Dokken Mallard Adds Excitement
April 11, 2025
The Dokken mallard duck has added excitgement for my dog for our training and been a big help in training him to get a proper hold on a larger duck. Being able to inject scent has also been a plus in training to find duck on a blind retrieve.

Favorite Pool Toy

I buy two ducks a year, one for each dog. One for the Lab and one for the Springer Spaniel. This is their favorite pool toy and they do not put them down. They get used about 5 days a week and year around.

Must Have
May 10, 2023
Great product...we use extensively when training marking skills. Consistent throws out of our Zinger Winger launchers or for that matter when hand thrown. Just really nice change up when your dog needs a little change up or extra excitement to push through tough sessions. Naturally improves dogs mouth habits when retrieving so that is great bonus. Dogs just love them!!!

Really like these for certain training aspects. Very visable in the air and on the ground and a bit smaller than the mallards and thus launch out of the wingers farther.

Great realistic trainer
April 21, 2023
My dog loves this...she likes to carry it around after retrieving it.
I can't say how much the addition of scent helped, but she does seem to find it readily in dense cover.
She has a tendency to hold cylindrical dummies by the flap on the end where the rope attaches, but she holds this dummy on the main part of the body...the design including the hard head and feet promote that.

Dokken is the gold standard for trainers
April 20, 2023
I am very pleased with my Dokken training ducks. Initially purchased the smaller size for my very young pup. She has grown quickly and is now 4.5 months old and ready for a full size bird. She was a bit puzzled on the first retrieve as the dummy had grown, but quickly figured out the right placement in her mouth and she was so pleased bringing it back!

Excellent life size looking piece! The detail is excellent. Only suggestion is to add a throwing “knob” at the end of the duck’s rope to more easily thrown.

Like the weight and size; Don't like the lack of knob on the rope
January 2, 2023
Like the size, but without a knob on the end of the rope, it's difficult to really throw as far as a bumper.

The Dokken training dummy is my Lab's first choice in dummies to retrieve. It's about the size of a real duck (her true favorite retrieve). When we are heading out to do some retrieves, she always looks at the cabinet where the Dokken is kept.

Excellent Training dummies for real feel and grabbing the correct area for retrieves. I use this bigger size for older dogs and this color for visibility purposes.

While we haven’t used these in water yet (ponds and small lakes are frozen over), we are using this duck in the house for the older dogs to get used to the weight and balance of it. So far the dogs love it and will retrieve it.

Extremely realistic in every detail from the weight and size, to the way it sits in the water, all the way down to the waterfowl band on the foot. Couldn't be happier. Seems very sturdy and should last a long time.

Good training duck
August 24, 2021
I got this to train my GSP as a versatile dog. She retrieves toys but she was not sure about this trainer tool at first. After swinging it around to get her excited about it and playing around with it she is retrieving it properly.
The duck is a realistic size and shape, and is very durable. I can swing it as hard as I can throw and it just bounces off the ground and does not show more sign of wear than grass smudges.
Now she is has little interest in her old toys and just wants this one. I added the duck scent stick to spice it up too.

Bluebills in May
May 7, 2021
Sometimes I don't have time to thaw ducks out before an evening training session and I have to resort to Dokkens. I have quite the assortment but decided to purchase a Bluebill this time around. The bright colored bird, paired with a Power Throw is just what the Retiever ordered for that 300 yard mark against a dark background!

Dokken Deadfowl bluebill
April 30, 2021
The deadfowl trainer was up to par with the Dokken standard. Anyone who trains dogs knows that Tom Dokken knows his stuff, and the deadfowl trainer shows this. Very durable and a nice hard foam material. The bluebill is a mouthful for my Boykin to grab, and has helped eliminate some of the rolling she does with smaller bumpers. Has a good weight and is easily throwable. Highly recommend.

Great retriever training tool
March 18, 2021
I have a number of these Dokken Dead Fowl Trainers. I have used them in training my Boykin Spaniel in both land and water retrieving drills. The Black Duck Trainer in particular has taught him to distinguish a duck in choppy water as it is not as easy to pick out in the waves. So this challenge has made him a better retriever.
