Training With Mo
a book by Martha Greenlee about bird dog training with Maurice Lindley

Training With Mo This book focuses on how to best train pointing dogs and how to do it with compassion. This book captures the West Method of training as applied and refined by Maurice. Those of you who know Maurice are his friend - no exceptions. His calm and quiet training style has helped to create many field champions and hunting companions. To watch him train is to watch a master of his craft.

Read more about Maurice on his web site at:

You can order the book from Glade Run Press at:
http://www.gladerunpress.com/shop.html

Glade Run Press is David Webb's child - established in 2003 for the purpose of publishing fine books on the subjects of gun dogs, hunting and guns.. David Webb has bred, trained, field-trialed, shown, and hunted Brittanys for thirty-five years. A longtime target shooter, David has written numerous articles for hunting and shooting magazines and is a close friend.

Vic Williams (Your GBC Webmaster) is the photographer for the book!
