Greetings,
Just a heads up there is a 4 DVD set available now for training pointing labs called Training The Pointing Retriever. There is five and a half hours of instruction in the DVD's and it covers everything from what to do from the time you pick up to taking them out on their first hunt. Also have several videos on you tube,freebies, that can be seen on our web site as well. Things like how to introduce pups to water, intro to retrieving birds, intro to upland birds, How to teach a dog the way they think and learn, how long a training session should last to name a few. The concepts presented can be applied to any breed of dog. Some of the clips are directly from the DVD's.
The free videos can be viewed on our website at http://www.poudrerivergundogs.com and You Tube under Pointing Lab Training. There is also information on our site about the DVD's.
Best of luck to all who are running tests and trials this season.
Gary
