Yellow Lab
« on: October 02, 2008, 03:43:38 PM »
Recently got a lab and woundered what is best to teach them. Retrieval is in his blood already and is not affected by gun noise. This is the most loyal dog i have had......only 7months old. :)

Just start with the basic obedience.  Here, stay, sit, heel.......

Got any pics......I love seeing lab pictures. :)
May I always be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.

You can get the retriever training by tri tronics, great book. It walks you step by step. Gun dog is a good book as well, you just can't pay attention to the "time lines" because, every dog is different. It also helps to join the retriever clubs in your area or a training group. Lots of people out there with dog advice :-)
