“Along with compulsion issues, we need to mention proper hold and delivery on command. If my pheasant is punctured, I want it to be from pellets, not teeth. That actually covers some ground in all of the first three categories.” – excerpt from SmartFetch

This ground breaking new book examines the history of force fetching dogs and its goals and purposes, while also laying a solid foundation for a fully trained hunting retriever. All obedience issues associated with force fetching are fully explained including “Hold” all the way through to Water Force. No book has ever been so complete in its discussion about, and instruction for, doing-it-yourself retriever training.

A Brief Biography of Author Evan Graham
Evan Graham is a retired professional dog trainer, and ex-paramedic. He now works as a Registered Nurse in a metropolitan hospital. He is married and has four children and nine grandchildren.

He is also a columnist for The Retriever Journal, and has trained and handled many dogs that earned positions on the National Derby List, including five in a single year; one of them being number three with seven wins. At least three of the dogs he trained as a professional became Field Champions. The driving force for his development of the Smartwork method was the belief that one can never know how good any dog is whose Basics were not thorough. As a portion of method refinement, he maintained a strong focus on efficient, effective Basics.
