Nothing beats a hearty chat with Jason Firmin, the main man at Eizweck Dogquip, and his son Ryan, especially after their whirlwind European tour. Now, this wasn’t your typical sightseeing trip. Nope, the Firmins had a mission – to immerse Ryan into the exciting world of dog sports decoy.
Europe’s got some seriously talented decoys, and it was in this lively backdrop that Ryan received his crash course. Jason couldn’t stop beaming as he spoke of his son’s meteoric rise in the decoy scene.
Ryan was all grins, too, as he regaled us with tales of training alongside Europe’s decoy cream of the crop. His eyes sparkled as he recounted his ‘unparalleled’ experience, a real game-changer for his decoy journey.
Now, we’re a cheeky lot, so the chat wasn’t all shop talk. We found time for a bit of a laugh, ribbing each other and adding a dash of fun to our dog sports discourse. Let’s just say, we know how to balance the serious with the downright silly!
Their European sojourn has undoubtedly injected a fresh dose of enthusiasm for dog sports and decoy in particular. The Firmins’ story is a delightful reminder of how a spirited approach to learning (and a pinch of mischief) can create unforgettable experiences. Here’s to more decoy escapades with Ryan on the frontline!
