    Great read

    February 3, 2021

    I have both game dog and gun dog books and they are really the best books you could own if you are serious about training a bird dog. I had minimal experience training a dog but these books are straightforward and easy to understand. He explains every aspect. At first read, you may think "well I already knew that was how you do it", but he explains it very well and it's basically repetition, and starting your dog as soon as you bring them home. I started my pup (gsp) at 8 weeks using this book and she just turned 6 months and I just went through a mock hunt and she was steady and retrieved perfectly to hand. No forcing, just repetition and making retrieving into a game.

    Used his books for all my hunting dogs, pointers and labs. I recommend them for anyone who has the desire to train their own dogs. If you have a little time everyday and common sense, you can train them following these methods. Pro trainers may come up with all kinds of reasons why you need them, but you don't if you follow Wolters books.

    Easy reading, nice step by step lessons and time frames.
