Sporting Saint BG Rabbit by Ben Randall
Original Realistic Rabbit Dummy Developed for True Field Simulation
The Sporting Saint BG Rabbit by Ben Randall is the original rabbit-style training dummy of its kind, developed in partnership with Ben Randall of Beggarbush Gundogs and handcrafted in the UK. Designed, tested and refined in real field conditions, this lifelike retrieve dummy was created to replicate the balance, movement and handling dynamics of a rabbit more accurately than traditional canvas designs.
This is not a generic rabbit dummy. It is an original trainer-led design built to bridge the gap between standard training dummies and realistic game retrieves, helping dogs develop correct carry mechanics, balance and confidence in structured training programmes.
Why the BG Rabbit Design Matters
Standard canvas dummies cannot replicate the shape and balance of real game. The BG Rabbit was developed specifically to address this. Its realistic profile encourages dogs to grip centrally, allowing the limbs to hang naturally either side of the mouth, promoting balance in motion and cleaner delivery to hand.
The design also allows handlers to drag the dummy to create scent lines, introducing additional realism into marking and blind retrieve work. This makes it an effective tool for dogs preparing for shooting days, competitions or advanced field performance.
