I got a new pup that has been "started". Guy I bought her from did teach her to sit but that's it! I've been working her everyday for the past two weeks and seems like no hope. At 6-7 months old should she be doing alot more? Or is it too late? Oh and far as a kennel or trainer I can't afford it! Any advice would help on where to start. And I have been try to make her heel and learn the command but she only knows sit!

Have you trained a dog before?
If not get the Water Dog book and read it 2 or 3 times. That will get you off to the right start.
Your dog definitely is not too old to learn. Most dogs hit a hard-headed streak about 6 or 7 months old.
Work mostly on the obedience at first and let the retrieving be the fun part.

Water dog is a good book for the basic commands, it's time proven and it works. U have to be repetitive with the dog.

never to late!!! the book they are referring to is very good, there is also a video as well as several short youtube videos you can watch. the key is being consistent and working at least 10 to 15 minutes every day. always end training on a good note and if you get frustrated the pup will sense it.

Get yourself either

Evan Graham's Smartwork video series
~or~
Rick Stawski's Fowl Dawgs video series

Another good book is game dog. Same author as water dog. Has a few additional methods. Trained my first off water dog before i knew about game dog. Used Game Dog on this one and had great results.

Teaching a dog to just sit should have never classified the dog as "started" hope you didnt over pay for the pup dawg

Thanks guys.... Looks like I'm buying a book.... Lol ... I appreciate it

When training just remember their attention span is at its strongest in the first ten minutes of training, they'll start fading and that's hen u get the most frustrated, throw fun bumpers and kennel him/her. Try again in a couple hours. Repeat repeat repeat
