Re: If your buying a gundog????

I basically done this earlier this year. Had 3 dogs that (in my mind) were started dogs. Out of desperation I put them up for free. Some of them are in trials. Some are hunting. All are really good dogs. Unfortunately all the time and money you spend will only be lessons learned. Cut your losses and...
