About this title

Synopsis

Competing with your gundog is great fun, but many owners are unaware of the many year-round training and competitive opportunities in which they can be involved. Many also think that the skills required are above them, and that such events are available only to the very experienced amateur or the gundog professional. This is very far from the truth. The Competitive Gundog is aimed at the beginner and the less experienced handler and provides detailed descriptions of all aspects of trials and tests.
