Books and DVD
Getting my second pup soon and trained my first lab using the Richard Wolters Game Dog method and it worked well.
I am looking for a more structured plan this time as Game Dog isn't as structured as I wanted. What do you suggest? I will not be training with a collar.

Re: Books and DVD
It's a lab.
Look into Evan Graham's SmartWork system. It's nothing if not structured.

Just curious by what you meant by "It's a lab." I chuckled when I read it.Greg Jennings wrote:It's a lab.

Re: Books and DVD
LOL It is because I had made a reply suggesting a book that dealt with training pointing dogs. Obviously I had read the post too quickly. The "It's a lab" was Greg pointing out my mistake.LokiandGunnar wrote:Just curious by what you meant by "It's a lab." I chuckled when I read it.Greg Jennings wrote:It's a lab.

Re: Books and DVD
Okay, thanks. SmartWork looks involved but good. I just might go to one of his seminars in the spring.Ditch__Parrot wrote:LOL It is because I had made a reply suggesting a book that dealt with training pointing dogs.

Re: Books and DVD
I have the SmartFetch DVD. I thought it was very well done.
Eons ago, when I had a lab, I used "Training Retrievers To Handle" by DL and Anne Walters. I thought a lot of it at the time, but can't remember more than that.

Re: Books and DVD
If I was only going to hunt and not do tests, etc., would I need the Transitions DVD's or is up to the Smart Fetch all I really need?Greg Jennings wrote:I have the SmartFetch DVD. I thought it was very well done.
