Congratulations on the new dog. I was in your predicament in September of this last year. I hadn't done much training with a pointing dog. I started looking for books on amazon and found a couple that seemed really good. The first is Training Pointing Dogs by Paul Long. This book goes over basics from choosing a pup to a finished dog. Parts of it are FAQ's that he answers. This book uses very humane and cooperative basics for you and your dog. I really liked this book. The other book is Training Pointing Dogs the Delmar Smith Method, some of this book I didn't agree with. There is some good information in it, but this book is for someone that wants to train a field trial dog. Good luck with your new hunting partner.

Good Luck and Happy Hunting
