Nevermind, Got my answer. Took a bit of looking thru old post but found something on it.

Brittlver

Anyone use this brand of dog food? Is it any good for the dog?

Brittlver

I need a count on how many pigeons will be coming so I can get additional birds if needed so everyone can go home with as many as they would like. Ezzy Just like Ezzy stated, please let us know if you need pigeons. I will be needing a count so I can let my supplier know how many I will need. The co...

Keeping the updates coming. Looks like someone backed out. 26 days and counting. Looking forward to meeting up with all you again. Was a blast last time. Promise I will stay a bit longer and annoy all you some more. UPDATE: Coming Brittlver Gittrdonebritts Ezzy Jonesy C. Painter Onk Possibly Coming ...

Brittlver

I am hoping that the nearest neighbor will be a long way away. I hate neighbors especially about the story in SD.

Brittlver

I think the most important thing to start with would be the right property. I would want to have enough acreage to have good sized fenced in run/exercise area. I would then also want to have some land I could manage for actual live bird training. Maybe get yourself registered as a game preserve and...

Brittlver

What are some must have tools to have, IE launchers(what kind), CC, Pinch collars, Ecollars that kind of thing. Anything else you think would be nice to have, must have, do not need. Looking for items outside of ground, fences, buildings.

Brittlver

Thanks for the help. Those comments helped a lot. Your right about the visiting kennels. I think this fall I will start traveling and visiting as many as I can. Lord knows I have the time. Hopefully I can get the local trainer to let me sit in with him every now and then and help out. I know he's be...

Brittlver

True, I am hopefully smart enough to know that this is no where near ankle deep. Just talking to a few people who do this I am pretty sure even if I learn alot and go slowly I will still trip and fall and land face first in a pile of you know what. But hopefully hearing all your thoughts and Ideas I...

Brittlver

Before this gets to out of hand I should restate that I DO NOT plan on doing this for another couple years. First I have to get a home and some land. :D I am just trying to learn as much as I can about running a kennel. Breeding and Training would then follow down the road. If things do not pan out ...

Brittlver

Don't worry about it. Hearing about the dog and the goat made up for it :lol: Any ideas on kennel designs. I have been trying to find pictures of ones I like but it is hard to find. I like Vmans kennels and a few others. but still nothing quite the way I have if pictured in my head. I am hoping to b...

Brittlver

Anybody want to throw out some Do or Do nots. Any ideas on a kennel set up. I would ultimately like to have pole building(30X60 or something big like this), Office, Room with 5-10 kennels. Would like the kennels to be covered on cement with drainage. Inside I would like to have lips in each kennel (...

Brittlver

Thanks for the help so far. Once I get things going I plan on OFA all dogs, any dogs that have a health problem I would either replace with a new puppy out of the next upcoming litter or reimburse partial payment/full payment. As for any dog that does have a health problem, I defiantly would not bre...

Brittlver

What do you have to do to register it to AKC. I thought I saw you have to have a couple litters that proved before you can officially register with them. I may be wrong on this.

Brittlver

Hello Everyone, I am looking at possibly starting up a kennel and wanted to get some does and do not's. I am looking at breeding Brittany's as My Wife and I fell in love with them. This kennel would not be anything major maybe a litter once a year. Just something to do in my spare time. Hoping to go...

It's looking like a good turn out. Theres still time to get in on the action. Joe (Gittrdonebritts) will be raffling off a Male, Org and White Britt but that is just a bonus. This will be a blast and is nice to put a face to a name. Just let me know if you are thinking about making it or are plannin...

Brittlver

Very nice... Wanna train my dog..

Jesse

Brittlver

Yup put a reply in his post so hopefully we can get him and some other wisconsin folk to come down.

Brittlver

You guys should come to the training day in Dixon, IL. Would be nice to meet you guys. See "it's that time again" in the general area.

Brittlver

Come on people from Wisconsin, I know there are alot of you on here. Would be nice to get you all together as most of us are not that far from each other.

Ruth I would mind doing that at all, I would love to shoot a moose with a rifle but more so with my bow. Looking at doing something like that in the next year or two.

Jesse

I am all for stocking my freezer with free food, Bring as much as possible. Don't be shy about the amount either.

At least I am not going Bald. Lol. Kidding a side. I hope you get that job, you need something good to happen to you.

Brittlver

I would like to add that the price for the birds is going to be $2 a piece. Any tips are greatly appreciated. :lol: There are plenty of Hotels in the area and I am sure if you ask nicely Gittrdonebritts and Ezzy would be happy to kennel a few dogs. Keep the PM's coming.

Brittlver

I got some exciting news last night and thought I would share it with all you. Joe(Gittrdonebritts) called me to inform me that Jonesy will be in the area at the end of July and is willing to come grace us with his presence again. Now for anyone who doesn't know him, besides being a great guy, he k...

Brittlver

I sure hope you don't want to get out but if you do I am sure I can help take some of the items off your hands.

Jesse

Brittlver

So I am thinking about July 23rd/24th at Ezzy's place again. It seems that he is kind of central to all of us. What do you guys think? Don't know if we can get Jonesy to come again and grace us with his wonderful wisdom but we can hope. If anyone has any other ideas of dates or times please throw th...

Brittlver

I am thinking we go back down by Ezzy and Joe as Ezzy has some land he said we could use for training. Not much around here so Madison is out.

Jesse

Brittlver

Alright everyone it's that time again. Looking to get another training/get together day going. Anybody want to throw out some dates, times and locations. I am thinking about sometime in July so that Ezzy can get better and come play with us. Lets see what everyone comes up with and I will try to get...

Thanks Rob for the advise, I will try my hardest to be there this weekend. One of the head guys for the chapter, Sorry forgot his name, told me something about bringing her out for some judges to practice on. I forgot what day that was but that sounded interesting. Maybe next month when you guys hav...

Brittlver

Thanks guys, This summer I plan on swimming with her to help her get over being in deep water. She will go in until she has to swim then turn around and come back. I agree with the other things, just didn't know if anything special you could do to up her chances on getting a prize 1. I am thinking a...

I am thinking about running Molly my 8 month old Brit in a NAVHDA NA test in Aug/Sept. I was wondering if anyone has any helpful tips to get her ready for it, so she can do the best she can. She has a strong desire to search and point, tracks pretty well, Little afraid of water but will be working o...

I've seen people use plastic totes. They had one that fit 2 of the perfectly with no moving around.

Jesse

Brittlver

The best boats Ive seen are the Stealth 2000 boats that Gander Mountain and many others sell. You can put alont of acc. on them along with a trolling motor and blind. Plus they do not tip easy. Thinking about getting one this fall. You can also put nice comfortable seats in them. http://www.mackspw....

Brittlver

Very beautiful pups, Really like the last male.

Brittlver

Ya I just cut my hair real short. Like not having to pay to have my hair cut. Plus my shampoo lasts forever. Joe you just need to start wearing a hat and no one will ever know.

Brittlver

Well Joe I got you beat, I am 28 and now starting to get grey hair. I would rather have a bald head then grey hair.

Brittlver

Glad everything went good, Hope you can get up and going soon. I'm sure your dogs are missing you playing with them.

Jesse

Brittlver

Thanks guys, I will get her into the vet as soon as possible. Hopefully she is just in heat. That way this will be over before summer hits here. Don't want to have to worry about it if we take her anywhere with us.

Brittlver

I have a going on 7.5 month old Brit that over the last week is peeing all over the place. Kennel, House and outside. She is whining all the time and her Vulva looks a bit swollen but I am not sure as this is my first ever female. I haven't found any blood but it just started to get worse over the l...

Brittlver

Thanks, She is a great dog and I have high hopes for her. Still not sure if I want to try and trail her. Guess I should start really ...

Brittlver

Things defiantly have changed over the years. I wish people swap places with each other Old to New and New to Old. It would really would be an eye opener.

Brittlver

That is true, this guy brought like a mile off the road. We went over the hill thru the woods....even crossed a stream. I wouldve been lost for sure. Just hope you can make to the fall Ezzy. :lol: I seen some older people that really need to be off the road. Was on a hwy one day and pass some old la...

Brittlver

I know some states require once you reach a certain age that your Dr. give you the ok and Optimologist pass you as well otherwise you lose your DL. You have to go in for these tests every 2 years. I think this is smart as it allows the ones that are still in good health to keep driving and the ones ...
