Grass to plant

I have an open field of about 5 acres that I want to plant into grass for training dogs. I want it to be about knee high or so. What kind of grass should I plant and where is a good place to buy seed?

Re: Keeping bird dogs inside?

Lots of people keep hunting dogs outside. They don't have to be inside to be cared for. Just not sure if "winning" should be the measuring factor, but I guess it would be a reward for them for doing great at the trial. You going to do Hunt Tests with the new pup UltraCarry? Are you still breeding Ki...

Re: Price of pups to turn a profit?

I was just wondering. Some people don't do health clearances because they believe their dog is healthy and it is too much money. The health clearances do cut into your profit for your litter, but I feel it is essential for good breeding practices.
