Hours and hours of laborious, tedious work go into this type of training, but the results are most gratifying. _ To see your ‘ dog streak out across the field and retrieve a thrown bird back into your hand can give you a real sense of accomplishment. Don‘t be led astrayâ€"there is a lot more work involved to get your dog to retrieve on a consistent basis than a novice would expect.

As in all types of dog trainâ€" ing, each lesson must be taken step by step and not advanced until your dog has the previous one down pat. Consistency and repetition are the only ways your dog can be taught to be a willing worker. I take my hat off to all field trial enthusiasts and especially those who have finished their dog to his field â€" trial championship. Compared to showing or obedience work there is no doubt in my mind that field work is the ultimate plateau that can be reached with your canine pal. Throughâ€" out all this type of training the thing to remember is that you are training your dog to do what it was originâ€" ally bred for and therefore your dog should be happy to respond to your commands and to please you. You are invited to send questions about your dog‘s problems to my attention in care of this newspaper. chener. Regional transit study committee: W.L.
