Gee whiz,

Lovely interest in Jack Gwaltney's book. Take it from me, he will be absolutely thrilled.

By the telephone orders and the orders so far on this forum I will definitely need more books.

I have no idea of the costs, as I only ordered them yesterday. Plus I have asked Jack to send them via US post, on the quickest service available.

I also want to take this opportunity to state that this particular book speaks more on theory than "how to train". That being said it is one of my absolute favourites.

It's the very fact that this book is more theoretical than practical for a change that is of particular interest to me Julie.:lol:

I am interested in the theory aspect as well, and judging from the material you have shared to date, I think it will be valuable.

For those asking about the cost, the book was selling from http://www.gundogsupply.com for $19.95US.

Cheers, Jason.

Julie

I sat behind the pegs and taped Geoff Cole running Ruff and Touch for the last time at the NSW championships last year. I suspect much of it will look a bit like the Blair Witch project (particularly Jack Lynch's multiple relocation run), but some of it may be useful for Bill. I will give Geoff a call and see if I can get a copy.

Cheers, Jason.

Thanks Jason and Teresa.

I feel guilty now, by my bribe (threat).

I am no angel, just trying to help.

I wish I knew back when I was training Cracker, what I THINK I know now. It is just, such, a very exciting time for me with all this new knowledge in training.

I have taken my video camera to the trials in Victoria with me, but with running multiple dogs have had no chance to tape anything. I may try and give someone else my video at the next trial.

Hi Julie,

Yes please, book for me!

Also, I am happy to video for you at the Lab Club trial on the 27th if you need someone. I'm only running one maniac dog so should have enough time :D

Hi all;

If anyone has a spare video of one of your trials, I would love to have a copy. One run would be good, but several would be better. You can email me or pm me and we can work out the details. Maybe we can work out a trade; one of my videos for one of yours.

Thanks,
Brian
