If I remember right, he wasn't even a trainer. I think he was just a writer who trained as a hobby. Could be mistaken though.

I am very proud of my hunting dog. He is not a field trial or did I want him to be. He will make 300 yrd blind retrieve's in the marsh.

I have a crisp $100 bill for anyone who thinks his water dog can play with anything trained with today's methods. This is my last post on his thread, keep believing what you want to believe.
