[PyrNet-L] If pyrs were easy to train

[s6.5x55@juno.com (peter p mauser)]

I have been lurking on this list for awhile.  I'm 52 yrs. old and had a
dog all my life. Mostly mutts, but have had a german sheperd, standard
poodle,and a  yellow  lab. Presently have a 11 yr. old lab/golden mix. 
This dog will retrieve in water or on land, point, tree and track.
Perfect dog for kids. Great companion. I didn't train  him to do any  of
these things.  Still , we don't  consider him one of the brighter dogs
we've had.  Not good at  parlor tricks.  FWIW, I found out it makes
everything easier later on if the dog first learns  the word "NO" , 
without question or consideration on his part. This makes obedience
training less frustrating, especially through the  puppy stage.
The  purpose  of this post, is that all the mail I've been reading  about
pyrs, why would anyone bother with them?         
                                                   Peter
