|A must for puppy training.,
The first half of the book is everything from choosing a puppy to house training your puppy. The second half is the beginning training of retrieving. A must especially for first time retriever puppy owners. Everyone of my puppies goes to their new home with a copy.

|A training manual for you and your retriever!,
This book covers all the steps in teaching a puppy the basics of retriever training. There are no stories or tall tales to fill in the gaps like in the Water Dog book. This is all straight forward retriever training. I recommend this book to everyone I meet that is wanting to learn how to train a dog to retrieve. The authors have added drills to work on after teaching certain stages and I feel these are very helpful. Also, there are check list after some steps and chapters that let me know if my dog and I are doing that particular step correctly. I’ve never read another book on retriever training that has as much information in it as this one.
