Does anyone have one of the new A5's looking for some opinions. You can read about them and hold them in the store but I was looking for some field style feedback.

sniperjon

I have one. now that the days are getting shorter and the dog is out more in the dark she will bark at any old sound. it works for my dog and does not affect any training I do but thats me.

sniperjon

It has to be a good kennel. some places just let the pup eat, poop and sleep with no play time or personnal interaction. Make sure you know what your getting.

sniperjon

Dogs are a pack animal. You are the one thing that pup wants 99 percent of the time. " In the house" bonding at night is important putting the crate next to the bed will help. Some forks sleep with there dog in the bed. If this is not somethig you want to do then at least put the pup where they can ...

will my pups doing the same thing I started overlap with the e collar and am making great progress. I also get worried when I can't she ruby. YOU just have to trust the dog. She bonds with you everyday she knows that yourher owner. Get a beeper thats what I did and put my mind at ease just to hear w...

Injoy watching her grow and learn it's one of the best parts

So I'm gun shopping and for haha's I was trying the fit of a stoeger and found something did not like. When you pull the gun up and look down the rib to the bead the back of the frame where the barrel meets it is higher the the rib. So it's almost like your lining up the bead with the top of the fra...

Good question

sniperjon

I have a soft dog and I did started with sit, no, and down but all in the house with treats. Outside lots of wing and play time. Let your pup explore as he or she grows the basic things you teach them when they are young will help with more advanced traing later

I have been looking on the INTERNET and found one that seemed to be in my price range. I thought the DT 509 quail and pigeon launcher looks to be a good one. My concern is that I have seen some u-tube pics launching some quail but no pigeon. A pigeon is a little heavier than a quail. My concern is,...

Also if folks are interested in ordering bird from them the website as been updated today to refelct new pricing and what birds th...

sniperjon

To be honest I'm more disapointed then mad. Now I got to find someone else with birds and wait some more.

sniperjon

ya sound like a good idea. just sucks

sniperjon

Does anyone have experience with this company. I have been trying to contact them about some birds I ordered and have not recieved. The phone overthere goes to the recorder. I left messages with no reply for two weeks now.

sniperjon

Look at a post from jan,30 under training I think it was titled reaising pigeons

sniperjon

Front wheel drive

I did wood ducks but I went and set up nesting box's in my swamp and took the eggs from the nest two weeks after lay. It's not easy to find people with good eggs. Most of the time ordered and shiped duck eggs get dry on the way to you.

New haven not far from me. Have you spent any time in east windor to do any field trials.

sniperjon

Sounds good.

sniperjon

I have done egg's if you get local eggs the success rate is much higher then ordered and shipped eggs. Ill pm you info tonight. Also depends on how many eggs you plan to hatch 50 eggs is alot of work unless you have a good incubator with auto Turner. If you don't by the time you buy eggs and all the...

sniperjon

I usually buy day old but the past two yrs have had no luck finding anyone who would ship to me here in upsate NY. Perhaps the economy is hard on the breeders. A guy who raises gamebirds close to where I live has informed me he will have quail for me this year. I have also heard recently about the ...

sniperjon

Chicks is the was I went fot ordered fron suddenflushgamebirds.com they had the but s best price. I have done chicks before. I wanted to get some breeding adults to mix with what I have to keep the blood good. Quail grow fast I will just wait for the mew batch to grow

sniperjon

sniperjon

Looking for a place yo order quail egg beside's mcmurry or the overpriced hacking sites

When I was a teenager I borrowed a o/u from a oldtimer down the road shoot at some birds that afternnoon on the way back to the truck I pulled in on a nice ringneck. After shooting at the bird I found myself on my back a was bleeding. Afrer getting my bearings realized both barrels had gone off and ...

sniperjon

Look at a post in general chat from Feb 14 titled which e collar to buy. There is some good info there

sniperjon

Stick with tt or if your going to go sportdog save a little more and get the 2525. But most ill say tt is yhe better brand

sniperjon

I need a roading harness to fit a 25-30 lb dog and have been unsuccessful finding one. Bought a really nice amish made one...my dogs could walk right out of it. Was going to order one from one of the gun dog supply sites...saw it on a friend's dog this weekend (one that probably has 6-7 pounds on m...

Nice deck to shoot some clays ftom

I just was reading some post the other day with the names of some soft dog programs and cant seem to find them again. I' m loking to read some more before move on in my pups training,

sniperjon

happy time is the thing right now.

sniperjon

I was thinking of getting her on some wild birds. thought that might spark something.

sniperjon

My pup is 6 months and is at the point in her obed training to be on a collar.

sniperjon

I posted a while back about my pup not responding to pigoens in the launcher and got some good feedback.So I went back to basics. My issue is my pup 6 month britt is not using her nose to find birds. when she see's or hears a songbird or a pigoen she gets exited and sometimes points naturaly. I have...

sniperjon

Thanks everyone

sniperjon

I've started collar training. And was thinking of getting a invisible fence for the yard. I was thinking that having both it would confuse my pup. And thoughts?

sniperjon

I have the chance buy a older fixed chokes 12 in great sharp. It fits me nice. It's got nickel on the sides rest is blued. 200 bucks.

sniperjon

Anyone own one? I know there are a few models. Seems like a ok older cheap used gun.

sniperjon

My wife and I both work a full day. Be prepared to take your pup right outside to go to the bathroom also the pup has been holding it in all day so just because the pissed once does not mean they are done. Being in a creat all day sucks I know but your pup will get use to it. I just spend alot of ti...

sniperjon

Yes I agree it's how the collar is used. I have a soft pup and have started with a collar. Just find a program that will work for a soft fog

sniperjon

Wanted to know if anyone has been using this collar and likes dislikes.

sniperjon

I use them because i don't have a helper most of the time. I live on 4 acres so I can come home from work and set the launchers out loaded with birds and then get the dog out and work her on them. The kids have all grown and the grandkids aren't quite old enough to be much help. I'm in the same sit...

sniperjon

I found the ones I tried did not fly well out of a launcher

Just out of curiousity, where do you pheasant hunt (what state or states).We go to Kansas a few times a year in hopes to get into pheasant and quail. Take a Beretta 12 ga o/u, a 20 ga Benelli Montefeltro and a 28 ga. CZ s/s. Havn't taken the 12 ga out of it case in about 4 years, but usually are up...
