Nice!

Nice looking dogs. At least you get them out

You can feel good about that.

Nice photos. Looks like you had a good time.

Surprises me, too. Noses on coyotes in my part of the country are nowhere near as good as our bird dogs'.....at least as far as pheasants, sharptail, and Huns are concerned. And as far as a dog at 8 months not being any good as a bird dog......Sorry, I just don't buy it. Your mileage may vary.

It is so interesting how hunting with a dog can help change us.........Nice post.

hettmoe

I don't understand the problem.

Yes!

We always make ours out of old belting from a round baler. Every rancher/farmer with a round baler has some old stuff that he should have no problem parting with.

What a great blessing. I am very happy for you both

The actual destination would be less important than the dogs and the friends along and, simply being there. However, if actually dreaming, I would dream about a trip reunited with those friends and dogs now gone, as dreams make that possible. We would, in that dream, revist some alder runs in the U...

Last year about this time, I posted that my dog just turned 15. Well, guess what, 365 days and an awesome hunting season later, the old girl is still goin!

Introduction to the Gun is what I would be the most concerned about. Almost all of the Cattle Dogs that I have been around are excited about hunting until they see a gun

hettmoe

Yeah, it's a lot of fun to watch them. Too bad JSU couldn't get anything going at all. Pretty tough defense

hettmoe

I am very glad for you and your dog

I use a Nikon D7000, too. I would go with something in the 5000 series at least, if a Nikon feels good in her hands. Canon and Nikon are like Chevy and Ford, to me. I have friends in both camps, and everyone seems happy

My dogs always poop upwind of the truck whenever we first get to a hunting spot. They face into the wind. :D Are you sure? Into the wind? Please check and report back. They both did exactly that very thiñg this morning. The guy hunting with me thinks they are trying to tell me something... He laugh...

You had best give yourself credit for getting your dog out so she can do what she was born to do. That is, by far, the most important thing you can be good at. Dogs are very forgiving creatures. She doesn't think that you are going to get them all.

Looks like it was fun!

Absolutely!

Sounds and looks like a good time.

Did you get Greta here in ND? She looks a lot like my dog.

You're going to have alot of fun with Huck!

Keep us posted

I have missed many opportunities because I carry my camera and try to take pictures of all of the points that my dogs make. I don't hunt without it. I am glad to see that you take the time to do the same.

:D Neil, I believe "he", is the individual that expressed contempt for a pointer in the pheasant fields. Yeah, I was answering the original, and only, question of the original poster. :D Sorry, I seem to get confused more often these days. Yeah....It's ok, I've been a member of that club for awhile....

No. He is not even close to being right. I believe that pheasants are suited for people who like to get their dogs out

In my opinion, your older dog probably can teach your pup a few real important things. I would take them together, and then hunt them separately if you get frustrated, so you can teach her the correct way to do some things that she is missing. I think that the most important thing is for you to get ...

I am very happy for you

Go have fun with your dog!

Looks like the two of you had a good time

Bird season opens next week here in NH, and I swear my Brittany knows it. She was pointing like crazy at a bunch of flickers in a field on our walk this afternoon, then found a nice woodcock to point, flush, and point again. This girl wants to hunt! She's looking like a very patient dog, waiting fo...

It is stronger than you need, but something to consider while we wait for someone with experience.

Thanks, Neil.

I have Labs, a bit heavy to lift. I have a Petsmart ramp. Works well off any tailgate and even reaches up to the holes of a topper rig. Ramps are better for dogs in the long run. The impacts of jumping up and especially down are hard on the joints. Thanks. Which one? Telescoping, or folding? It can...

hettmoe

Yeah, Ezzy, I had always lifted them up without a problem, too. But things change..... :D Thanks, Neil, I have checked this link out, but almost all the reviews are for either cars or SUVs, and I am wondering if anyone has used any of these successfully with a pickup that is probably a little higher...

hettmoe

I am wondering if anyone has any suggestions or experience with folding or telescoping ramps that will work for getting an old dog up on and down from a 3/4 ton pickup tailgate. Thanks.

I use a Camelback, so I am not limited to using it only while actually hunting.

hettmoe

I always carry a Camelback, or whatever they are called.... And I always squirt water for them/on them, long before I think that they need to drink. I think that by doing it this way, we avoid the big gulps at the end of a run/hunt. As mentioned before, young dogs don't always have a very good sense...
