I could not have picked a better trainer for my Brittany. John took my puppy and me from the initial basic command stages through steady to wing and shot. He clearly cares about the dogs he trains. He not only trained my dog but also trained me through the process. He patiently answered all my questions either in person or on the phone. Wading through the web and books I found much conflicting advise. I blindly put the training in Johns hands and followed his direction & wow what a dog I ended up with. None of it would have been possible without East Coast Field Dog. And o yea the trading sessions were a complete blast for me and my dog. Would absolutely recommend.
