This is Book 4 of The Falconer's Apprentice Series. Every falconer needs to seriously consider adding a dog (or two!) to the team. In this book, the quarry is rabbit. What is the best dog breed to use for hunting rabbits with a hawk? With the help of eight highly accomplished rabbit hawkers, we explore the virtues of the Beagle, Brittany Spaniel, Jack Russell's Terrier, and Miniature Dachshund. Learn about selecting a pup, how to raise and train a rabbit-hunting dog, and how to hunt them under a hawk. This is the only book of its kind!

I submitted a few articles to show them that there was still more to say about apprentices, Red-tailed hawks, and falconry ethics. They agreed to let me write the Beginners' Circle.
