Synopsis
Gundog Training Made Easy by Eric Begbie is a detailed set of step-by-step lessons based on his famous set of Gundog Training Broadsheets that have been used by many thousands of gundog and hunting enthusiasts in all five continents. This superbly written book provides a wonderfully explicit training course for training any gun dog or hunting dog. It is ideal for retrievers or for spaniels and is equally valuable for pet dogs. In addition to the structured training course, graduated according to the age and stage of the puppy, there is a section of Frequently Asked Questions and a wealth of other information. Importantly, this book uses only positive humane methods of dog training and totally avoids aversive techniques. A must for every dog owner.

Brilliant5
OK - I am biased. But if I was new to dog training, this is exactly the type of book I would value. No nonsense, No padding. Just good common sense and a lifetime of experience.

This book is only 64 pages and some of those are photos or padding. For £15 I would have expected far more. The majority of the content of this book you could get from the internet and indeed the author includes a section of FAQ's from a forum website (more padding). You cold read the whole book in 1 hour and I was left feeling that I had been ripped off.

This is a great little book that gives you a good understanding of the basics of gundog training. It is perfect for the beginner and the novice and anyone else who has an interest in learning the basics of gundog training. What makes this book even more marvellous are the methods - compared with electric shock collars and ear pulling Mr Begbie uses nothing more than a strong voice and holding the extra skin under the chin whilst using your strong voice.
This is a great comprehensive book that will give you the enthusiasm and understanding to start training
