My Dad has a fabulous 1yr old English Springer Spaniel that he is training for field trialling/shooting. She is his first working dog and he is having great fun doing her basic training. I'd love to get him a book on the subject for Christmas and would like some recommendations. I know there are thousands on the subject but would like one that is more experiences than a "how-to". Either that or a very good Game Cookbook as he is also a fab cook. She's a beautiful dog with fab breeding! I've told dad I want one of her pups as a 30th birthday present...so that gives me 5 years to get settled down and have the space to train a gundog for myself!! Until then any help with Christ,as presents for him greatfully received!
 
I could definitely recommend 'The complete Gundog' by John Humphreys. Well it is compiled by him as each chapter is written by a different person - all specialists in that particular area. It also includes several chapters by John Humphreys who has had many gundogs and they are about his experiences and about the gundogs he has owned.
It is about £12.99 - maybe cheaper on Amazon.
