Editorial Review:

Product Description:
As an amateur trainer, you have many advantages that a pro can envy. For example, the amateur can develop greater rapport with his or her dog. He has more time, so he does not need to use pressure techniques. He even has better access to the training grounds best suited to the initial stages of almost every phase of training. Spencer helps you make full use of them, and get top notch results with kinder, gentler training methods

Spencer guides you step-by-step through:

*Puppy Training *Basic Obedience *Single Marked Retrieves *Force-Breaking—why and how *Double Marked Retrieves *Basic Blind Retrieve Training *Advanced Marks and Blinds

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Golden Retriever Training for Hunting
Nice book. I chose the book because of the Amazon.com reviews. It appeared to be what my Grandson had requested and he seemed pleased to get it as a Christmas present. We will have to wait to see if the information in the book helped him with the training.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best Retriever Traning Book Ever Written
I found out about this book in 1991 shortly after I had gotten a Lab puppy that I wanted to train to be a working dog.

I had read all the popular books at the time, but none made it clear to me - what I needed to make clear to my dog !!

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Throw out all your other retriever training books!
This book is absolutely fantastic. After reading numerous other training books and still having difficulty with my young dog I stumbled onto this book by accident. Spencer covers every aspect of training the puppy right through to advanced blinds and marks. His style of writing is very clear and his use of anecdotes helps to illustrate the real life ramifications of various techniques. Until I read this book I had great difficulty training consistent blind retrieves. Spencer's explanation of the ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - From basic obedience to training for the hunt
James B. Spencer's Training Retrievers For Marshes And Meadows will hold a specific appeal for hunters who use retriever dogs in their work. Beginners are taught how to gain rapport and train dogs, from basic obedience to training for the hunt - and receive instructions particular not only to retrieving in general, but to the breed.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best I've read on training retrievers
Before, during and continuing with the training of my current yellow Lab, I have read quite a few books on the subject. I wish I would have had this one sooner! Easy to read and great instruction all in one book.
