Gentlemen, There are 6 gun dogs here all live in and out of our homes and our homes are well kept, clean and orderly. The dogs live in a disciplined situation and are a great part of our family. Get more than one GSP pup, 2 or 3 would be better. My buddy Harold just had 18 Weimar pups from two of h...

Well this weekend went well. I didnt get to see the mom or the dad but I did get to meet the breeder and his wife. I got to see his facilities and he had 6 dogs at his place. All from the same type of line. Got to meet the matriarch of his program who is also the great-great grandma (17 years old) o...

Humbled... Nothing better for that than bragging on a public forum. Of course there is no sweeter feeling than bragging and winning! But that didn't happen so I will just wait for the next tome we meet LSU. I hope it's not anoter 15 years! The teams played well and for the most part the fans were ci...

So far so good!!!! Whoop!!!!

Mrcreole... I'll take that bet...

All the rest of y'all... Without going into too much detail, our running game is a double threat and the wrecking crew will show the nation that it's for real! Tannehill is new but as good a quarterback as the big 12 can offer!

We shall see ladies... We shall see!!

My wife and I are going to see a breeder this weekend. The parents of the pups we are looking into are not there (they are being trialed right now) but he has some dogs out of the same litter as the sire (as I understand it) and works real close with the dame's owner. What kind of questions should I...

Ags-24 LSU-35. I'm telling your mom!!! You ought to be ashamed of yourself! :lol: God bless the Aggies for taking Sherman the Accountant out of the coaching pool for the NFL and NCAA alike.

The Aggies are gonna beat the ever livin outta the swamp kitties tonight and I'm gonna be there to see it happen! After tonight the SEC will be glad we didnt decide to come over (even though this Ag wishes we would have!). All you LA bird doggers, you better get ready, it aint gonna be pretty!!! htt...

Ok well without gettin into a "I'm more salt of the earth than you are" aregument, I just think that your logic is flawed. Who decides which words are off limits ? Most people over the age of 14 cuss. I understand that there are certain circumstances in which it is deemed inappropriate, I just think...

I'm saying that the fact that a word can offend people is funny to me. The whole concept seems rather juvenile. Speak kindly to me, beloved master. ... I find it interesting how these two sentences come from the same person. Please try to talk to your dog kindly while using a curse word... I can te...

Welcome!! Beautiful pup!

As a newbie I appreciate the freedom this board affords me. What I mean by that is I can come to this forum and say something like "Whats a check cord?" and not prepare myself for a barrage of insults and "STFU's" and many more. I know that I will get a kind and informative answer. I am on a forum t...

proudag08

Sorry, but I think you took to much out of that one comment. First off, I was not talking about his training plans, I was talking about the wild bird season in Arizona and what he is doing after it is over. Your right though, I do not know exactly what he plans to do WITH TRAINING... but I did not ...

proudag08

I think it comes down to knowing enough about what the trainer has done in the past to having faith in what he does without having to know every littlew detail of how he does it. I get that, but at the same time its not like your pup or dog is forever trained when he comes home from the trainer. I ...

proudag08

I don't know the trainers plans really, I just pay the bills... Does any one else find this sentence a little unerving? I mean, I am in no way an expert but it seems to me that if I was making this kind of investment and/or putting my future hunting success and dog's welfare in this trainers hands ...

Used to, the new posts link would show you all the posts that you had not read yet. Now it only shows you the new posts from the last time you logged in.

Yeah because in AZ they sleep under the covers!!! Ha ha ha Im kidding around!

Thats great!!! Glad you have a good hunt!

proudag08

Ezzy, is right. I can sort of identify with you since I have waited a long time and am already in love with a pup that doesnt even exist yet! It will be hard but you can do it! Remember the dog you had as he was in the field, not sedated and/or highly medicated like he would have to be! Its hard I k...

I feel like I am in a unique position as the "over zealous newbie that annoys the crap out of everyone" (self given nick name). So I will give my input from the perspective of your target audience. It seems to me that there are two different camps here. The ones that have access to wild birds and th...

Not saying it's the case here, but... It's like having a bunch of books, DVDs, etc is harmful. That's because when we do, we want to try out the new tool or we try to train faster. A dear friend told me: In dog training (mostly) less is more and (mostly) later is better than sooner. In that vein......

PS For what it is worth There are some GSP's which just have a nasty attitude... So this little quote got me thinking.

As a newbie that just got done doing the research for breeds and breeders here are some things I did to narrow down my search... 1. I am a visual person so I wrote out a list of the most popular gun dog breeds. From there I asked the forum what the strengths and weaknesses are of the breeds (see htt...

Maybe I have been unclear... I plan on joining clubs, going to training days, maybe a seminar, watching DVD's, reading books, in addition to and to supplement the hands on training. I have chosen a breeder that is willing to help me as needed (although I dont know if he knews what he has signed up f...

proudag08

Ok well let me revise my question then...

If you could go back and read any three books before you got your puppy or new gun dog, what would it be (title and auther if you have it). Thanks!

proudag08

I thought your breeder was going to help (mentor or whatever) with the training. I think that would be a better program if possible, you'll get to see and do more that way than any video or book you might read. Also, the money saved on books/videos could be put towards training birds. Or, go attend...
