Hunting dog training (ePub)

Already centuries ago the hunters of that time found out that a hunt together with a hunting helper is much easier than if only humans participate in this hunt. They found out that especially dogs show a sense of detection indispensable on the hunt, which a human alone could never imitate or copy in such a way. Especially for this purpose, dog breeds have been bred over the years to make a hunter's life easier. So how do I find out which dog breed best suits me as a hunter? What kind of hunting can he do with me and what exactly do I have to do once I have acquired a dog?
