Definitely the Rem 870LW 20 that I got for Christmas in 1988. I have shot a lot of stuff with that shotgun. I did just pick up a nice little Miroku made Charles Daly 20 with 26” barrels and a Browning model 12 28 gauge that I am really looking forward to carrying this fall. Maybe one them will take ...

I thought a lot about that; the time and patience factor, but I have been waiting 17 years to get another pair of bird dogs, so yeah I’m ready. Or so I think!

I will be glad to report on their similarities and differences.

Meet Tilly. 10 month old female GWP. We got her from a gentleman in PA that, unfortunately, due to his health could no longer take care of her. Brought her to Michigan last Saturday to join my male shorthair, Dax, that is 9 months old. What fun it has been working with both of these great dogs over ...

Not sure why I am considering this (I have a 6 month shorthair that is coming along nicely), but I have an opportunity to get a 18 month old male shorthair that has not been hunted at all. Owner took ill and has not been able to do anything hunting related with him this fall. The dog has basic obedi...

Sounds like your pup is coming along nicely to me. I have a 5.5 month old GSP and he is just starting to put things together. We mostly grouse and woodcock hunt and just this past weekend I am finally starting to see him use his nose vs. just running the woods acting like a puppy. I have only shot 1...

It’s definitely a scam. DO NOT send him any money. He took me for $185. “Bought” a single collar from him. Fortunately I paid with PP and have filed a claim and will hopefully get my money back.

Shrhr,

Did you ever communicate with Mark on these collars? I responded to his other ad with the TT15 Mini collars and am starting to think these may not be legit?? Hope I am wrong.

Appreciate the reply’s. We tried a prong collar tonight and they do work. Went on a short walk and then let him off leash for a bit. Worked out really well. Looks like to me, the prong collar and leather pinch collars work pretty near identical. Prong collars just look a little more menacing to some...

4 momth old gsp and leash training has been brutal. I live in town, so he has to be leash trained. He pulls like a freight train and it is driving me crazy. Is he old enough for a pinch collar? Or any other trade secret to leash breaking a young and getting very independent bird dog.

Brought home a Shorthair and few weeks back and he is a big hit with the family. Looking forward to many years of good family/hunting memories with this fella. Dax is 3.5 months old, full of energy and ALL puppy right now. I am in MI and cannot wait to hit the grouse woods with him. If he points bir...
