George Bird Evans "Troubles With Bird Dogs" is a great training program
Or do a search on Delmar Smith

I believe I used Delmar Smith's book while training my first setter, Sport around 50 years ago. It was a small paper back book.

The NAVHDA Green Book is small, light, soft cover, and will tell you everything you need to know. If you ever get involved with NAVHDA people, you will know what they are doing.

Get involved with a club which focuses on your breed/type of dog. I learned an awful lot by listening and watching men who were much more knowledgeable than I
