Gun Dog Forum

I'm from Kentucky. Kind of shooting for foot trials but mostly hunting quail. Don't even have a horse. She's not but 5 months old but I don't believe she's gonna be a horse trial dog. Her range is not that wide at least for now. She does hold her birds and is good around the gun. She is getting more...

I appreciate everyone's replies. I'm not really looking for critiquing of her bloodline but I'm sure that might happen. Just looking for some input on some of the big names and what type of trials they may have competed in such as horse or foot type trials. She is already proving her blood in the fi...

I'm new to the GSP breed and have acquired my first pup. Could someone look over her pedigree and let me know what they think?

Honestly aside from the socialization with other dogs I don't know why I'm going. She already sits unti...

Thank you all for the tips. We have been working on obedience at the house like sit, lay down and place. She's doing pretty good so far. I have an 8 week obedience class with a local lady with akc agility titles. It starts on the 27th. Really enjoy having her in the house with us as a family. I've s...

Hey everyone! I am new to theGSP breed and could use sombre help. I always had setters and they were outside dogs but now have a gsp and she's inside. She's pretty good in the house most times. She's 14 weeks old now. She is crated during the day unless we're home. Then exercise and training in the ...
