"Nigel Mann has started training gundogs because he wanted a well-behaved shooting companion. He is an amateur who has been successful competing against professionals for a number of years and is a keen field trialler. [Generally] owners want a well-behaved dog to retrieve the game they shoot without constant direction once their dog is in the area of the fall. ...One of the underlying reasons for this book is that he believes his methods differ in a number of aspects to those already expressed in other books and, in particular, that a puppy's education should begin at only eight weeks old. His new ideas should assist anyone anxious to train their gundog to a degree when it becomes a competent and reliable retriever."
