Copyright 2005, softcover, 98 pages, b/w photos "What does Paul Long say about it?" is the question often asked by most serious trainers. This book highlights the guidance of this master dog trainer. In simple question-and-answer format, Long answers the questions most asked. Should I try to train my dog myself? Do I need to use a whistle? How do I deal with a dog who sulks after correction? When should I breed my male dog? How do I stop my dog from barking at night without cause? What should I do if my dog will point a dead bird but not pick up and retrieve it? Paul Long's answers to these question are practical and filled with the good sense and subtle, wry humor of a wily veteran.
