Ron, this link should answer most questions.

Hutch..........As you know...Phoenix is the worst place to try to bring a dog along. Not sure when you left, but now we drive an hour to get to desert scrub land just to run dogs. All the training areas in the past have houses on them now. There are several guys and gals here who make the ultimate s...

LSKGSPs

Grant.............What you are doing is working. Don't add to yourwork load.
We have one of the best boards on the web. I think "we" (the board members) can handle the "jerks" on our own.

Thanks for the work you do. Don't worry about censoring.

A computer help section would be great. The only caveat would be to limit the scope to tech issues with the site. Rule out issues like..."now that microsoft no longer supports 98 or Me, how do I protect against pop ups and virus?

LSKGSPs

Just a thought............play along and respond. Lead them on and on. Keep printing out the exchanges. Then when the "bite" for a check arrives.....send it (and cancel payment with bank right away).....let the check be processed....get bank records on check and turn the whole package over to your C...

LSKGSPs

Four hundred and fifty dogs!!!!!!!!!! And what happens to the ones that are not sold????? The whole concept is disgusting and lends leverage to the forces who would limit our breeding rights, by referring to this travestry...........But I ask this question: How do we stop this and still not allow ou...

LSKGSPs

Welcome to every day life in Arizona........My backyard reading today was 117.......HOTTER TOMORROW. Not only can dogs not be worked....they can't even be trusted to use doggie doors to come in. (At least I will not go that far)....Mine are kept inside. The GSP community lost a really great member h...

LSKGSPs

Nice set-up...thanks for pics.

LSKGSPs

Any chance you guys could post a photo or two of these set ups. Thanks.

LSKGSPs

A wise man, indeed. Hehehe.

LSKGSPs

Just a couple thoughts: A dog is always learning, but owners are not always teaching. Big Mistake: Giving a command you can't enforce. Big Mistake: Using an e-collar before the dog responds on the CC without a tug. The e-collar is an extension of the CC. Before the e-collar should be used training c...

LSKGSPs

Hi Flannelberry.........Welcome. What part of the country do you live in? In reading through the responses and counter responses, I can say that you have been given a lot to think about and you have presented a lot that concerns you. The difficulty you will encounter is that for each breed discussed...

LSKGSPs

Steven, in regards to the horse tack you saw. Originally Mary began the business making horse tack with Permatack. Then working in conjunction with Jon and Cindy at Perfection she developed the line of dog equipment. And shootist, you are right on......Mary is terrific to work with and will go out o...

LSKGSPs

Vince....Just something you might want to keep in mind in situations like that, especially at a young age. At that age he brings it back to you as a "trophy" of sorts. He might even do a little "parade" with it before getting back to you. It sometimes is better to not take the bird from your pup. Le...

LSKGSPs

You make it sound all so simple.....fixing bugs etc. That's where I went off course. I tried to delete the whole page completely. Ended up deleting parts but not the page itself.

LSKGSPs

OKIDOKIE........I'll go ahead and create an album and work from there.
Thanks for the help.......

LSKGSPs

OK.........got it. In regards to adding photos. Do I just use the "add image" button? Will they upload from my computer or do they need to be on the site photo page first? Size? Do photos have to be resized or is it automatic? Sorry to use so much time, but unless you do it a lot the process of gett...

LSKGSPs

Seems like the defaults are back, but am having trouble getting to the edit functions. Hold on a bit, I'll retry.

LSKGSPs

Grant......FABULOUS. I sent you an email, but looks like you got your hands full. Somehow I managed to delete some default settings from the page #894. I thought I could figure it out, but all I am doing is running up the number of hits trying to fix it. Can you just delete the entire page so I can ...

LSKGSPs

Caleb.......Every once in a great while a photograph says more than any number of words could ever express. The photo of you and Gur is one of those. Each of us honestly feel your loss. Reflect on the joy you two shared. Make sure you take your shotgun to the other side, because she will be waiting ...

LSKGSPs

I slid the clipboard and papers back down the counter top towards her, dern if it didn't drop to the floor and spread the papers around...and simply said "Not here." At that point the Vet came out with a tray of vials, needles etc and we headed out to the truck to do the shots. While out there he to...

LSKGSPs

This type of legislation is insidiously coming to your State on the wings of PETA and HSUS (Humane Society of the United States). Yesterday, I was in my Vets office getting shots for 3 Huskies and 3 cats. Coordinating these shots at curbside rather than bringing them in to the office took a while to...

Brenda....check your PMs

LSKGSPs

Lara....Congratulations. Check your PMs in a little while.

LSKGSPs

Hi Lara....Congratulations with Fritz. Did you by chance also handle "Karl?"

LSKGSPs

Ryan.. Yep.

Great Shots, Great Dogs.

LSKGSPs

Did ja ever notice a GSP never closes its eyes completely when you are around? A GSP is always watching. Amazing.

I've seen it here for years, but your photos "say" the same.

LSKGSPs

Good thoughts Brends. Thanks. Now let me see if I got it right. You put the dog on the table, hook it up, handler does one spin around on left foot. If dog jumps off table, snaps bar, draws blood from handler and stands on ground in a perfect "stop to flush" the dog is ready!!!....Hehehe...I could n...

LSKGSPs

That is fabulous news. And well deserved.

LSKGSPs

Always an interesting topic as there are so many really valid viewpoints. I'll get to my real interest in a sec. but first some thumbnails of my humble opinions: 1. Not all dogs need to be FF. Not all owners need to FF their dogs All dogs need to be FF. All owners should FF their dogs. LOL...that's ...

LSKGSPs

Good point, and I might ask them what they would give me on a trade in. But I also have some friends that still try to use their Innoteks and end up needing a loaner because of malfunctions or leave either the receiver or transmitter home or whatever. So it's nice in those situations to have an extr...

LSKGSPs

While I will get the G-2 (500), I won't give up my Pro 500 as a trade in. They mentioned that the other day. But having a solid reliable back up system is a comforting feeling.

LSKGSPs

Jobird..............You have got the "picture" perfectly. I tried very carefully to pick my words in my last post. I did not want to offend any readers nor unduly alarm you about the significantly different approaches there are to FF training. Clearly, you already understood everything I was trying ...

LSKGSPs

OK.....thanks. The Wildlife Materials receiver works in just the opposite way. On point=long spaced sold tones. Moving= faster/shorter spaced tones. The problem I have had is differentiating when the dog is moving slowly or stopped. That plus the fact that the receiver is much more bulky than the Tr...

LSKGSPs

John........when you say: " I discovered that the Tracker locater works really well that way. The collar transmits a point tone to the receiver, and I know immediately when the dog has gone on point. " Are you talking about the motion sensor feature? And is that an audible tone? If so..is it a stead...

LSKGSPs

Just a couple thoughts. How much do you know about the trainer's methods? Have you watched him doing any FF training? Have you seen any dogs retreive that this trainer has FF trained? Will you be able to spend some time with the trainer during the process? Here are the reasons that it may be importa...

LSKGSPs

Grant did a lot of work to get these Avatars back up on line........Your pup looks a hard charger.

Grant......thanks again for the time you devote to this board.

Will it digest with which? Your husband or the dog? (I couldn't resist). All kidding aside it will likely pass through, however watch the stools carefully for regularity, consistancy and for portions of the beard. If you notice any change particularly in volume or regularity over the next say 24 to ...

LSKGSPs

Grant...........It's working.

A lot of work...........A lot of "Thanks."

LSK

LSKGSPs

Northern Hunting Mom.............Well reasoned and written. Probably the reason Cindy allowed you to be a companion to one of her pups is that she intuitively understood your appreciation for the value of the dog's needs. As I have stated so many times in this thread.........It is not important that...

LSKGSPs

Hi Colleen............

Please check your mail box on the site......

I sent you a note earlier. If it is not there or you have
not been able to open it...let me know on the board.

LSKGSPs

12Volt..........Great shots!

If you have a moment could you describe the camera/lense etc that you used to get them. Thanks

LSKGSPs

Mav....I can't remember now which board I saw the photos of you and your Brit on......But, I did (seems like she was on a table, you were standing behind her and there was a lady to your right)....You have a real "Keeper." Nice job with that little girl. As far as your "contract" is concerened. I'm ...

LSKGSPs

"Ezzy".............Thank you for taking the time for your lengthy response. If you were not a member of your school debate team, they (the team) missed a golden opportunity to go to the Regional Finals every year. "Ezzy"...........your position on these issues places the other view (mine) in the dif...

LSKGSPs

Bruce......you have a "Kings Ransom" in your wife and dogs. You are a fortunate man..............Congratulations and Huge Kudos to Your Wife and Dogs.....................LSK

LSKGSPs

Unfortunately while typing that last post (about contract issues with pups) I said (to myself) there are going to be people who completely miss the real message trying to be conveyed. I should have stopped and found a way to express it better. I appreciate your disagreement Ezzy, but to clarify a bi...

LSKGSPs

Brenda, I could not agree more. Even to the point of considering making a provision in any contract for sale of a pup, a clause that requires the buyer to send the dog to one of a specific list of trainers for field training. Now hold on Board, let me explain. There certainly are many situations whe...

LSKGSPs

BUT, how, when you sell a pup be sure that person won`t change their mind when they see the activity level of their 'pet" thats bred for hi energy to be an all day hunter? This dog in my kennel (boarding) owner bought a shock collar to keep him from eating yd plants. That's exactly what I was refer...

LSKGSPs

Brenda, you hit my nail right on the head. My "nail" being the decision to breed my bitch or not. I know the dog/s that I want to sire the litter. Geographics will decide which when the time is here. But, and that is a huge BUT......Do I risk the life of a great GSP bitch because I want a pup or two...
