for me, and everytime after. His wife took pictures that hit the internet with accolades from all. Thank you for a great fun and educational product, and I can't wait until we are out again running. Maybe someday we will go hunting to use the skills I will learn from the Dokken Mallard.

The Dokken is a very versatile and awesome training tool. It floats, and works awesome on land. I originally picked up 2 from a local store, and then ordered 5 more from GDS, as they are the dog specialist. These are excellent for training my 5 month old and durable as heck, so if you get a tug of war, nothing happens to the bird, and I can use to train in water and dry land. Far better than bumpers and many other toys.

Bumpers are good for training, but the dokken simulates the size of a duck and teaches the dog to open its mouth wider, instilling muscle memory. I like them a lot.

We discovered Dock Diving this summer. My girls leap further off the dock when I use this training duck. So, I should say THEY give the Mallard Duck 5 stars!

Best training tool in the bag. Just got it today, and it just amazing. I have a 1 year old black lab that is hyper and very active. She didn't like retrieving bumpers, so I bought this and very happy. Also, Tom Dokken is my favorite dog trainer. If you have a retriever or just a dog that likes to play fetch, buy this. No regrets whatsoever. Plus they have fast shipping.

I wish you didn't have to buy the knob at the end to make it easier to throw. Seems like "ease of throw" should be standard, not optional.
On the other hand, it sure got my pup ready to handle the size of real ducks when the season rolled around.

I like this retriever dummy a lot.
One thing I might add is that the foam part had some indentions on it that looked like it had been handled roughly. Not that it had been used or anything, just weird marks from the manufacturer. I hadn't seen these marks on Dokken's in the store (Academy and Bass Pro Shops) but they are holding up good, so it does not bother me anymore.
By the way, y'all are the best online dog supply store there is. I ONLY shop with y'all.

Excellent training tool, feel help with a soft mouth.
Max has learned to retrieve year round, he will do want ever it takes to get his Dokken Deadfowl duck dummy. This has reinforced his field retrieves.
I would recommend this dummy, after two years of use it is still going strong.
Time to get Max a Dokken Deadfowl goose dummy for fall.

Realistic weight and floating dummy, has a hard plastic head separate from the body which help to prevent the dog from head whipping the duck,and it is easy to apply scent to.
Only complaint is the small rope with small knot that really tears your fingers up when using it a lot.

It's holding up quite well. We've done over 200 water and 50+ rough field retrieves. Other than some teeth puncture wounds and it taking on a little water through absorption, it's good. I'll buy another another one coming up, maybe the goose this time.

The plastic head. At one practice hunt we tossed the dummy it hit the side of the bank (muddy, not hard) and the head of the duck split. Very disappointed in that. It was so sharp on the edges I haven't used it since. Otherwise the body and weight is great.

Soft body encourages proper hold, and my dog seems to really enjoy retrieving it over the standard cylinder dummies.
I've owed many of these, and the only down sides are, they are easy to destroy if you forget to put it away and your dog gets to play with them, and they can pick up some pretty bad smell if you use it in a body of water that isn't so clean, like at a dog park.

Great for dry training... water training is not advised with this product, as the material absorbs alot of water and becomes water-logged. This makes throwing much harder and also makes the dokken bird smell after a couple weeks of water work. Overall I would purchase this again for dry training, but never again for water training. I have found the avery ATB is a much better all around choice as it does not take in water and can be used on dry land as well. It does lack legs and the throwing rope may not hold up quite as well as a dokken rope but the dokken itself wont outlast its own rope. Overall I am not too happy with the Dokken...
