I love this Book!! A great compilation of so many retriever drills. Easy read and I love the diagrams. Makes understanding the drills easy and clear. This is a must have for your training library.

This book was recommended to me by my retriever club and is just what I was looking for. Contains lots of training drills with detailed explanations. Highly recommend !

I had a judge recommend this book of drills after chatting with him after an HRC test. It is gold. Great drills for all levels and ways to build on each skill. Helps to have a solid plan before your training sessions. This book is a must have.

This book give you lots of practical drills to advance your retreiver at home. Every drill has diagrams and is well detailed.

Gun Dog Supply was the only place I was able to find it in stock and available.

This was recommended to me by a friend. I'm new to field and I have enjoyed reading this very informative book. I would recommend it to anyone.

This has to be one of the most in depth, descriptive training manual on the market. The manual is full of drills and how-too’s. You will not be disappointed.

This is my retriever training Bible. Very detailed drills and how to run them.most of the drills have 3 levels of difficulty which allows you to tailor your training session to your pups level.

The drills in particular have been cited by many in the Toller community and beyond. We look forward to using these for our amazing bird dog :-)

very good book i didn't know you needed a second person to throw birds have not got poppers

This book has so many great drills. I love how it is laid out with a purpose of the drill, drawings, what to do if it's not working, etc. Every waterfowl handler should get this, especially dogs that do hunt tests!

I was looking for new things to teach my dog and this book had wonderful new things I could work on with him, we both are learning!

Very detailed instructions covering pretty much every aspect of training a hunting dog! Easy to follow with pictures, and diagrams in abundance.

Love this book! Has so much information and easy to use. I spiral bound mine to make it easier to fold open. This is my third book for this 3rd edition.

Very easy to follow along!! Some training books that I have purchased in the past have left me more confused than prior to buying the training books!! This particular book is perfect in regards to being informative, fun and easy to follow along. Regardless of how far along your dog is there is something for him/her in this book.

As a novice retriever trainer it give many good suggestions for drills.

Haven't read it all yet but looks good. Good pairing with her Master seminar that I attended this summer.

Great help in training a retriever. Lots of drills and info.

Good read!

A great source to set up training drills.

Great book for beginning and experienced dog handlers. The book is full of excellent advice and drills.

Well organized book with easily understood descriptions/diagrams of the drills.

Building a Retriever is an excellent source for expanding traning drills while providing a cLear explanation. I train weekly with several friends and their gun dogs of various breeds. All enthusiastic waterfowl hunters and several of us handle our dogs guiding hunts during the upland season. Thanks for an excellent training resource. Building a Retriever - Drills and More by Carol F. Cassity is a valuable source of information to us help train and continue to improve our gun dogs.

Great book.

Great book with lots of useful drills. Author explains some dog behavior in a different way. Interesting read.

There are a lot of great drills to keep your dog sharp, and also to keep dog training fresh.

I love how the drills are ranked beginning, moderate, and advanced. And also ranked by how many helpers you need to do the drill. I'm a rookie retriever trainer, many times working by myself; so I can focus on the drills that are for my level and I can do by myself. Also the explanations of the early drills are understandable.

Awesome book. Really like the exercises. Very informative!

Great drills including common problems and solutions. Easy to understand.

Very good book. I would highly recommend it.

I bought this book as a gift for my nephew. He specifically requested it for Christmas.

I love the drills. They are divided into beginner, intermediate, and advanced. The only thing I would change is I wish they were sequenced to #1, #2, etc. You can sort of figure that out, but you have to really dig all the way through the book.

Good, practical information. Drills for one or several people. Also has some useful insights on dog psychology, with a touch of humor thrown in.

Good explanation of drills that teach various concepts. Drills are fun!

Very happy with it. Have already used it to help teach myself and my dogs.

This book does an excellent job of helping trainer run the right drill the right way. Great book!

Great book full of effective drills! A wonderful book for people who train on their own or in small groups. Easy to read and follow.

This book came highly recommended from the breeder that we purchased our newest lab from. The drills are fun and easy to understand. Great for the trainer and the pup.

This book is excellent.

I've used this many times already, and had it less than a month.

Best book I have found for the training of a retriever to advanced skills. Well written and easy to understand.

This is a good book with lots of drills. If your dog is having problems they give you some potential solutions. Overall great book.

Working with a retriever and needed/wanted a guide for retrieving drills. Love this book. Drill directions are easy to follow and in a sensible order. The book has helped me a lot. Kind of my drill bible..Terri

Good book. "Dummied" down, so anyone could understand the drills of this book.

No matter how many years you have been training dogs, there is something in this book for you.

We have had this book for years - we use all of Carols' drills and find they improve our dogs' performances tremendously. We recommend it to all our clients. . Glenda & Julianne Mitchell - Kanati Kennels, Brownwood, TX
