General Gundog Training

There are a number of books about the training of gundogs that apply to the subject in general, rather than any specific breed. These are a select few.

Gundogs, Their Learning Chain by Joe Irving

I am a fan of Joe Irving and have been since his writing helped me deal with a particularly headstrong springer spaniel back in the late eighties. I have chosen to include this book here because it represents a great way to train a dog whatever the animal's temperament or abilities.
