The main thing i can tell you is stay consistent and pick a program and stick with it. Not everyone is looking for a FT champion, some people are looking for a gundog that can live in the house and ride in the cab of the truck. Dogs are just like everything else in life, everyone has an opinion on what you are getting and 99% of them do not know what you are actually looking for.

With all this being said, I purchased a British Lab and thought long and hard about the program I was on. With a small amount of coaching from my life coach(that sounds so Gay), I changed my program from a no collar somewhat pudding sandwich to Mike Lardy's program. My dog has flourished under this program with the tutelage of what I consider qualified trainer(That's supposed to be a secret).

Good luck with your purchase and train SMART.

Carry on folks

Here's ole Ace doing some jam up dog training, I am not sure what he is trying to accomplish. With 9 males and 15 females it also looks like he is more into running a Puppy Mill than Training Kennel.
