Summary: No lab owner should be without it!
Review: My husband and I purchased this book 5 years ago when we bought our first Labrador pup. We were immediately taken by the methods used by Mr. Wolters - kindness and fun being of the utmost importance when training a retriever. Following the instructions to the letter, we had great success - first duck retrieved to hand at 12 weeks, no problems whatsoever with hardmouthing or breaking at the shot. What we now have is a bird hunting machine that sleeps on our bed; a dog that hunts quail and chukar as well as he does ducks and geese; a dog that responds equally well to voice, hand and whistle commands (all important in varying hunting conditions). While we never had any interest in hunt trials (we wanted a working dog and pet), we have received scores of complements over the years, with most people commenting that this is the best dog they've ever hunted over. We're hitting our prime in the 5th hunting season, and will use this book once again when we start a new pup this winter.Really - buy this book (Water Dog is also a good additon to your library). You will have a great blueprint for both a great hunter and a good friend!

Summary: !Great Book!
Review: This book has been like a Bible to me as I have been training my first hunting labrador! Mr. Wolters is a "no bull" kind of writer whose meathods have turned my now nearly two year old dog into a wonderful hunting companion and the envy of all our friends!

Summary: Game Dog gets it done
Review: Wolters is the master at making it happens. Not only will your puppy love and obey you for life but you and your dog will have fun doing it. The instructions are so clear and precise people don't believe it. Here's the scoop, the training method described by Wolhers works.
