dogdoc Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Re: dog trainers?? soonerman---you need to pick up the Smartwork series of books. Right now all you need is the SmartFetch and Smartwork Vol 1. You can get both books for about 60 bucks. These 2 books will walk you thru basic obedience, force fetch, collar conditioning, and retrieving drills. If you follow these 2 books you will have a good hunting dog. Let me know if you can't find them and I'll set you up with a supplier of the books. good luck todd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
