Included are topics such as six tests for selecting a puppy, basic obedience work for any age dog, e-collar training, refined aspects or retrieval including difficult multipel-blind retrieves, advanced drills for a more advanced hunting retriever, and more. Written by Joseph Middleton. Hardbound. 179 pages. Illustrated with numerous diagrams and pictures illustrating these proven retriever training techniques.
