Let me correct my statement... It is the worst advice I've ever heard for introducing a dog to gunfire . With something as serious as that, you might want to include a few of the important first steps. "Shoot the gun to make sure not gun shy" is pretty vague. You are quick to point out that I said "shoot the gun", you failed to mention that I listed some steps on how to "slowly introduce the gun". Also I mention more than once that the best way to go if he decides to train his own dog, is to follow a pro dog trainers program. Online advice is cheap, mine included I'm not going to touch the water birth comment, that just made me laugh.

So I call BS on balloons but used his gun method before and he starts with a 22 which is cool.
I love that Maggie associates "sit" with "stay"
I apologize if this a little off topic, but I had to put down my 15 year old black lab last winter and I am finally feeling ready to get another pup, so my question to you guy's is do you have any particular breeders you would or would not recommend?
