I cant find much information on the net regarding different training techniques for training search and rescue dogs. So i bought the book 'Search and rescue dogs, training the k9 hero - american rescue dog association'.
Are there any other decent books on the market that anyone can recommend?

If you can get hold of a copy of:

Ready by Susan Bulanda - Doral Publishing

Then you have the 2 best out there (its hard to get a copy now though).

i was looking for that one. but it doesnt seem to be available anymore, which means buying second hand. Thats all good and well except i can only find copies for like £70!

There are several US sites you can get it off and shipped over.

You can get it second hand on the US Amazon site for less than $40 +$12 shipping. At the current exchange rate this is only around £27 total.

Thanks for that. I ordered it yesterday from barnes and noble second hand for £30 inc shipping. So here's to hoping the shipping doesnt take too long!

[wrinklypear]

Yea, mine ended up costing £27.65 inc. shipping. But it did say that shipping is 15-20 days!! Must be carrier pigeon!
