Chuck,

A friend of mine is one of the best english springer spaniel trainers and handlers in the country. After 25+ years of training he in convinced that there is no dog problem he can't fix if you can afford the cost. He also says that the owners need as much or more training than the dogs. And that part he was serious about. I have learned so much from him. I am on my 3rd springer and I have been very lucky to have had the training for me as well as the dog. Learn all you can yourself it saves a lot of money in the end. But go at this like everything else we can expect a detailed report with pictures of the whole process. I'll be looking forward to it. Good luck and have fun with the new pup.
