Gun Dog Forum

Hiking with the pup last weekend and she locks up on point! Wife and I kept on walking toward her and out fly 2 quail from a sage brush bush. Wife doesn't carry a gun but goes hunting with me and said she can't wait for hunting season...........

35 pheasants up 11 in the freezer. First hunting dog, a GSP, just over a year old. We are having a BLAST! Oh, and about 12 quail in the freezer, too many up to count LOL!

Great looking pup mowerman!

Congrats. Can't wait to see the little guy.

My pup is 1 year old and started doing this occasionally. I have been getting her back in the game by saying find me a bird or use the come command to get her moving. Seems to be working. In time I'm hoping she figures out those distant shots don't mean anything to her.

I followed the Perfect Start Perfect Finish program. These videos will answer most of your questions and give you step by step instruction on how to train your pup. I'm a first time GSP owner and never trained a bird dog before. Here is a pic of my PUP at 1 year old. The program works and is well wo...

Got permission to hunt on approx. 25 private acres that borders a WMA. Outside of the tenant and his buddy, I am the only other person allowed to hunt there. Yesterday was opening day and I got 1 LOL! this is my first time hunting dove and I might of had better luck if I stayed later. BTW 2 dove alm...

Have the Dogtra PL/QL rechargeable and has worked perfect.

Glad you had a great time. My 9 month old GSP, since it got warm, has been retrieving bumpers from the water. She paws at the top of the water while going out but it is way worse when she gets the bumper and heads back. Late yesterday afternoon I decided to take a couple of pigeons to a pond so she ...

We were kenneling our GSP pup while at work (typical 8-5 workday). At about 5 months we put her in an outside 6 x 12 dog run and she did fine. I think your pup refuses to be outside because she knows your home and wants to be around you. Once you leave for work she should calm down. Just to make sur...

My GSP is almost 6 months old and it sounds like your pup has the same attitude as my pup. I have been following PS/PF to the letter and have shot a pigeon over my pup. Doesn't sound like you have a bird drive problem. As far as intro to birds, she needs to learn she can't catch the bird. Using a ch...

Had a nice scent cone. About a 30ft point. About 3 months.

Welcome to the forum. I live in Boise, Idaho so we must be neighbors. Our GSP is 5+ months old and I am following PS/PF for bird training and The Monks of New Skeet Art of Training a Puppy 2nd edition for house/obedience training. When our pup was 2 days old I ordered PS/PF and watched it regularly ...

For obedience and understanding what a puppy goes thru from birth on, we read The Monks of New Skeet Art of Raising a Puppy 2nd edition. It Is very informative starting with what puppies are learning whi...

We got our first GSP Dec. 21st. First 2 weeks, because of the holidays, some one was home to let her out. Fast forward to today 12 weeks old. Crate when we leave for work. 3 days a week we have someone come walk her during lunch. The other 2 days I go home and let her out then back in she goes. We w...

Hi Everyone, Bob here and I live in Boise, Idaho. The last 5-6 years I have spent modifying street bikes and drag racing them. My best time in the 1/4 mile was 9.44 @ 146 mph. At 52 it's time I slow down a little lol! and the bike is for sale. I have been pheasant hunting on occasion and find that i...
