DOG BREAKING - A PRACTICAL TREATISE ON THE TRAINING AND MANAGEMENT OF
SHOOTING DOGS. By Wildfowler. (Lewis Clements) A VINTAGE DOG BOOKS
CLASSIC REPRINT Originally published in London 1915, this scarce early
work on Gundog Breaking (Training) is both expensive and hard to find in
its first edition. VINTAGE DOG BOOKS have republished it, using the
original text and illustrations, as part of their CLASSIC BREED BOOKS
series. The author was a well known sportsman and writer who was
commissioned to write a series of articles on gundog training for the
Shooting Times and British Sportsman. These were so well received, that
by popular demand he condensed these into Dog Breaking. which was then
published with the addition of numerous photographs and illustrations of
various Gundog breeds and their work. Ninety pages contain detailed
chapters on: : Puppyhood Education. Pointer and Setter Field Breaking.
Field and Covert Spaniel Breaking. Water Spaniel Breaking. Retriever
Breaking. Training a Keepers Night Dog. Points of Sporting Dogs. This is
a fascinating read for any Gundog enthusiast or shooting man and
contains much information which is still useful and practical today.
Many of the earliest dog books, particularly those dating back to the
1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive.
VINTAGE DOG BOOKS are republishing these classic works in affordable,
high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
