Well I bought a feww this weekend and they don't have good time lines. Like what to start training first IE the dogs name, or what general commands to teach first.

I picked up these two books off hand.

Training Your Labrador Retriever by September B. Morn copyright 1999
Your Lab's Life by Virginia Parker Guidry copyright 2000
That's precisely why I suggested the "Smartworks" books.

Maybe try to find a local retriever club.

Doc has been pumping Evan's book so I decided to purchase it. I have read them all well most of them....and I have to agree Smartworks puts the whole game into perspective! Definately 5 stars! A must in every dog persons library!

drakedawgs where did you get the book from? What website? I found two websites that sell it, one that did not have any information that could be traced to a company (seemed like a fraud) and two looked ok but was to me skeptical.

Please if anyone know of a legit website for the smartworks book please post it.

Sorry I'm hard headed and takes a few positive reinforcements to trust someone. I'm not talking about the people on this website but when I spend my money on something that only comes from one website is hard for me to trust.

SmartWorks is the best money I have spent for my dog.

Well I picked up my lab yesterday. He's about 8 weeks I have to check the folder again. He's really energetic maybe a little to much. Anyhow he started wanting to bite my hands to play right away, about fifteen times of telling him "no bite" he got the idea. Now he just nudges my hand instead. I'm pround of hime so far at this point.

Can anyone recommend a insurance company?
