Customer Reviews

Best dog training I've seen hands down.
This book was easy to read and follow, making it the perfect book to start with. I recently got my first serious hunting dog and knew NOTHING about the process of training. I was seriously thinking of professional training her but no more. The book showed my what to do, when to it, how much to do, and that the person doing should be me. Though there is a lot of information in the book, it is presented in a concise and interesting manner. If you are a dog person, you will have a hard time putting the book done once you have started.

Everything you need to have a great retrieving labrador.
This book gives you lesson by lesson the course for training your dog. It helps you understand the psychology of training a dog. It is great for the first time trainer and veteran alike. I now have a high powered fully hand signal trained labrador that is a blast to hunt with and is fully obedient at all times.

A great book for anyone obedience training any pup.

the most effective, easy to understand training guide
I used this book 8 years ago to train Jessie, my Chocolate Lab. She was killed in an accident on Nov. 15, 1998 and she was the best hunting companion a duck hunter could ever expect to have. Her training was done by this book as it is written. Every day for 10 straight months we worked on at least one lesson from the book. I checked the book out from my local library and renewed it each month for 11 months. I am purchasing this book for my puppy I expect to acquire in March, 1999. Todd Hatch
