Many hunters consider their retrievers to be "polished" if the dog sits, stays, retrieves marked singles and won't run off. However, retrievers of every breed have so much more potential. This book condenses Tom's 40-plus years of dog training into a concise, easy-to-follow guide that helps you unlock the magic within your retriever. Working at your own pace, and with vivid visual instructions, you'll learn how to teach your dog honoring, multiple marked retrieves, blind retrieves over land and water, and much more.
Table of contents:
Equipment for the Serious Trainer
Advanced Obedience and Force Fetch
Lining Drills and Advanced Back Command
First Blind Retrieve
Advanced Marked Retrieves, Honoring and Other Waterfowl Skills
Multiple Retrieves

Retriever Safety Tips
About the Author:
Tom Dokken has more than 40 years of experience turning retrievers into successful field trial competitors, hunt test participants, waterfowling companions, and upland bird finders. Tom is the creator of the popular Dokken Deadfowl Trainer, and Dokken's Oak Ridge Kennels in Northfield, MN, is one of the largest all-breed hunting dog training facilities in the United States.
Tom Dokken has many talents, the greatest of which is his ability to take your happy, untrained dog and, weeks later, return to you a trained companion that's still happy.

Anyone who has attended one of Tom's seminars knows he is a hands-on trainer, beginning with handling your puppy on the very first day. This book provides a well-illustrated, step-by-step program to develop your pup into a willing and happy retriever.
Unbelievable book. Can't say enough good things. Highly recommend!

This is the first book I have read by Tom Dokken. While the material is solid & helpful, the book is mostly photographic. Quite frankly, I think it is too heavy on photographs & not heavy enough on actual teaching/content.
