  • Great for any kind of dog training

    I recommend this book for any kind of dog training. I used this book 14 years ago to train my first Search and Rescue dog. Hunting is hunting no matter what you are hunting, we teach them what! The book also helps with different areas like obedience also. I would recommend it to anyone with a dog. I loaned my first book and they didn't give it back and I can't remember who. I like this book so much I got it again.

  • Gives week by week expectations for a pup to make him the best hunting dog!

    I bought this product to provide insight on how to raise the best hunting dog. The book gives week by week expectations for you to have with your pup and items to work on. I would highly recommend it for good tips and suggestions.

  • Game dog.

    Excellent book, Richard Wolters is an excellent writer. As the title states this is a no frills and concise book on training hunting retrievers. This book helped put my son and I on the right path with out Labrador Retriever.

  • Great book and a great value.

    Great book on how to train a dog. It is a step by step that can help anyone who gets a new dog. Can't wiat to try on my new dog.
