If you are a true gun dog enthusiast, Gun Dog is the magazine for you. The writing is some of the best I have read anywhere (including the N.Y. Times Magazine and Vanity Fair) and is replete with such beautifully crisp description that you feel as if you are there with the hunter. There are many do-it-yourself articles on such things as building dog boxes, ramps, etc., as well as training advice, and excellent gun reviews. Each issue spotlights an interesting gun dog breed and gives hunters as well as dog enthusiasts the low-down on both positive and negative aspects of the breed. The photos are absolutely gorgeous and border on art. I am always looking forward to the delivery of the next issue, and have been very pleased with its low price in comparison with some other "copy-cat" magazine-attempts like "The Pointing Dog" which are replete with advertising, and not much else! If you want to learn about bird-hunting or bird-dogs or just would enjoy the vicarious experience of the hunt and the pleasure of a good hunting dog, then this is the magazine for you!

This is my favorite magazine. Lots of articles on training, different breeds, etc. Advertisements for useful tools that you just can't find anywhere else. I picked up my first magazine off the shelf, and immediately bought a subscription. My subscription started the issue after my breed was featured and customer service sent me a back issue, no problem. There is also a forum and a facebook page dedicated to this magazine that has extra information on it.

Gun Dog is a good, but not great, magazine. Customer support is very poor.
