#37 | Field Care and Conditioning for Sporting Dogs with Dr. Kristina Mott – Project Upland Podcast

On this episode of the Project Upland Podcast, I am joined by Dr. Kristina Mott — veterinarian, upland hunter and breeder and trainer of German Shorthaired Pointers and Duck Tolling Retrievers. Kristina joins the podcast to talk about her love of caring for, breeding and training bird dogs as well as her passion for upland bird hunting.

During our conversation we talk about how Kristina got started in upland bird hunting as well as her early inspirations for becoming a veterinarian. She currently owns and operates Town and Country Veterinary Clinic in central Wisconsin. We also discuss the dogs that Kristina breeds and trains, including duck tolling retrievers and German shorthaired pointers. Of course we talk about caring for our sporting dogs, including tips on conditioning and training our dogs as well as preventative maintenance and what to carry in your first aid kit.
