The main objective of this intriguing handbook is to ensure that all members of the family, including children, can enjoy their dogs in both the home and the outdoors. Topics include principles of how a dog learns, how its behavior can be modified through positive and kind methods, the instructor-pupil relationship, and the teaching process. The study also outlines the gundog process: selecting the appropriate dog, formal training for the hunting environment, establishing steadiness, retrieving and delivery, directional work, scent lines, negotiating obstacles, assessing progress, health and welfare, and much more.
