BILL WEST
Two Days of Intensive Training for Bird Dogs and their Owners

APRIL 15th & 16th, 2000

Bill West has professionally trained bird dogs for over 50 years. He is so highly regarded that other professional trainers send their "hard to train" dogs to him. Thus, Bill is known as the "dog whisperer" for his gentle but highly effective training method. Bill is also an avid bird hunter and his classy dogs are in demand by discriminating sportsmen throughout the country.
