it might be easier to read if you make a perfect pedigree you can do that at http://www.perfectpedigree.com and if thats the litter you want a pup out of just pick the puppy you like the best. you cant tell witch one is going to be the best when there that young. just pic the male or female that you...

When I have guided in the past I always put a price on my dogs. I tell all involved that if they shoot my dog that is what the hunt will cost them. Usually 5k, you would be surprised how many guys will be more careful when and where they shoot! i will have to start telling our clients that. thankfu...

Why do you need all the info that a Garmin or other GPS unit provides WHILE you are working the dog? :roll: i don't know what kind of land you hunt topher but it sure makes it nice when you hunt a lot of crp when you can hardly see your dog most of the time. i guess you could do it two ways when yo...

i hunt with a few people that don't have a lot of experience so i'm always worried about my dog getting shot. i always try and put a vest on her and whoever i hunt with i make sure they know dont shot at low flying birds.

my training collar has been unprograming it self all the time. and i would like to have just one unit to mess with instead having to look at my garmin and shock collar. so i am thinking about buying the sport dog tek 1.0 training collar/tracking collar has any of you had one? would you suggest buyin...

i know i put this on here before but.

The bench (narrow board) and barrel begin to teach the dog to stand (whoa) and allow the trainer to work comfortably and have the dog get used to being styled and have hands laid on him while he's standing. The post is where the the whoa command is forced. SJ , this is just my opinion personally, b...

barrel will help with teaching the dog whoa and to be steady to wing and shot and stand walking birds.

sjkennels

do you have any front and back pictures? if you do i would like to see them that looks alot better then mine

sjkennels

nope gun dog bred i have no idea who is in her pedigree never sent in her papers. i know her dam was a sh. but everybody that i have hunted with her has always commented on her.

sjkennels

yea i am going to FF her after i get her broke. i am planning on getting her a MH title and she is the only gsp that i have ever seen that doesn't retrieve naturally

sjkennels

ahh ok next time i have her up and working with her i will take another pic i just threw her up there to make sure it wouldn't fall apart or something stupid would happen to it. i will have one up friday or saturday for ya

i whoa broke my short hair using the ps/pf method that uses only a cc and choke chain. i will need the barrel for training to steady to wing and shot no matter what. and yea i checked and made sure she can touch the ground with out killing herself. The picture wouldn't enlarge for me, so I couldn't...

i am going to try the ferrel miller common sense bird dog training dvd and it says that it uses all three. i got my whoa barrel done a little while ago not the best in the world but the total cost of everything was 4.50 and thats what the barrel cost me i had all the extra wood nails.

Why would you even want to register it? If you are SERIOUS about competing with a dog that should be registered then cutting corners on breeding sure isnt going to get you into the game any faster. i dont wanna register it i dont even have the dog i was talking to a guy that had a add on swap shop ...

thats what i was thinking thanks for the answers You're welcome. I hope she finds a good home. If she's a good little hunting companion, it doesn't matter what she is. Well, spayed maybe matters. :) yea i hope she finds a good home. but if anyone around here wants her i can give you the contact inf...

i know there was one guy trying to get them to become recognized as a breed and he had to produce like 6 or so generations to get i guess akc to recognize them the guy advertised this female as a 3 year old registered short hair but when i called he told me it was actually a registered shortney. so ...

sjkennels

i was talking to a guy about one of his dogs that he is giving away (short hair x britney mix) and he said that it was registered but his wife lost the papers a couple years ago so can you register one? to my knowledge you cant i thought it had to be full blooded. thanks for the help.

sjkennels

ferrel miller common sense bird dog training dvd any good? does it show you how to do everything in steps and does it use pups or already broke dogs? what other good training dvds are there that shows how to do stuff in steps and that actually use the pups and not broke dogs? thanks in advance for y...

sjkennels

In these trials (puppy, derby, gundog), are the dogs required to be broke steady to wing, shot, fall, and then retreive if required? Coveyrise64 Puppy Puppies should have and display the natural abilities that can be developed to make a good hunting or field trial dog. These abilities would include...

sjkennels

What holds me back from participating? The few walking trials I've been to have been "unfriendly" to newbies. Nobody offers to help you out in understanding what's going on. You don't know who to talk to, who to ask questions of.... etc. To combat this, I'd suggest that IF you really wanted newbies...

i know i have talked to topher a couple of times and he has tryied a couple of times to get me to come and try the trials out the reason i have been on the fence about it here is a couple reasons the rules i understand them up to a point but not fully losing i am a sore loser i hate losing pissing p...

i cannot make up mind if i should send my dog to the trainers to get her finished up or to do it myself. i kinda want to send her to the trainers so it will be done right. and not take 5 months but will my dog respond to me like it will to the trainer since he is the one that trained it? i have done...

This is what gets me and the dogs around, 2005 Tundra Double Cab. Used for daily commutes and hunting, run it into the ground and then buy something else.

sjkennels

They already got it won

sjkennels

if i dont have to work i will head over there.

sjkennels

I think you should send her to me for the next couple of years and I'll work with her...after that I would say enough is enough... :P In reality, no, she is not to old. Sounds like you could finish her; however, a pro may be able to do it quicker so you could enjoy her more. there's one little prob...

sjkennels

yea i am planning on going to a akc and nstra trial before i send her off or try and do it myself. i am running her in a AF trial on the 21st in the gun dog stakes that topher is putting on. if she runs big enough i might just stick with that but i doubt she will just if i could run her off of my 4 ...
