    I have the UK version of it (Clicker Gundog) - these books are described on the Karen Pryor site as being complementary, with Positive Gundog being aimed at the US market, and Clicker Gundog the UK market. (http://www.clickertraining.com/node/981).

    It's a great book. It's not a beginner's book though, and it is quite "serious" in that it assumes you have access to live game and shotguns. But maybe that's just me in that I can't see me keeping quail in Wimbledon! ;D

    I have the American version. It is definitely not for someone just starting with Gundog training. Pippa's The Right Start would be much better suited. :)

    I second "the Right Start" it's excellent. Clicker Gundog is very good too but not a starting point to my mind.
