Alright, this should bring in tons of different viewpoints so…here it goes, I have purchased a Labrador puppy (Daisy) which is now twelve weeks old and has received minimal training (sit, come, stay). I have limited dog training experience that dates back thirteen years ago when I purchased a Weimaraner and trained her per Richard Wolters book; which, seemed to work well for me as I shot plenty of birds over the dog throughout the years that I owned her. Despite the success with Wolter’s book, I feel that there are probably many other resources at my disposal for training Daisy. Which raise my question; whch system would be best suited for training Daisy to be a great pheasant hunter? I have reasonable expectations and do not intend to take her to field trials rather just have successful hunts with her and my son. Look forward to hearing/seeing the results of this post!
Thank you to all who submit on this.
