Awesome book. I'm using it to fine tune my adult lab but the book takes you from puppy to adulthood and everywhere in between. I'm gonna have so much fun training my boy before next season with this book. Very easy to understand and follow the lessons.
This is an absolutely amazing book. It is easy to read and well laid out. Tom Dokken has a great method for training retrievers from pup to adult. I met with a professional hunting competition dog trainer and thanks to this book, I already had a great start and was already doing most of the things he recommended. That's when I realized I had made a really great buy.
