Sligthly off topic, but as most of the people who post here are into the great outdoors, look out for Derry's articles on gundogs and falconry in field sports magazines. It's amazing who you get to talk to on this list! Try typing in the name on the web, you'll be amazed how many hits you'll come up with.
I gave up trying to teach dogs to shoot years ago, but I've just come back from fly fishing and found the easiest way to catch flies is to spray yourself with insect repellent. Land rovers and field sports have a long association, let's keep it that way. Cheers, John
