Absolutely Positively Gundog Training
Author: Robert Milner
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781514221839
Category : Hunting dogs
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"Traditional gundog training is based on compulsion and rooted in a picture of the dogy's nature as similar to a wolf with much emphasis on dominance and sub ordinance. Milner turns that theory upside down citing research which finds that wolf packs operate in cooperative family groups with minimal factors of dominance. Dogs, Milner believes, learn much faster with a cooperative training model. Milner has chucked compulsion and embraced reward as the primary training tool. He gives the reader a simple, reasonable easy-to-perform training model. His extensive practical experience leads him to condense gundog training down to a few critical behaviors. Milner gives the reader clear concise instructions producing those behaviors to develop an excellent gundog who excels also as a family dog. This is a book on how to manage the strong instincts of retrievers and influence them to work for you and with you to produce a valuable companion that enhances your outdoors experience, be it hunting ducks, or fishing for trout, or hiking in the back country."--Page [4] cover.

An outback story of kelpies, red dirt and the future of a family farm. Now streaming on ABC iView and Netflix. Life on the land is often boom or bust, forever at the mercy of Mother Nature. Aticia 'Teesh' Grey took on the manager's role on her family's West Pilbara cattle station a few years after picking up her first team of kelpies. Almost immediately she was faced with a severe and devastating drought that forced her to question everything she thought she knew about the fragile country of her home. Through the heartbreaking rollercoaster journey that followed, Teesh's loyal canine companions proved invaluable as she and her family worked towards securing the property's future. The versatility of these amazing dogs took the station in directions no one anticipated. In 2020, Teesh got the chance to showcase the potential of working dogs more widely. Joining the ABC TV series Muster Dogs, Teesh and four other farming families took on the challenge of training new kelpie pups and testing their worth on the properties they run. Through this experience they showed the bonds that are formed between human and dog and vividly demonstrated a positive environmental future for farming in rural Australia. This is a story of love, laughter, loss and hope, as Teesh finds her feet in an ever-changing world with the help of the dogs who have stood by her side through it all.

Learn to communicate with your dog—using their language “Good reading for dog lovers and an immensely useful manual for dog owners.”—The Washington Post An Applied Animal Behaviorist and dog trainer with more than twenty years’ experience, Dr. Patricia McConnell reveals a revolutionary new perspective on our relationship with dogs—sharing insights on how “man’s best friend” might interpret our behavior, as well as essential advice on how to interact with our four-legged friends in ways that bring out the best in them. After all, humans and dogs are two entirely different species, each shaped by its individual evolutionary heritage. Quite simply, humans are primates and dogs are canids (as are wolves, coyotes, and foxes). Since we each speak a different native tongue, a lot gets lost in the translation. This marvelous guide demonstrates how even the slightest changes in our voices and in the ways we stand can help dogs understand what we want. Inside you will discover: • How you can get your dog to come when called by acting less like a primate and more like a dog • Why the advice to “get dominance” over your dog can cause problems • Why “rough and tumble primate play” can lead to trouble—and how to play with your dog in ways that are fun and keep him out of mischief • How dogs and humans share personality types—and why most dogs want to live with benevolent leaders rather than “alpha wanna-bes!” Fascinating, insightful, and compelling, The Other End of the Leash is a book that strives to help you connect with your dog in a completely new way—so as to enrich that most rewarding of relationships.
