Smartwork Volume II: Secrets of the Pros covers late transition through advanced, helping you transform your "basically-trained dog" into a "fully-trained dog." It also includes tips on maintaining your dog's performance over his lifetime; field applications to help your dog relate his training to real-life hunting situations, hunt tests, and field trial preparation; and troubleshooting the fully-trained retriever. Everything you always wanted to know about dog training but were afraid to ask! Both written and illustrated by Evan Graham, Smartworks Vol. II is designed to be easy to use: It is spiral-bound so you can lay it open flat to the page or diagram you are working on without breaking the binding, and the laminated covers help protect it from the elements. Reviewed and Endorsed by The Retriever Journal:
... an informative book with a nifty design ... Smartwork is filled with the kind of information you'd expect from a retired professional dog trainer ... laying down a good philosophy that usually gets glossed over in some books, but something that Evan puts first and foremost in his. Jake Smith
