It is not too late to train a puppy at 1 year of age. In fact you have knocked out some of the yard training so to speak with the obedience. the only catch is that the puppy has to have the right genetics and breeding to be a hunting dog......does it come from hunting parents?......if it is from a hunting line then you can buy one of a number of books on how to train the pup. I personally think for guys training their own dogs that anything about Delmar Smith's techniques are pretty hard to beat. If the pup is not from hunting lines and shows no natural pointing instinct (flies, butterflies, squirrels etc.) then you may have a rough go at it. Always remember that they are born hunting dogs........we just mold them........Good luck to you and happy hunting.
