The Original Clone Large Rabbit Dummy by Dog & Field is a 3-piece training dummy combining HD printed canvas, real wild rabbit fur, and counter-weighted construction to replicate the scent, feel, and weight distribution of a real shot rabbit. At 500g, it's the premium choice for experienced dogs ready for the real thing.
Why We Recommend It
The Large Clone is for dogs that have moved past basic fur introduction and are ready for the full simulation. The 500g weight, combined with the counter-weighted balance and real rabbit fur scent, creates a training experience that's as close to real game as you can get without being in the field. For handlers serious about field trial preparation or driven shoot work, this is the dummy to use.

Care Guide
- Shake out after use and allow to air dry naturally

Professional Insight
At 500g with counter-weighting, the Large Clone is the most demanding rabbit dummy on the market in terms of what it asks of the dog. That's exactly the point. Dogs that train regularly with this dummy arrive at the shooting field with the muscle memory, scent recognition, and carry technique already established. The transition to real game becomes almost seamless.
Training Academy Tip 💡
Use the Large Clone in combination with the Small to create a progressive training programme. Start younger dogs on the Small, then graduate to the Large as strength, confidence, and retrieve quality improve. The step-up in weight and realism is a natural progression that mirrors the real demands of the shooting field.
ProTrain Principle
Advanced training demands advanced tools. Once your dog has mastered the basics, the quality of your training equipment becomes a limiting factor. The Large Clone removes that limit — it's as close to real game as a dummy can get.

FAQs
What's the difference between the Small and Large?
The Small (approx. 250g) is designed for younger dogs and smaller breeds. The Large (500g) is for experienced dogs and larger breeds ready for advanced retrieve work. Both share the same HD canvas, real fur, and counter-weighted construction.
What does counter-weighted mean?
One section is slightly heavier, replicating the front-heavy weight distribution of a real shot rabbit. This trains dogs to handle real game correctly from the start.
Is this suitable for field trial preparation?
Yes — the combination of realistic weight, scent, and visual appearance makes this one of the best tools available for field trial preparation.
Does the fur hold scent?
Yes — the real wild rabbit fur naturally carries rabbit scent, which can be supplemented with training scent liquid for increased stimulus.
What's included?
The dummy comes complete with a long throw rope and ball toggle.
