Cloth. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. First Edition. "Louise Petrie-Hay charts the history and development in Britain of each of the gundog breeds from their early beginnings to the present day. She discusses the suitability of particular breeds for the types of shooting available and gives advice on selecting, breeding, rearing and general care. She goes on to cover training principles with specific points relating to the main breeds working today: retrievers, spaniels, pointers and pointer/retrievers. Finally she includes a chapter on rules, regulations, and judging. Throughout, Louise Petrie-Hay stresses the need for kindness to be allied to firmness. The time, she points out, when gundogs were 'broken' rather than trained is long gone and it is the harnessing of goodwill and co-operation which will result in a happy and successful dog." 88 black-and-white and full-color photographic illustrations with accompanying descriptive captions. 144 pages.
