Opis

This antique text contains a comprehensive treatise on the use of retrievers as gun dogs, including detailed information on their breeding, training, health, and history. A retriever is a variety of gun dog that is often employed by a hunter to retrieve game. Commonly gun-dogs are split into three major groups: retrievers, flushing spaniels, and pointing breeds. Bred primarily to retrieve birds or other game and return them to the hunter undamaged, retrievers make excellent gun dogs as well as loyal companions. This book is perfect for game enthusiasts with a particular interest in retrievers, and constitutes a wonderful addition to any collection of antique hunting literature. This text has been elected for modern republication due to its timeless educational value, and is proudly republished here with a new introduction to the subject.
