Written by a real countryman who has worked with dogs and studied their behavior and temperament since he was 7 years old, this guide first explores the basic and most important issue of choosing the right dog. This accomplished, there is then the question of management of the dog. Even dogs belonging to dog lovers are often overfed, prone to bad habits, and insufficiently exercised. Consequently, correct training is particularly important and each dog's unique temperament needs to be taken into account during the process. Then, once in the field, the working dog's life is examined in detail. There are dogs working on grouse moors, dogs flushing, and "walking up" pheasants, finding and retrieving game, following wounded game, etc. Other subjects covered include the physiology of the dog, encouraging the dog into water, the correct diet, and the identification of ailments and injuries. Here is the indispensable manual for every sportsman who works with dogs in the field.

This book is about gundogs, those ever-willing companions of both sportsmen and discerning dog owners. Gundogs is not a manual covering training, grooming, nutrition and dog care; it is very much a celebration of the gundog's contribution to the sporting and companion dog scene, an examination of their past, their performance and their prospects in an increasingly urban society. Painstakingly researched, it covers the well-known recognized breeds and the more obscure ones from overseas, some quite unknown to the British public.David Hancock's earlier books have been highly praised, as have his many articles in sporting magazine in the last thirty years. When reviewing one of his previous books, the revered writer on sporting dogs, the late Brian Plummer, described it as a 'masterpiece'. Reviewing his Sporting Terriers, Dogs in Canada magazine stated that it 'has the quality of a classic'. A reviewer of his last book, Sighthounds, stated that 'Hancock's work provokes thinking in the reader the way a good discussion stimulates and refreshes our minds.' A Canadian reviewer of another of his books gave the view that David Hancock is 'perhaps the most important living writer about dogs.' A comprehensive survey of the gundog's origins, its role and its future, Gundogs is essential reading for all those with an interest in these loyal dogs, especially gundog and country sport enthusiasts. Meticiously researched and packed with information it covers the well-known recognized breeds as well as more obscure ones. Superbly illustrated with 360 colour and black & white photographs. David Hancock has studied dogs for over half a century and is a past winner of the Dog Writers Association of America.

THE SCIENTIFIC EDUCATION OF DOGS FOR THE GUN. By "H.H." (H. Nevill Fitt.) This early gundog training book was first published in London 1890, and is now very rare in its first edition. READ COUNTRY BOOKS have now republished it using the original text. This is one of the earliest books devoting the majority of its contents to the training to the gun of Pointers and Setters. The author writes from his then thirty seven years of practical experience, beginning with his first successfully trained Pointer as a teenager. Some of his methods will prove controversial, but the overall advice given in this book has easily stood the test of time and will benefit all first time trainers or anyone wishing to improve on their present methods. 220 pages contain sixteen detailed chapters dealing with: - "The Rationalle." - Kennel Management. - Retrievers ( 4 chapters). - Wild Fowling. - Pointers and Setters (8 chapters). - Field Trials. - Spaniels. The eight chapters concentrating on the "breaking" or training of Pointers and Setters will prove of enormous interest to shooting men, field triallers, and falconers. The author's admiration for the reasoning power of the dog, which makes itself evident on every other page, will assuredly be shared by all who read this book. Many of the earliest sporting books, particularly those dating back to the 1800s, are now extremely scarce and very expensive. READ COUNTRY BOOKS are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
