OverviewThe countryside is a place of beauty for all to see, and people from all walks of life now come to and enjoy the fulfillment of game shooting, and the satisfaction of seeing their gun dogs working. Gun Dogs and the Countryside will provide the gun dog owner with a great deal of knowledge about the behaviour of their dogs, and will enable owners and those who work with gun dogs to get the best out of them. This book would also make a lovely read for those that simply enjoy being in and walking in the countryside, and many species of wildlife are mentioned, such as the Black Grouse and the Woodcock.
