Default RE: Training A dog

I really think this question is a matter of opinion, but I have pheasant and quailhunted in Indiana with many different dogs from Labs, German Shorthaired Pointers, Brittany Spaniel, English Pointer, and Wiemaraner. My favorite is German Shorthaird Pointer because they don't get tired easy and they are very well minded from the start. I trained my GSP as soon as I got her at 7 weeks old. She is a realy smart dog but it takes alot of time and patience with any dog.Brittany Spaniel is my next in line for the same reason but cleaning briars and burs out of their hair is no fun. Overal out of all the dogs I have hunted with I think that the dog is only as smart as the person training it.
