DRAHTHAAR PUPPY MANUAL - Fourth Edition. A complete guide to surviving your first Deutsch-Drahthaar puppy experience and the German breeding and testing systems, by Altmoor owners Roger Smith and Nancy Bohs. After years of urging by other German registry breeders, we've finally made our puppy manual available to the general public. This 120+ page manual is designed to get the new owner of a German-registered Drahthaar up to speed as quickly as possible with regard to the complex German breeding and testing systems, and provide a step-by-step detailed guide to raising and training the pup from 8 weeks through 2 years. Training and preparation for the spring Puppy Test (VJP) and Fall Breed Test (HZP) is covered in great detail. Tips on advanced work such as steadiness, e-collars, and blood track training are also included. While biased toward the Deutsch-Drahthaar, owners of any of the German-registered versatiles should find this manual to be an extremely useful guide, and owners of any versatile breed, regardless of registry, should find it very helpful in preparing their pup for its ultimate role as the complete gun dog. Be sure to purchase the most current test rules from your breed club.
