What I know for sure is if you have tunnel vision when it comes to dog training only the dog looses in the end, they are all individuals and their training must be approached as such...............sorry if I'm "stroking" you lol

    We agree, have mostly the same thoughts about training as I have read in your posts. Stroking, it isn't, agreeing, it is. Keep up the great informative dog posts, many novice and experienced leave here with another way to get the job done.................................

    Re: Gun Dog Training

    this goes to foxton,s character and his dogs.jim is not hard on his dogs and uses an e collar as his last resort ,mostly he just plain out smarts then. I have had the pleasure of hunting over his dogs and am ordering a pup from his next litter I was so impressed..i will not speak to the training debate all I can say is the man has a great respect for his dogs and treats them like family...dale.

    I whole heartedly agree with you sir. I however can comment to his ability as a trainer as he did some work on my spaniel pup when I was laid up with hip surgery. He is an old school trainer who produces results in a calm quiet manor. I would cretainly recomend him to anyone with confidence.

    what would the price and course content be? There's so much to learn, but I'm definitely interested. I'm assuming people would have to have some foundation? Unless you'd be doing a true blue beginner course.
