Look elsewhere for information on Gun Dog Training,
By Anthonybon@aol.com (Hampden, Massachusetts) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gun Dog Training (Hardcover)
This book is fine if you want to learn about today's top breeders (albeit a little un-interesting). However, if you are interested in actually training your gun-dog, go with something like "The Delmar-Smith method"

Essays concerning contemporary bird dog trainers.,
This review is from: Gun Dog Training (Hardcover)
This book lacks editing and the title is a bit misleading. This is a series of philosophical critiques concerning a number of contemporary dog trainers. The book does not deal in depth with these trainers methods. Rooting out advice for your dog is rather difficult.
