with Ron Boehme
Hunting Dogs, Stories from the Field, and Lessons That Stick
Join Pat Burns for a conversation with Ron Boehme, host of The Hunting Dog Podcast, for an evening centered around the experience of hunting with dogs.
If you’ve spent any time listening to Ron, you know his perspective goes beyond training. His podcast has become a gathering place for dog people....sharing stories, lessons, and conversations from the field that stay with you long after the hunt is over.
In this Masterclass, we’ll explore:
-
What decades of hunting with dogs has taught Ron
-
The role of the dogs and the hunter in the bigger picture
-
How different terrain, places, and people shape the experience
-
The lessons that carry forward, from one dog, one hunt, to the next
This will be less about mechanics and more about perspective.
If you enjoy the conversations that happen before, during, and after a hunt… this one will feel familiar.
Because at the end of the day, it’s not just about the hunt—it’s about the dogs, the stories, and the people we share them with.

Ron Boehme
Hunting Dog Expert
Podcast Host
Ron Boehme has had a passion for bird hunting since 1973, when he bought his first license to chase pheasants in his home state of Illinois. Since that time, he has hunted in 22 states and 3 provinces, mostly with a bird dog by his side. A move to Michigan allowed him to build his kennel, Dancing Duke Kennels, and begin a lifetime membership with the North American Versatile Hunting Dog Association where he is currently a Senior Judge. Ron is currently ranked 39th among the top 10 wingshooters in the country.
I am all about the hunting dog because dog people are my people. I love the conversations before, during, and especially after a hunt. Learning about new places, terrain, or local hunting styles has meant as much to me as the hunt itself. The Hunting Dog Podcast is an ever-growing diary of my life experiences with dogs and friends, some which are old, some which have passed on, and those that I have yet to meet.
