A friend swears by Nature's Miracle Skunk Odor Remover. I bought a bottle and keep it in my truck, just in case he gets hit in the field.

Is the Sport Basic receiver the same as the pro receiver? I know the transmitters are different, but I didn't know if they used the same receiver.

Thanks for the replies. I already owned Perfect Start, but Perfect Finish is on the way. I will be ordering Gun Dog's pointing series as well.

I am speaking on Gun Dog's pointing series DVD's with Bob West, not Bill West's silent training methods.

I already have some dvd's but was wondering if the Gun Dog Intermediate and Advanced Pointing DVD's were worth buying.

Can the proof of purchase for Native dog food be redeemed? I had someone say that after so many bags you could get a free bag, but at the feed store they said that Native didn't have this type of program.

I had a 8 foot really light cord that I had my pup dragging around when he was 10 weeks old just to get him acquainted with a check cord, bought for a quarter at a garage sale.

I was in a similar situation and I started looking for a cage to hold birds. I eventually bought an old rabbit hutch for $5.00 off craigslist and fixed it up a little to hold quail or pigeons. I then bought a remote bird launcher, costly but has been worth it. I tethered the birds to be used again. ...

Does anyone have a Lowe's dog kennel? I am in the market for a kennel for my French Brittany and I was looking at this kennel from Lowe's. They will deliver which is a plus. http://www.lowes.com/pd_362630-1298-CL+60548_0__?productId=3456334&Ntt=dog+kennel&pl=1¤tURL=%3FNtt%3Ddog%2Bkennel&facetI...

To the original questions here would be some potential alternatives, UKC for field trials and NAVHDA for testing.

Thanks Rich my initial thoughts were leaning to the Garmin, the price looked great. However, if you want the beeper the price ends up being about the same and I am always leery of buying a brand new model. Especially when they have a whole new manufacturing line. Anyone else out there using the 550 ...

I am looking at purchasing either an Uplander Special G3 or the new Garmin 550. Those that have the new 550 how do you like it? Has anyone worked with both collars and what was your favorite.

I am looking at the Kane Big Bin Food Dispenser, does anyone have a better option?

Thanks for the replies, I never used a whistle with my last two dogs. However, I do see the advantages of using them.

I have a French Brittany pup that I have started training, and would like to purchase a whistle. What whistle do you prefer and why.
