I highly recommend Dun Roven Kennels. Rich and his wife do a great job! I currently have 2 pups from them. One is 7 months old and has about 35 solid woodcock points so far this spring. Points, backs, and reteives (the dummy) all naturally. The other one is 5 months old and is pointing Pigeons and r...

We run the dogs off of bikes as well but I'm trying to rig up an ATV roading system for the dog. I would say that you're a bit behind if you're trying to get the dog in shape for this season - you'll need at least 3 months of conditioning for the dog to be in top form. You don't need 3 months to ge...

I made my own. I've got $5 in the metal and probably $15 in the hardware. I went 1 1/2 secured to the bike and 1" as a outrigger. 1 1/4 does not slide in 1 1/2 I tried. I would also make the outrigger longer than 3'. I think I went 4' and 6" slides into the 1 1/2 so you have 3 1/2' sticking out. htt...

I could never feed my dogs as thier stools were really loose. Yeah, there were issues with native at one time, water under the bridge now though. So you saying they fixed this? I used to buy native by the pallet but got sick of hosing down kennels. Dogs did good on it. Had a chance to buy kinetic w...

Take a look at this link. I have a pup out of scooby. I've seen him run several times. Nice dog. Hopefully I can get another one out of him.

Anyone using the sportdog TEK 1.0? Any feedback would be appreciated. I make a couple of trips each year to chase grouse in Michigan and have decided I would like a the "insurance" of having a gps collar on my dogs. My thinking is the garmin is probably a better all around collar, but for hunting in...

That head crank is all natural. I need to get a updated picture those are old pictures. Now that he is older he has his head high and the tail is 12:00 and straight as a arrow. I've got 2 dogs from Bergs and they are as nice if not nicer than anything I've ever had and I've had a few.

hoosier

My setter points with his head up like this everytime and he gets higher the longer he stands. He gets it from his grand daddy Berg's Brother Jack. I love it!

This is my 10 month old pup from Berg Brother Setters. I'm thinking of "Berg's Honky Tonk" for his registered name.

hoosier

The farm is only 6 miles from my house where the loft is now. I guess I could just take the pigeons over there and hope they return to the loft at my house.

hoosier

I have a pigeon loft at my house and the birds are coming back to it. If I move the loft to a new farm I have access too and after a few days let the birds out will they return to the loft?

I really like my Mac/Sue pup i got from Jim Harmon. Natural all the way around.

I used to have GSP's, bought a EP and haven't looked back. I've got two EP's that retrieve as well as any lab out there.

hoosier

According to a handful of people I have talked to there is very little temperature difference between Insulated vs uninsulated. Expecially once you put a horse mat down with good bedding in the hole and with the 12" of storage on top acting as a attic. The premier should hold about the same temperat...

hoosier

I guess the questions maybe should have been is one better than the other? Premier vs Ainley

hoosier

I've ended up with 2 four hole dog trailers. I am going to sell one but can decided which one. Any suggestions would be welcomed. Below is what I got. They are both about the same age (10 years) and same condidition. The ainley is insulated, the premier is not. Other than that they are both nice and...

hoosier

I have 4 hole premier dog trailer that needs new tires. My question is do I need trailer tires or can I put regular car tires on the trailer. car tires are what came on it.

hoosier

That's where I got it $24.99 bag. The elevator in town carries Sportmix but not the black bag for $22 a bag. They will order me the black and sell it at the same price, but I have to buy what ever I tell them to order me. I figured I would buy a few bags from TSC and make sure I like it first.

hoosier

After reading this thread, I switched from Exceed to the black bag 24/20, so far very happy with the switch. Dogs are eating fine and stools look good.

hoosier

What ever happened to Hunters Edge? About 3 years ago it appeared alot of people were switching to this food. Haven't heard it mentioned in a while.

Can permatak attach a ID plate to the collar?

I have checkcords from permatak. Great product and great people to deal with.

I am looking at buying a e-collar for training only. I have a Dogtra 2002 t&b for hunting, but don't like it for training. Looking at the TT G3 100 and the Sportdog 1825. Any recommendations?

hoosier

I've got a male that is bred Crows Little Joe / Miller with a little Elhew mixed in and he's got a canon of a nose. One of the better noses I've seen in a long time. Now the down side is you need a 2x4 to get him to listen :) My Elhew bred dog has a average nose, but handles like a house dog. I thin...

I have a 6 month old EP that I want to send out west this coming summer to get exposure to wild birds. Looking for suggestions on who to send him with. He is not a trial dog just a hunting dog that may run some NSTRA. I live in Indiana, but transporting the dog to the right guy is not a problem. Wou...

hoosier

The dog would be moving on down the road if it was mine.

Thanks for the info.

Anybody use Glycocharge? Do you recommend it? I'm going on a 10 day hunt out west and thought I might give it a try.

I was going to have to take this pup back if I wanted a replacement. Which if it would have been spring vs middle of hunting season I would have made the drive for a exchange. Instead I decided to keep the pup which was a good decision since everything worked out, but I was going to try to work a de...

hoosier

Good news! We have 2 now. Going to the vet next Fri for a Rabie shot, I will have her confirm.

hoosier

Anybody use these or heard anything about them?

hoosier

I've decide to keep this male and hope like heck the other one drops. He is well bred, is pointing and holding pretty good, and retrieving frozen birds at 1 week shy of 16 weeks old. Not saying he is going to be a great dog, but I think he wil be a ok hunting dog at the very least. I plan on keeping...

hoosier

I've never looked at his testicles. Never gave it a thought that he might not have two. This is a tough decision.

hoosier

I talked to the breeder and he said I could bring him back for the other male or female he kept for himself. I have talked to a few of my local friends and they say they have seen them come down it just takes 5-8 months before it happens. They all agreed if it doesn't happen by 8 months it won't. So...

hoosier

Just left the vet and he informed me my 4 month old EP only has 1 testicle. I've had him for about 4 weeks now. What should I expect from the breeder?

I would like either a refund or another pup.

hoosier

Rick

What do you feed during season?

Purina One is more expensive than exceed if you don't play the rebate games available. With Purnia's rebate, and the pet store rebates it is accually a little cheaper per pound than exceed. Plus as Rick stated you can find it any where.

hoosier

I fed Exceed for years then switched to Purina because they support trials. Then Purina switched there formula and I went back to Exceed. Now I can't get Exceed so I'm back with Purina, but I am feeding the Purina One Lamb and Rice. The switch was easy for the dogs and stools stayed the same. I woul...

I picked my pup up Wed. He is out of Mac (CopperxDamascus daughter)xSue (9xGeary's Sunny Boyx10xGriffins Free Spirit). Mac is a 3xNSTRA Ch. and Sue is a 5xNSTRA Ch. soon to be 6x. Will see how he turns out.

hoosier

I always fed my pups the same food the older dog get. Just seeing what different opinion are out there.

hoosier

I'm excited about this pup. Driving to KY Wed. to pick it up. Jim has been great about answering all my questions. The most important part is I believe he has told me the truth not just want I want to hear to sell a pup. Not 100% if I am taking a male or female, but believe I am taking the male on t...

Thanks for the replies. I am leaning more towards litter one.
