Editorial Reviews
Review
Training the Working Retriever (Quiller, 2009), is much the best recent work on training these dogs to the gun. –The Field
This new book stands out among the many available titles on retriever training: it is written with infinite attention and a great love for dogs as our fellow companions in the long process of training. –Retriever Magazine
Of all the [training] methods I’ve come across, none has impressed me more than those practised by Anthea Lawrence. When I heard that Quiller Press was looking for someone to write a book on retriever training to join its impressive library of gundog titles, I put Anthea forward as the ideal person for the job… there will always be a place for a book like this. –Shooting Times
