But be careful because it’s the internet, and plenty of people offer bad advice
RTF has more dog training knowledge than any place on the net and is typically 100% spot on.
Wolters was not a trainer (he was an editor), his books were/are pretty useless IMO if you want a real dog.
OP should spend more time than he is training since it sounds like his dog is taking to training. There’s a fine line between too little and too much, learn to read your dog and adjust accordingly.
Not a fan of YouTube trainers but if it’s working keep doing it until it doesn’t.
Good Luck, enjoy the milestones.

I work mon-Friday and get home at 4:50 it gets dark at 5:30 so I’m honestly training as much as I can. I think the dog is just lazy when it comes to training or at least in this part which is why I’m seeking possibly an alternative way to collar condition my dog and honestly I’ll never use place, I’ve just never trained one so I found a program I thought would be the easiest for me and I went with it. The last dog I had I sent him to a trainer and he was a hunting machine. But since then life has happened and I could use $600 a month in a better way.

Op, ignore this, it is very bad advice.

I knew the bat signal would go out to you on a retriever training thread on the OB.
Now let’s debate trials versus hunt tests lol.
Enjoyed the fishing trip btw.
