If you are still looking for a vet I would highly recommend Dr. Mike Van Zomeren at hunter animal hospital. He is a great vet. He owns, hunts and field trials pointing dogs. I feel more comfortable having a vet that knows the rigors and demandthese dogs deal with in the chukar hills and hunting in g...

The Utah GSP club is going to be holding a trial at the same grounds in Mesquite on Thursday and Friday before the LVBDC trial on Saturday and Sunday. Just and FYI.

Nice looking dog. How is it bred? I have a 4 month old pup that looks just like this dog.

I am no expert by any means and I haven't seen either dog. In terms of a national championship, I would think Bo would have a little advantage or Jabba, because Bo was born and raised in the West Tennessee area. Jabba has to make the adjustment of coming from the West. It is a tremendous accomplish...

Without a doubt I think they should have wild bird hunting under thier belt. In my mind, it is what the sport is about, hunting dogs. I think using a judge without that expieriance would be like taking your car in for an oil change and dropping it off at a collision shop. They both deal with cars i...

I think a lot of people miss the point of training with a barrel. Dogs learn by association. If a puppy gets up on the barrel and that barrel is perceived by the puppy as a dangerous place the association is not a positive one. If the pup is allowed to stand on the barrel with no interaction from t...

There are a lot of people out there that do not have the space to use and keep a whoa barrel set up. Here is an easy way to get started. Get the screw type eye bolt and screw it into the ceiling of your garage. Put a plastic dog crate underneath it and measure off your rope or chain. Tie a clip to e...

There are several trials here in Utah that may be canceled due to all bird suppliers out of birds. Does anybody know of any for sale in any western states ?

I am in the shag crew, would like to see Bo win it. Who is this Jax Jabba dog, I know he is out of patriot but you never hear anything about him. Is he re-qualified? Is Jettsetter retired?

First steps is a good starting place for sure. It goes through the basics from bird intro., gun intro., bird placement, socializing, etc. The owner of Hideaway kennel is a stand up guy, I am very happy with the results of the work he has done with my dogs. Here is a link to preview the video. http:/...

Ben Garcia has a very good summer training program and camp. Very good. Very hard working. I recommend him highly. http://www.hideawaykennels.com/dog-training-camps/summer-camp.html I agree, a straight shooter and all around stand up guy. He just put on a great seminar in Utah a couple of weeks ago.

What is your set up like for roading dogs from 4 wheelers? What works best for you? Just trying to get a few ideas. Who made your set up?

I had a dog that would get torn up by barbed wire fence alot. If there was a fence anywhere close he would find it. The worst was a tear about the size of a dollar bill on his chest. He hit the fence and I could hear the wire stretch. I checked him out and he looked fine so we continued hunting. Whe...

tyleetess

There is none. You probably have an hour drive east at least to get into birds. The further east you go the better hunting you can into. Fort Collins is just as much city as the subburbs of denver. There is some waterfowl hunting around there but far and few between and very expensive.

Intersesting. I'm assuming all AF rules and regs. apply? I had heard something about it but had no idea it was actually sanctioned and thriving over there.

Did I read the AF site correctly, are there really trials in Japn? If, so what type of dogs are usually there? Does anyone from the US really go or has it taken off over there?

How often do pigeons lay eggs? I am sure there is something you can do to get them lay all year possibly? I am just wondering the regular cycle, I am assuming spring time as the weather get warmer but uncertain.

I didn't know you could change your second 5 day period. How do you go about that? I've always bought mine online. You can also change it online as long as you put the last 5 days down for the last 5 days of the season it's a matter of minutes and you can print out the new dates. I am unfamiliar wi...

I got 3 of my dogs through the snake avoidence class this year. They had a hard time with it and I don't know how well it took. It seemed some dogs took to it better than others, such as the dogs that were there from the search and rescue or joggers that hadn't seen much of the e-collar.

I am going to have it done here in Utah. Seems the first month of chukar hunting season can have have snakes out then it gets a little cold.

Preserves are not like wild bird hunting but I visit them after the season to work on the dogs and truthfully it's better than no bird hunting at all. I'm sure there are clubs in your area that don't advertise just rely on word of mouth advertising, these clubs tend to be a cheaper and you still wil...

Colorado can offer some good bird hunting. There is a lot of scouting that goes into it. There is some decent waterfowl both ducks and geese. Most of the geese are hunted in the Nortern part of the state and expand outward to the Sterling area and drop off around Lamar area. Most of the waterfowl ar...

Nagda has expanded a little bit, hopefully it will get to your area and you will have an oppurtinity to run in one of these trials. I can't say enough about it. Truely a blast as well as good competion

There is a possibility that I may have to move to Texas for my job and I was wondering what the snake situation was down there. I've heard mixed reviews about the amount of snakes, I HATE SNAKES.
