I just got a new pup 2 days ago. Came from an iffy home so im working on cleaning her up. Flea baths...collars.... anyway. They didnt have much to say about her. But what i do know is that she is a German Short Haired Pointer and Lab mix. Couldnt get an age out of them but i liked her so i took her.

Anyway....This will be my first time training a dog for anything including hunting. So can you give me some advice. I heard good things about a book called "Game Dog 2" by Richard Wolters so i ordered it. Should be here anyday. Im not sure really where to start, but i've started at least trying to teach her SIT.

As for hunting i really wanted a beagle as i mainly small game hunt..squirrel and rabbit. However i've got permission to hunt some nice fields as well as over water for waterfoul so im going to start hunting upland game.

Im sure i missed some information that would help readers give better advice...feel free to ask and as i said this is my first time so go easy on me
