I bought the Perfect Start Perfect finish DVD. An awesome DVD but pricy. You will be able to train your dog using it. I trained 5 Brits before I bought the DVD but it sure helped on my curent dog.
Brits are real smart and unless you get a stuborn one they're easy to train. Where did you get you French Brit from?
Good luck on training your dog.

Thanks for the tip

I’m picking him up from a new breeder in  Mt Vernon.This actually is only her second litterI seen her add on gun dogs website and called and talked to her for about a half hr seemed very nice. The grandma is from France and the grandpa is from Spain from what she was saying and the pedigree chart from the AKC shows.

We followed standing stones YouTube series. The clicker works awesome and take all emotion out of the equation. It is simple to transition out of the clicker as well.

Another vote for SS if doing self training.  I also like Jeff Kings youtube series for something a little different.  In the same boat as you training my first pointer (Griffon), had only done labs in the past so good luck!

No personal experience with RJ, but my buddy had a his lab trained up by him ~2 years ago and has been very happy. 

PM sent about the MV breader info.
