How to Help Gun Dogs Train Themselves : Taking Advantage of Early Conditioned Learning
author: Joan Bailey
Amazon Review: 
"Chapters 5 and 6 should be required reading for everyprospective puppy buyer." (Bill McClure of American Hunter.)"...One
of the finest books on gun-dog training to cross my desk in a long time...The book is based on the premise that much of a dog's
behavior is established during the first 16 weeks of life...The information she provides can prevent a whole host of headaches
later in the dog's development...Bailey's book has been acclaimed by most of the dog training gurus in North America, including
Field & Stream's Bill Tarrant and Outdoor Life's Larry Mueller." (George Gruenefeld, writing for The Montreal Gazette.) "Joan Bailey's
credentials as an author on this topic are first-rate. She's familiar with the classic works in the field, has a wealth of experience as
editor of The Gun Dog Supreme...and has been a field trial judge of versatile hunting dogs for almost two decades...
HOW TO HELP GUN DOGS TRAIN THEMSELVES offers an organized and readable approach to training."
Review:
A great read for ANY dog owner!, March 20, 2007
Joan's book certainly helped me when I became the new owner of a hunting dog eight years ago. The book focuses on the time period before
the arrival of the puppy, through the first critical year of a dog's life. The information in this book would be useful for any new dog owner,
whether the dog is a hunting breed or not. I would say this is a MUST read for anyone who plans on hunting over their dog. I know that when it
is time for the next puppy in a year or two, I will be reading this book again! Highly recommended!

The Best Trained Gun Dog...The best book yet, October 5, 2008
How to Have The Best Trained Gun Dog, Taking Advantage of Proven, Unique Training Methods, All Natural - No Expensive Electronics Needed (Paperback)
It is the end of first day of the 2008 hunting season here in Maine. I have a full game bag, a tired Wirehaired Pointing Griffon asleep at my
feet, and a copy of Joan Bailey's latest book, "How to Have the Best Trained Gun Dog" in hand. I would not have any of the above had I not read
and followed to the letter the wisdom contained Joan's first book, "How to Help Gun Dogs Train Themselves". This new companion volume picks up
right where the first book left off and like the first volume, is a simple, to the point guide to dog training. Both are a must for any
serious hunter or for anyone who wants a well behaved dog in the field and around the house. Joan has dedicated a lifetime to judging, training
and breeding fine versatile hunting dogs and her insight into canine behavior is remarkable. I recommend this new book with the same
enthusiasm that I have recommended her previous work. Buy it. Buy them both. Your dog will thank you in many ways.
Review:
Great training resource!, December 25, 2008
Simplify your life--this is the only book you need to train your bird dog. I have collected a variety of "how to" training books during 40
years of owning and training pointing breeds--Brittany, Drahthaar, and many Griffons. Something was lacking in each book causing me to pull a
chapter here and there to reach my goal of a finished hunter. The problem was that each author had a slightly different philosophy about what
worked for them and my piecemeal approach lacked the continuity dogs (and trainers) need. The steps in Joan's book flow seamlessly together and
are based on what works with dogs and are not are just a collection of someone's personal training regime. This is the only book I will pull
off the shelf for my next pup or to hone the skills of my current canine companion.
