The Trouble with Gundogs takes a new look at the causes and cures for the many faults that can crop up in the process of training a Gundog. Dogs and humans have lived, worked and played together for thousands of years and strong bonds have formed between them. With luck and care, the training, management and handling of a Gundog will progress without a hitch. The luck begins with natural talent on both sides and the care ensures that correct choices are made and good sense prevails. However, things can still go wrong. This book offers solutions to the problems that may occur along the way. There are hundreds of different types of dog and each one has its own character. Because of this, one size does not fit all when tackling a problem, and different approaches are offered. Observation, determination and perseverance will usually be rewarded.

AUTHOR: Margaret Allen has had extensive experience of training, trialling, breeding and showing Labradors. Margaret's dogs have won many field trial and test awards, both at Novice and Open level. Margaret also does Gundog training demonstrations for country fairs and regularly gives lectures on dog training and canine psychology. Margaret and her dogs have been featured in the Shooting Times, Shooting Gazette and The Field. In 2011, she judged the Working Gundog Class at Crufts.
