Does anyone have the results from the Vhampions trial?

kylenicholas02

Brought home this little (runt) girl two weeks ago Friday. She is working out fabulous for us. Initially purchased for my fiancee to trial, she has since resorted to becoming attached to my hip and now has a spot under my desk during the day... She is grand daughter to Rawhide Clown on the top, and ...

It's nice to hear from another Hoosier, especially one that lives so close. How you knew I was in the deck building biz amazes me.

Well, I guess I now know where to unload run-off dogs. I usually give them away, or let them run off. To me, the fellas that talk about the physical ability to run a 1/2 mile ahead, the mental capacity to use the wind, as long as they are hunting for you, and the best one, as long as they are liste...

How does Chopper handle? He was a handful when he was younger but has always been very biddable. He would be out of voice range and it would appear that he wasn't handling but once I whistle broke him he handled great. I'm not a huge fan of whistle breaking my dogs but sometimes it's necessary. I w...

:D I know, just givin' grief!! I wouldn't look far from home for a good dog for your area. Sheesh, while I'm throwing around advice, personally, for what you're interested in doing with your dogs, foot hunting the chukar/hun hills with one or two dogs, you'd be hard pressed to d Just tellin' ya' wh...

My experience with Rockacre dogs hasnt been prime to say the least. They seem to have a higher frequency of having "screws" loose. Everyone that I have been around has a sweet personality but, acts like an idiot in the field. Maybe its my training/trialing style but they seem different. I'm sticking...

kylenicholas02

That would be an breeding that I'd be interested in... For SURE

kylenicholas02

My reccomendation is rule 1. NEVER SET YOUR DOG UP TO FAIL. Don't put you dog into a situation that will do more harm than good. IE, (1)In a stressful/confusing situation with alot of people and other dogs if the dog is not used to that. (2)Alot of gunfire and excitement if the dog is not used to t...

kylenicholas02

some would think 6 dogs pointing all at once was great, others like myself would look at it like 5 of the six blew their backs...

kylenicholas02

Oh boy... You just opened a world into two very different "cults"... Then again, I'm a white-dog guy through and through

kylenicholas02

Scott,
Opinions of trialers has became limited on this forum. I'll email you a site where your opinion and input would be appreciated better. Some people don't understand that strong trial breeding betters the overall breed.

kylenicholas02

Excuse me, I was thinking of the Toyota Plant in Greensburg... Sorry

kylenicholas02

Actually it's 35 mins east... and what you haven't seen is all the news about all the illegal immigrants they have been hauling out of there after taxpayers have helped build the plant. Sorry if I have a bad taste in my mouth, but when you propose investments to the state that are turned down to fun...

Though not my first "gun" I purchased a Remington 1100 synthetic when I was 14. I shot my first birds with that gun, and carried it along on many hunting trips. I also won my first trial with that gun and carry it in almost everyone since. I have since purchased numerous other guns, but somehow they...

I named mine after the small town that was overtaken in a war a long time ago, and now sits deserted.

Thus Rocklane Kennels was born... A close friend has a kennel named Dancin' Dogs.. That I always liked

There is no reason for there to be any argument? Discussion is about exchanging ideas. Debating merits of something is a good thing. Debate helps us not to be stuck in a rut in our thinking or approach to something. Exchanging ideas on a subject can reinforce one's opinion or open "my eyes" to a be...

Go look at the "Look at this big rascal" thread (among others)...I believe it is proving the point of this original poster's observation. Exactly right, and like said several times in this thread, experienced dog trainers are becoming deterred from associating themselves with sites like this becaus...

kylenicholas02

Exactly comments like that... Which is why this is the first time I publicly said that and not directed toward a specific individual or his dog...

kylenicholas02

So with new GunDog boards coming about I continually find myself venturing further from liking this board as much as I once did... I think the posters need to think about what they are saying prior to click submit... I feel like there's a lot of critical comments scrutinizing people's training and d...

Due to unforeseen injuries to one of my shorthairs this weekend, I'm in the market for a started female pointer for this trial season. I've call several of my usual breeders with no luck, so I figured I would post on here and see what you guys knew about. I need a female ranging in age from one year...

I was under the same impression... Sorry swamped at work, trying to complete a deal... Photos posted after this weekends trial

kylenicholas02

Art,
Been to your site multiple times. You have some amazing shorthairs, but I dont need to tell you that.

Let me know when you have a breeding coming. The site says your thinking of breeding Vegas soon...

Kyle

kylenicholas02

I've never had this happen. Possibly because everyone uses multiple whistle blasts and this is just a short low "toot" but good point. Also might have something to do with the dog acknowledging I'm not actually around them to release. IDK, but so far so good.... We put plenty of W's up this year wit...

kylenicholas02

There is also Amo, IN. About 35 mins west of Indianapolis off 70. Probably 45 mins from Terre Haute. We have walking shoot to retrieve club trials, and are also the HOME TO NSTRA. We hold two National trials yearly and numerous regional trials. Let me know if you have more questions

kylenicholas02

I use a single whistle to release them. This works when enter field, any whoa situation, or unproductive.. And it looks cool in front of your friends

Videos will tell a person alot. I do not want this to feel as I am pointing fingers or trying to stir contraversy, I am not attempting or trying to do in way, shape, or form.

Whoa doesn't always require intense pressure on a dog.

This is my pup from Nathan Phillips. As of today, she is 5 months and 15 days. Whoa broke on a barrel, and a lot of repetitions... transferred to the e collar

NOTHING is important unless a dog can whoa....

kylenicholas02

Or you just whoa break the dog... I'll post a video sometime soon of a 6 month old I have right now, steady through shot... and I mean steady...

kylenicholas02

I will posted results Friday afternoon when I get back. Been too busy this week with work to even think about getting out there.

Might read the article in recent GunDog about the so called word "socialization"

I second Mark Payton... Used his force fetch video last year and had wonderful success.. Tell him I said thanks for the video!!

Where's the trial and do you have any information on it? I'm off that weekend and would like to go see some dogs run...

kylenicholas02

Also could you either post or email photos of your johnny houses? I'm going to be building some in the next few weeks.

kylenicholas02

Nice dog... Let me know if he needs a little cooler weather this summer and I'll run him in some NSTRA stuff this summer for you... Can't promise he won't be bred to my miller bitches...

When's the Indiana trial? I spoke with Nathan Phillips Sunday, and might try to make it if he decides to run.

kylenicholas02

22lbs or 16 lbs... with a dog market like this, spend a couple more dollars and get something you dont have to worry about health problems in the future... I hear theres some nice pointer pups hanging in the warm SC weather

kylenicholas02

I know I posted this in the wrong forum but was looking for a quick reply.

Does anyone know the final 4 and who won at the Quail Invitational this weekend in Lake Wales?

Thanks

kylenicholas02

Actually my fiancee purchased it for me... I have to get the cab and heat put on so she can stay warm while chasing the dogs with me

I think I got a keeper...

kylenicholas02

She's a female... But I have seen someone strap that collar as close as they could to the b@lls
