RETRIEVER GUN DOGS

Another Countryman Press book, illustrated with fine photographs. A thorough coverage of the breeds of retrievers, standards, history, and background; of their training, selection and care; and of some of the outstanding retrievers in dog history. The chapters on training -- step by step, puppy training, yard training, obedience lessons, and the actual training for the hunting field are exceedingly valuable, and presented in terms that even the amateur who wants to have a well bred dog in the field will find of practical value. Good section on field trials.
