Dummy

Fenriz Duck Dummy with fur 250 g.

Fenriz Duck Dummy with fur - If you want a retrieve dummy that feels more realistic for your dog, but is still light, practical, and durable, then the Fenriz by Procyon Duck Dummy with fur 250 g is an excellent match. It's a classic training dummy built for repetitions, and it's especially ideal for those who train retrieving, hunting, or simply want to give their dog meaningful activation that actually makes a difference.

The "duck"-inspired shape combined with sewn-on imitation fur makes it extra interesting for the dog. It triggers natural instincts without the need for real fur. And yes—it also floats, so you can take your training to the water.

Why a "duck dummy" adds extra value

Many dogs pick up retrieving faster and better when the dummy resembles something "real." It's not about making it fancy—it's about motivation and correct grip.

The duck shape + fur part can help with:

• more natural interest in picking up
• better carrying and fewer "chewing habits"
• more realistic transition to hunting-related training

At the same time, it is light enough to build the technique correctly, especially if you are training a young dog or a smaller breed.

Floats in water with plastic granules

The dummy is filled with plastic granules, allowing it to float. This makes it ideal for:

• water retrieving in a lake or river
• confidence training around water
• varied activation when you want to challenge the dog's focus

It is also a safer solution because you won't lose the dummy in reeds or currents if the dog is new to water work.

Cord for long throws and better control

The dummy has a cord, making it easier to throw long distances. This provides:

• more variation in distances
• better training flow, especially when alone
• less strain on your arm/shoulder

The cord is a simple detail, but in practice, it makes your training more effective.

Heavy-duty canvas for long durability

Canvas is the old, proven classic in dummy training—because it lasts. Fenriz by Procyon has chosen a heavy-duty canvas that can withstand:

• rain, moisture, and mud
• many repetitions
• dog teeth and pulling

If you want to think sustainably in your dog training, this is one of the most practical ways: buy equipment that lasts longer so you don't have to replace it all the time.

Weight 250 g: who is it suitable for?

250 g is a super useful size, especially for:

Perfect for:

• smaller dog breeds
• puppies and young dogs in development
• technique training (grip, delivery, calmness)
• dogs that need many repetitions without overload

If you have a large, strong hunting dog and want to train more "heavy" and realistically, you can later supplement with a 500g version. But as a base, 250g is truly a strong place to start.

Training tips that work

1) Start close
Short throw, quick success, calm retrieve.

2) Reward the retrieve
This is where you build a stable retrieving dog—not in how far you can throw.

3) Change environment
The garden, the field, the forest, and the waterside. Variety creates a confident dog.

4) Dry the dummy after water training
Air drying = longer lifespan.

Fenriz Dummy - Orange for retrieving and hunting training

Fenriz Dummy - Orange - If you are looking for a dog dummy that simply does the job, then the Fenriz by Procyon Dummy in orange is a strong choice. The dummy is designed for retrieving training, and it is also ideal for those who train for hunting or work with more targeted retriever training. Classic setup, solid quality, and a color that is easy to spot in the terrain. Period.

This dummy is designed for repetitions. Many repetitions. It is sewn from heavy canvas, has a rope for longer throws, and is filled with plastic granules so it can float. This means you can use it both on land and in water, without having to baby it.

Why it makes sense in training

Floats in water
The plastic granule filling allows the dummy to float. This is quite essential if you are training water retrieving or want to build confidence in the dog around water work.

Cord for longer throws
The cord makes it easier to achieve longer throws. This creates more realistic retrieving situations, and you can vary the difficulty without changing your entire training plan.

Heavy canvas, built to last
Canvas is a traditional favorite in dummy training because it holds up to teeth, pulling, and moisture better than many "cheap" fabrics. This one is made to be used, not just to sit nicely in a basket.

Produced in Europe
If you care about animal welfare and more responsible choices, then European production is a plus. Shorter transport, better control, and often a higher standard.

Which weight should you choose, 250 g or 500 g

This is where many go wrong. So here it is, straight out of the bag:

250 g
Good for puppies, young dogs, smaller breeds, and for fine technical training. Also great if you train many repetitions and want to spare the dog's neck and shoulders.

500 g
Better for medium to large dogs, and for those who want to train a more realistic grip, carry, and calm delivery. The extra weight can provide a more stable retrieve, especially in wind and tall grass.

My take: If in doubt, and the dog is adult and robust, then 500 g is typically the most versatile. If you are building a foundation and want to keep it light and easy, then start with 250 g.

How to use the dummy smarter, not harder

To get the most out of dummy training, it's not about throwing far every time. It's about structure:

1) Start with short, easy successes
Short distance, clear reward, calm delivery. This is how you build a dog that loves the task and understands it.

2) Train delivery as a habit
Reward calmness at your side. Not a fight for the dummy. That's old-school retriever logic, and it still works.

3) Change environment
Grass, forest floor, sand, shallow water. Variation makes the dog flexible and future-proofs your training.

4) Keep it safe
Dummy training is active training. Always use the dummy under supervision, and stop if the dog starts tearing it apart.

Durability and maintenance

Canvas is robust, but all equipment lasts longer with simple habits:

• Rinse the dummy after use in saltwater or mud
• Let it air dry, not on a direct radiator
• Store in a dry and cool place
• Check seams and cord regularly, especially if you throw hard and often

Who is it suitable for

This Fenriz dummy is a match for:

• Retriever training and retrieving at all levels
• Hunting training, where you want something that can withstand terrain
• Water retrieving, because it floats
• Dog owners who want equipment that lasts and makes sense in the long run

Fenriz Aktiv Bungee with Sheepskin – handmade in Poland 🇵🇱🐑

Fenriz Aktiv Bungee with Sheepskin - Here you get a piece of classic reward toy, made as it has always been done when quality had to last: strong nylon strap + real sheepskin + bungee elastic. And because the entire Fenriz Aktiv collection is handmade in Poland, each bungee is a bit unique – no two are exactly alike. This is not a defect. This is premium.

The bungee is designed for training, reward, and play, where you want high motivation without destroying your own or the dog's body. The strong elastic absorbs the shocks when the skin is pulled – so neck (dog) and shoulder (handler) are spared. Period.

Why fur makes a difference in training

• Natural scent of sheep = higher motivation and more "drive"
• Awakens and channels hunting instinct in controlled settings
• Fur training can help the dog get used to contact with animals (relevant for hunting/tracking/working breeds)

The skin comes from mouflon sheep in Poland, is brushed to become soft and luxurious – and the few products with which the skin has been treated are approved for children. There are no dangerous toxins or harmful preparations in the production.

Advantages

• ✅ Handmade reward toy – unique natural product
• ✅ Durable nylon strap of solid quality
• ✅ Bungee/elastic – less strain when pulling and tugging
• ✅ Real sheepskin – maximum motivation, especially for training

FAQ

Is the sheepskin treated with anything?

Because tugging games can otherwise cause harsh shocks. The elastic reduces strain on the dog's neck and your shoulder/arm.

Which size should I choose?

• S: small/smaller medium-sized
• M: medium-sized
• L: medium/large
  If your dog pulls heavily and has high intensity → it's better to go up a size.

No – it is sent in assorted colors (typically red/blue nylon).

NOTE

Fenriz Aktiv is handmade from natural materials, so there may be small deviations in size and color. This is precisely why it feels like genuine craftsmanship.

If you wish, I can also write a short category SEO text for "Fenriz Aktiv reward toys" + an internal link structure (e.g., from bungee → chaser → sheepskin → training treats), so Google really has something to work with. 🚀

Fenriz by Procyon Dummy with fur – 500g

Fenriz by Procyon Dummy with fur 500 gr. - If you want to train retrieving and hunting in a way that more closely resembles "the real world", then the Fenriz by Procyon Dummy with fur 500g is exactly the type of equipment you should reach for. It is made for serious training, but without being cumbersome: it floats, it can be thrown far, and it has an imitation fur part that makes the experience more realistic for the dog.

This is the classic approach to retrieve training: keep it simple, keep it consistent, use equipment that can take a beating. Then slowly build up the difficulty, as has always been done with skilled retrieve dogs. At the same time, this dummy is designed with a more forward-thinking twist: imitation fur instead of real hide, so you get instinct-stimulation without compromising animal welfare.

Why a dummy with fur makes a difference

A regular canvas dummy is great for basic skills, but when you want to get closer to hunting situations, the "fur feel" can be what makes the dog take on the task more naturally.

The imitation fur:

• stimulates the dog's grip and interest
• provides a more natural retrieve feel
• can be an advantage for dogs that otherwise lose focus quickly

And no, it's not real. It's imitation fur, so you avoid animal hides and get a more responsible solution.

Buoyancy: ideal for water retrieving

The dummy is filled with plastic granules, which makes it float. This is a must if you are training by a lake, river, or coastal areas, or just want to do water work for mental and physical activation.

Practical bonus: When the dummy floats, it also becomes easier for the dog to locate and pick up, especially in reeds and small waves.

Throwing line: longer throws, better variation

The throwing line is attached and designed to give you extra length and control. You can:

• throw longer without using unnecessarily much force
• do more varied exercises (distance, directions, distractions)
• keep training effective, even when you train alone

It's old school functionality, and it still works.

Robust canvas: built for use, not decoration

The canvas part is made for outdoor training in all that we Danes realistically train in: moisture, rain, mud and uneven terrain. This is not a "pretty dummy". This is a dummy that is meant to last.

Weight 500g: who is it suitable for

500g is a sweet spot for many dogs, but let's be honest:

Perfect for:

• medium and large dogs
• retrievers and hunting dogs
• dogs that train regularly and can carry weight steadily

Less ideal for:

• small breeds
• puppies or young dogs in development
• dogs with neck/back challenges

If you have a small dog, choose a lighter dummy instead, so you don't end up with poor technique or overload.

How to get the most out of it in training

If you want output, stick to a training structure that has always worked:

1) Start simple
Short throws, calm retrieve, reward "hold" and "give" correctly.

2) Build in distractions
Change surface, wind direction, distance, and partially hide the dummy.

3) Use water as a difficulty level
Start in shallow water close to the edge, and gradually go deeper and further out.

4) Stop while the dog is at its peak
Rather 6 good repetitions than 20 mediocre ones. Your dog learns faster, and you get a happier training partner.

Maintenance: how to make it last longer

• rinse after use in mud/saltwater
• let it air dry (not on direct heat)
• store dry and cool
• regularly check the fur part and seams

These are small habits that mean you don't have to buy new all the time. And it's better for both the budget and sustainability.

FAQ – Frequently asked questions

Can it be used in water?
Yes. The plastic granule filling makes the dummy float, so it is ideal for water retrieving.

Is the fur part real?
No. It is imitation fur, which provides a realistic feel without the use of animal hides.

Is it too heavy for small dogs?
Yes, for many small dogs, 500g will be too much. They typically benefit more from a lighter dummy.

Can the string be removed?
No. The throwing line is fixed and is part of the design for longer throws.

Can it withstand rain and mud?
Yes. It is made for outdoor training, but let it dry after use to maintain durability.

Brief summary of advantages

• 500g: strong all-round size for many hunting and retrieve dogs
• Floats: perfect for water work
• Imitation fur: more realistic training feel
• Throwing line: extra range and better control
• Canvas: robust and made for hard use

If you want a dummy that feels more "real" to the dog, and that can handle both land and water, then the Fenriz by Procyon Dummy with fur 500g is a very solid choice for hunting training and retrieve exercises.
