Description
The Dogtra Manual Quail Launcher 2 (QL2) is made for quail and barn pigeon-sized training birds. When you’re teaching a dog to point or flush, good bird exposure early on makes a big difference, and the QL2 helps with that. Add Dogtra’s RR Deluxe electronics and you decide exactly when the bird takes off, so an eager puppy is less likely to catch one on the ground.
Dogtra Manual Quail Launcher: why the QL2
The vented basket lets air through to spread scent, so your dog can wind the bird easily. Dogtra’s patented adjustable spring tension sets the throwing height and gives a very quiet launch, which matters when you’re starting a shy or young dog. It’s simple, tough and an affordable way to add real bird work to your training.
Manual or remote
Use it as a manual launcher, or add Dogtra electronics to release birds remotely. Choose the Dogtra RR Deluxe for long-range control, or buy the ready-to-go Quail Launcher 2 with Receiver. Need a bigger basket? See the Dogtra Manual Pheasant Launcher. Manuals are on the official Dogtra website.
Using it in training
Load a bird, set the tension low and put the launcher in light cover. Bring your dog in on a check cord, into the wind, so it finds the scent. When it points or stops, release the bird and gently hold your dog steady as it flies. Keep sessions short and upbeat. As your dog matures, raise the tension, hide launchers in heavier cover and add a remote release. It suits pointing dog owners steadying young dogs, flushing dog trainers, and anyone who wants a cheap, reliable launcher for regular bird work.
