Background
Charlie Jurney's been training performance and hunting dogs for more than 30 years. During that time he's produced hundreds of titled dogs including Grand Hunting Retriever Champions, Hunting Retriever Champions, Master Hunters, Grand Master Hunting Retriever Champions, and Master Hunting Retrievers. His writings have been featured in The Retriever Journal, Just Labs, The Pointing Dog Journal, and numerous other specialty journals. Charlie and his personal dogs have led many folks through their training programs with videos like 'Game Dog,' 'Gun Dog,' and 'Water Dog.' He's also used his training experiences to complete his own training manual, Finished Dog, which has become a favourite for the amateur trainer.
