Also, get this. £3 off eBay. It's all you need to know, very simple reading.

What you trying to say????

What you trying to say????

I knew you would look to find something in my scribe that was not there... you lefty shepherd.

I found it simple and informative when it first came out. I've followed the same principles as Douglas with every dog I've trained, gundog or lurcher, not had a bad one yet.

you lefty shepherd.

Ah let's leave politics in the arsëhóle section mate.

Thanks I'll get a copy.

If I can add to this discussion. When I first began my lifestyle change in the late 1980s by venturing into the gun dog world help was scarce. I lucked onto an English book "Training The Retriever" by J.A. Kersley and his words were the foundation of my kennel. The knowledge shared is priceless. The training outlined is straight forward and easy to put into practice. His discussion on how scent works carried over to the world of deer stalking as if this was the core subject. I reckon I owe the man a drink.
