Training Bird Dogs Book

A few years ago we sat down with our friends, Reid Bryant and Brian Grossenbacher, with the goal of creating a book to give bird dog owners additional insight into the minds of the dogs they live with. It was our intention to share our experiences training dogs over the years and to provide people with detailed information about the training system that our family has devised after decades of training animals. Contained in our book is insight into dog behavior and a comprehensive step-by-step guide to how to train your dog using the Smith Method of Training. The book walks the reader through each step in a successful bird dog's life; from puppyhood to formal training to hunting. Our proven training method is broken down into a step-by-step recipe that you can use to train your bird dog. Training concepts are illustrated with the well-known photography of Brian Grossenbacher. Whether you are looking for a guidebook to train your own dog or have a dog that has been trained using our methods and want to be a better dog handler, we think you will find a lot of useful information in this 256 page book!
