Gun-Dog Training Spaniels and Retrievers by Kenneth C. Roebuck

"Those who hunt without a dog just don't know what they're missing," writes Kenneth Roebuck-a lifelong gun-dog expert and professional trainer. "To be the owner of an upland hunter, especially one you have trained yourself, which is steady to flush and shot, or a retriever which sits unleashed and perfectly steady by your side while duck flighting, is to have a dog with that little bit extra, that final polish, which having been achieved makes any dog that much more of a pleasure to hunt with."

In GUN-DOG TRAINING SPANIELS AND RETRIEVERS, the first book ever to devote itself exclusively to the flushing breeds as well as the first book to cover training retrievers for upland game work, Kenneth Roebuck is careful to point out not only what the handler should do, but also what mistakes should be avoided.
