    • Best dog training book.

      I have used the book Water dog to train 4 labs. It is unbelievable how easy it is using this book. It really brings out their intelligence and their need to please. The book even has humor. I have also trained rottweilers and German shepherds using the methods in this book.

    • The Bible of Duck Hunting Dog Training

      My dog is 5 months old now and already a great duck hunter. I read 3 other recently written books and none touch this one. It is the bible of dog training- every duck hunter I know that has trained their own dog has read this and used its methods.
