I would love to be able to get a SH title, but obviously my goal now is JH so I’m focusing on that.

Judging from the attitude I see in the photo, your dog is capable of attaining an MH title.

Be consistent, teach and train on concepts.

I already have 1-3 of Lardy's stuff. What else is good?

Do you mean volume 1-3?

“Total retriever, training” and “total retriever marking” are very good.
There is good information in all of them. Among field trainers, Lardy is widely considered the gold standard.
Training with successful Field trial competitors has helped me more than anything else.
I have never been to one, but various pros will put on seminars. Everyone I’ve talked to said they are always very beneficial.

You can learn a lot at a Field trial by watching pros and successful amateurs handle their dogs. There is purpose in everything they do from the time they get the dog from the truck until they return from the line.

Do you have total retriever marking? I was interested until I read this review awhile back Lardy: Total Retriever Marking

Yes, I have it and need to watch it again. There is no problem with the audio that I recall.
I’ll watch some of it again tonight and tomorrow.
I’ll lend it to you if you’d like.

Do you know if Mike Lardy’s Total Retriever Trainings walks you through the steps of FF?

Yes it does. The volume 1 articles explain it also.
