I started this book not know the slightest thing about bird dogs. George does a phenomenal job breaking everything down and having the reader truly understand each step and encouraging the reader there is no right or wrong way there are just ways that work better for some than others. I highly recommend this for any bird dog owners and any dog owners in general to strengthen your relationship with your fur friend.

I have read a number of hunting dog training books and this is excellent. The last chapter on old dogs made me cry.
