Placeboard

Placeboard – Gundog Steadiness & Position Training Board for Fieldwork and Obedience

The Sporting Saint Placeboard is a structured training platform designed to support steadiness, positional control and disciplined placework during gundog training and obedience sessions. By giving your dog a clear, physical target to sit or stand on, the placeboard helps remove ambiguity and builds consistent responses to handler cues.

Manufactured for practical outdoor use, the board provides a stable, flat surface that sits securely on grass and training fields. The raised profile helps dogs clearly understand when they are on or off the board, reinforcing steadiness and positional awareness during structured drills.

Dimensions

• Approximate size: 60cm x 40cm
• Height: approx. 9cm

This size provides enough space for working breeds to sit or stand comfortably while remaining compact enough to transport easily in vehicles or training kit.

Benefits

Using a placeboard accelerates understanding of positional commands by giving dogs a consistent visual and physical reference. It supports steadiness to whistle, remote sits, recall control and structured retrieve preparation. The raised surface improves clarity during training, helping dogs distinguish between being correctly placed and breaking position.

Placeboards also allow handlers to structure sessions more effectively, building reliable routines that translate directly into field scenarios.
