I do have the book Gun Dog. I have been told it is a very good book for training pups. I don't know the father of my pup, but i do know the mother is papered, and so will my puppy. I'm assuming she comes from a good line of dogs, but I'm not for sure. Either way, I am getting a free papered English Setter. I'll keep ya posted when I get her and how the training is going... thanks for everything
