Nick Ridley and Fran Ardley have nearly five decades of combined experience and knowledge of training and working their gundogs in the field, whether it’s picking up, beating, or enjoying the thrill of shooting over their dogs there are very few situations that they haven't encountered. 'Practical Gundog Training' takes a different approach to many previous publications and instead of focusing solely on one breed, it concentrates on exercises that owners of all gundog breeds can follow. These training exercises and methods are based on the owners' practical experiences of working their gundogs in the field. Although aimed at the gundog owner who plans to work their dog in the shooting field, ‘Practical Gundog Training’ will also be useful to those trainers who own pet gundog breeds. The book features specific training scenarios, including place board training, whistle work and working with more than one dog. Each subject covers various exercise options and not only the initial training, but also ways to introduce some refresher training, which is especially important at the end of a busy working season.
‘Practical Gundog Training’ is a simple, straightforward and easy-to-follow guide. Containing expert practical advice it will help both the novice and the more experienced trainer to get the most out their gundog.
