Joe Irving's paperback edition of his greatly respected handbook on gundogs shows how to train a dog for any type of shooting, by following a series of basic lessons which form a special sequence or 'learning chain'. From buying a puppy to working it in the field, the author describes in detail how to adapt each stage of training to suit individual temperaments and all breeds of gundog - spaniel, Labrador, golden retriever, flat-coat, curly-coat, pointer, setter and even the cross-bred. REVIEWS: 'This has been the most worthwhile training book I have reviewed in quite some time.' Spaniel Journal 22 b/w photos
