Recommended Dog Training Books

[Dave Lakes]

Can anyone recommend a good dog training book that covers everything from basic training that you would do with a pet, right through to working (flushing and retrieving in this case)?

I’m now in the process of getting a second dog and while our current spaniel turned out brilliantly, it’s been 10 years since we’ve done this so could do with a bit of a reference manual to keep me right.

Thanks in advance.

Both Mrs Gunn and I have found Lez Graham’s books - The Pet Gundog, and The Pet Gundog Puppy - to be very good.

For something more deer dog oriented try Guy Wallace’s books.

Tracking Dogs for Finding Wounded Deer by John Jeaneny is very good
