I'm just set in my ways and won't use food when training bird dogs, I do use it(clicker) for Obedience on house dogs and such. not downing you or nothing just how i do and and I've had a good bit of success doing it. My only problem with people using treats is that most don't know how to phase it ou...

The dog is young yet and ready to replace treats with praise/and birds, I agree with chuckar the Clicker training in the very beginning is a good way to get them started and I agree with 4dabirds that a dog is and always will be a self pleaser but we have many different ways to shape that into to wo...

I've only been in a few times, but haven't seen much in the way of sporting dog gear. I joked once about hunting dogs and was given the cold shoulder by a couple different employees. So, the question is: do they support/tolerate/condone hunting? What is their corporate policy? Do they support PETA,...
