181. The Ancient Story Behind Your Gundog’s Instincts - Severn Lenses Series

Ever wonder why your gundog sometimes seems caught between wild instincts and home comforts? It’s not just you — this tug of war goes back thousands of years. In this episode of Found It, Fetched It, we dive deep into the incredible journey from wolves to the dogs we know and love today. Understanding this evolution helps us be more patient, compassionate, and realistic about what our dogs can and can’t do. So, let’s explore how thousands of years of domestication shaped their brains, behaviours, and bonds with us.

Thanks for joining us for this episode of Found It, Fetched It. Whether you’re just starting out or you’ve got muddy boots and a seasoned dog by your side, we’re here to walk the journey with you. We’re all about real talk, practical tips, and celebrating every little win—because in this world, progress isn’t always perfect, but it’s always worth it.
