Real nice. Anybody have a pic of 1/2" pitch or experience. Just weighing the options. I don't know if you will see 1/8" of a difference in a picture. I don't see 1/2" pitch being necessary. With a 1/2" pitch on 10ft of floor you are going to drop 5". Where on a 3/8" pitch you will drop 3-3/4" in th...

I think you heard them wrong, those look like German wirehair pointers not GSP. So how much research did you do on breeds before you picked one out?

One bit of "culture shock" going from pits to pointers, is the amount of off leash time a pointer will need when compared to a pit. My LM who spends 8:30-4:00 in the kennel needs an hour of hard running and some training activities to keep the edge off but I have to make sure he gets good an draine...

I'm going to take a guess here and say you probably want a 1/4" grade on it, maybe even 3/8". Anything less than 1/4" per foot slope may cause standing water.RayJ wrote:What amount of pitch do you guys use on your slabs? Looking for really good run off so any advice is appreciated.

I don't see how tripe is going to reduce the amount of acid in dogs urine. I saw that it's good for their stomach so maybe it just cleans out all the acidity crap they get from the dog food.
