Gun Dog Forum

The ones I bought were from Kroger and they were the Archway Coconut Macaroons.

I just wanted to let you guys know that the coconut macaroons did the job. Not proven through a scientific study, but the field test on one subject was impressive. Hunted the dog the first day in Kansas without the macaroons and the excessive bowel movements were as usual for this dog. He has had th...

Thanks guys. I appreicate your help.

I have a pointer that has an excessive number of bowel movements while hunting. It gets to the point that nothing is coming out but he will continue to stop and try. I was just wondering if anyone has had a dog like this and were you able to do anything to help with the situation?

Has anyone shot one of these? If so what gauge and what did you think?

Thanks to all. I appreciate your help and advice.

Once had a pointer female that climbed out of chain link kennel before I could get the gate fastened. After many attempts at stopping her, I finally strung an electric fence around top of kennel and never had a problem again. Just be careful when entering the kennel as it will break you from enterin...

I have year old pup that I am breaking to hold point. I have her on a cc and working her into the bird until she points. The problem I have is that I am using dizzied pigeons hidden in the grass and it seems that the dog has to get a lot closer (right on top) to the bird than dogs in the past that I...

Boy,I have been on both ends of the wiseman and fool post.

The dam of the pup is a daughter of Gunsmoke’s Wrangler x Pinehill Damascus Abby.

The sire of the pup is a son of Elhew Damascus x Pinehill Rambling Nell.

Big Dave What I really am looking for is: Did they hunt hard. Were they hard to train or hard headed Did they have style or just point Were they long range or decent range for foot hunter (check back at least once a day). Could they find birds or did they always “back” or Not Did they mind fairly we...

Thanks for your advice. I am just an old foot hunter and thought someone on this site had probably seen some of this blood or knew something about it. I was just trying to get info before I started to work with this pup. Since I am not into trialling I would not feel right calling someone and asking...

I bought a pup that has Gunsmoke breeding on the dam side. Can anyone tell me the traits (good and bad) of the Gunsmoke breeding. I would also like to know what lines they crossed with best. The sire of my pups dam is a dog called Gunsmokes Wrangler so if anyone knows anything about him I would appr...

Can't someone give me a little advice. This little rascal is driving me nuts with that shrill little yap. I don't want to buy a bark collar if they don't work or screw up the dog. Maybe there is a better solution. Help.

I have a 6 mo old pointer pup that barks in the kennel quite a bit. What has been you guys experience with using a bark collar. How old should pup be before you use one and what is the best way to do it?

gonehutin' nailed it dead on. Especially the wireing.

Thanks to all who responded.

When do you guys use the e-collar around the belly of a dog.
