1. Before being accepted to training of a dog in hunting, it is necessary to know, what breed of dog and for what hunting best of all is suitable. For example, Labradors retrievers or springer spaniels best of all are suitable for hunting for waterfowl, and for hunting for a large animal (for example, a bear) likes are irreplaceable. Select breed of dog depending on a type of hunting in which you most often are engaged. Besides, it is necessary to remember that different breeds of dog demand different approach in personal care. Some need a lot of place, they are very active, others, on the contrary, are inactive and unpretentious.

Your dog has to be prepared for a situation, not be afraid and execute all commands quickly and accurately. In the first days as the purpose it is possible to use dummies of birds, keeping at the same time reality of the events, for example shots.
