A realistic Dog & Field Original Clone® Cock Pheasant dummy ball for pheasant-focused handlers, puppies and advanced dogs needing a small, visually distinctive target, designed to develop accurate marking, positive pick-up and purposeful hunting in cover.
Why We Recommend It
We recommend this model because it gives cock pheasant-focused handlers a reusable, consistent training aid with more visual relevance than a plain dummy. The Original Clone® print is distinctive, while the compact ball format adds genuine training variety.
Key Benefits

Creates a smaller target for more demanding marking and hunting exercises.
Useful for puppies building confidence as well as experienced dogs needing variety.
Easy to add to a training bag for short, purposeful sessions.
Bright enough to mark, compact enough to make the retrieve interesting—and no tail feathers to tickle one’s nose. — Bailey 🐾

Air dry naturally away from direct heat before returning it to the training bag.
Inspect the canvas, stitching and throwing cord before every session; replace the dummy if damage could make it unsafe.
Professional Insight
Quarry-specific dummies are most useful when they support a clear training objective. For the Cock Pheasant version, use the pattern and compact target size to develop accurate marking, positive pick-up and purposeful hunting in cover. Change only one variable at a time—distance, cover, memory or weight—so the dog understands the lesson and confidence remains high.
Training Academy Tip 💡
Use the Cock Pheasant pattern with purpose: start where the fall is easy to mark, then add cover or distance gradually. If accuracy drops, simplify the exercise immediately rather than repeating a confused retrieve.
ProTrain Principle
Train for the quarry, progress one variable at a time and finish with confidence.
Complete Your Setup
Build a progressive set around this Cock Pheasant dummy with a lighter puppy dummy, a standard canvas dummy, a whistle and lanyard, and a larger or heavier retrieve when the dog is ready. A dummy bag keeps the equipment dry, organised and unavailable for chewing between exercises.
Dog & Field Original Clone Cock Pheasant dummy ball with durable canvas construction and a realistic high-definition feather-pattern print. Designed for supervised gundog retrieve training, especially pheasant-focused handlers, puppies and advanced dogs needing a small, visually distinctive target. Supports accurate marking, positive pick-up and purposeful hunting in cover. Not a chew toy; air dry after use.
