By: Daniel Berry from ILlabrador. Pet. Hunting dog. As a first time retriever owner trying to train a hunting dog...this book was priceless.
I'm a father of two and coach several sports throughout the year making the most of the small amount of time I have with my dog is crucial. This book was great for helping me with things to focus on during short periods of time and helped understand how to progress in a way that benefits my dog. 5 2717 10 minute retriever Reviewed: September 8, 2011

By: Bonnie McMurtry from TXWire haired pointing Griffon. Pet. Hunting dog. Great book! We really have enjoyed it and used it. Our six month old puppy is doing fabulous and he is ready to move on to the more structured training. I would definitely recommend the book.5 2712 The 10 Minute Retriever - How To Make An Obedient And Enthusiastic Gun Dog In 10 Minutes A Day Book- Reviewed: September 10, 2011
By: Jeremy DeMont from NYBlack Lab. Pet. Hunting dog. I bought this book and several others with it since I was training my first hunting dog. I would highly recommend this book along with several other books and DVDs. The one thing I did learn is that there is no right or sure-fire way to train your dog; sometimes certain types of training works better with one dog than others and having several ideas and different ways to train your dog(s).5 2773 The 10 Minute Retriever Reviewed: September 16, 2011

By: Pat Goff from TX3 dogs: Lab. Pet. Hunting dog. The instructions were clear and easy to follow. A little weak on some specific issues with one particular dog, being a little timid. Still a very good instruction book and would recommend it highly.4 2719 The 10 Minute Retriever - How To Make An Obedient And Enthusiastic Gun Dog In 10 Minutes A Day Book- Reviewed: September 9, 2011

By: Bill Everly11 dogs: Labrador Retriever. Pet. Hunting dog. Competition dog. Overly simplistic for a dog/trainer looking to run High level Hunt tests or field trials, but a good introductory book.

By: James Cochran from COLabrador. Pet. Hunting dog. As most of these books seems to be, pretty much worthless. The author rehashes dogs that he's had from long ago and uses techniques from the 50's and 60's (in my opinion). They worked then, kind of, but we've come a long way in dog training. I was expecting (hoping, actually) for a step by step process to achieve the goal stated in the title. Save your money and buy the Tritronics retriever training book. It is the only one I've found that has step-by-step instructions,and they work.2 2762 |

The 10 Minute Retriever Book by John and Amy DahlHow to Make an Obedient and Enthusiastic Gun Dog in 10 Minutes a Day
Copyright 2001, 256 pages, soft cover, black and white photos and illustrations
The 10 Minute Retriever reflects the authors' belief that daily ten-minute training sessions best suit a retriever's attention span and lead to rapid learning. This book is easy to use for the absolute beginner and yet deeply informative for the serious student of retriever training. The text has the information aspiring retriever trainers need: how to force fetch, how to set up tests in the field, and how to use an electronic collar humanely and effectively. The emphasis of this training method is on obtaining necessary control and good manners while maximizing the dog's enthusiasm by establishing training situations where the dog desires to cooperate. Primary importance is placed on developing and enhancing the desire to retrieve, from early puppyhood onward. The method presented provides a solid foundation to the dog and owner continuing to advanced retriever training (blind retrieves and competition).
John and Amy Dahl have over 40 years of retriever training experience between them. They have won numerous field-trials, five State Gun Dog Championships, handled six dogs to Field Championships, and trained owner-handled dogs to their titles, including two Chesapeakes and two Dual Champions. They are regular and popular contributors to The Retriever Journal magazine.
