Story
George Bird Evans is a man to whom upland shooting has been a way of life for 50 years, and his book is both a creed for shooters and a fascinating sharing of the experiences of a true specialist. It is not a book for meat hunters (although possession of the game means as much to the author as to the next man), rather it is a book, half "how-to," half anecdotal and philosophical, that reveals in rich and intimate detail the unity that makes upland shooting that triad of bird-dog-gun in which no part is complete without the others.

Story
For a traveling bird hunter, October is heaven on Earth. It's Randy's favorite month. He is a storyteller, dog trainer, wingshooter, and wandering bird dog man. Every fall, he turns his truck north and west to match wits with grouse, pheasant, quail, and Chukar. He takes us through the years and the dogs. He tells the stories of coveys flushing, roosters cackling, quail running, shotguns, family, and even one unlucky yard chicken. He will take you west to Montana and Arizona, north to Michigan and Wisconsin, and south to Georgia.

She realized that the socialization and parenting techniques they used to raise their cubs were rooted in bonding, communication, and play: not in aggression, dominance, or punishment. If people used these techniques when training their dogs, she realized, there would be no need for prong collars, choke chains, or any kind of physical or verbal aggression.

I have read a lot of books about training dogs, but the specificity of this one is what makes it so great. I don't think there is a better top-to-bottom guide for training a bird dog. It's well-laid out and comprehensive. Great narration as well.

Invaluable resource!
The audible it exactly what I was looking for but now I am getting the book to have the information on hand with tons of highlighting. I plan to get several of gist other books now because the training really does work. My kids listen to a chapter each night so that they can follow through with techniques and we can all be on the same page as a family. Positive reinforcement training is the way to go, and I'll never train any other way.

I learned a lot
A whole load of valuable information I would have never been able to think of. Clever ideas about using things like bird scents and principles for training your dog using rewards on your terms. Even picking the right dog from the start is covered well.
Great book!

Pro-level secrets!
I feel my dog’s instincts will be at an all time peak after implementing the obedience drills outlined here. No need for a progressional trainer, it can all be done with the secrets inside! 5/5
