Thanks everyone for all the information. I think I'll pick up "Sound Beginnings" and one or both of the training books with can be purchases at the
www.coonriverkennels.com website. I think they'll all be great resources for the beginner I'll be, I want to thank you all for the help. If you have any more resources or gear which you'd think would be helpful, please share. Thank you all very much.
