Is that black dog a weim/lab mix? For some reason I think I remember you mentioning that at some point...nice pictures!

I would have bought my launchers sooner. I don't see how anyone (who lives in an area without a large wild bird population) trains without them! My shorthair caught way too many pen raised quail when she was young. Once I got the launchers, they turned her from a catcher to a pointer in a matter of ...

If the dog doesnt point with his tail and head up to look like a painting every time thats ok, fooling with his "style" isnt going to give him any. :D He got all the style he will ever have from his dam and sire. Sorry, its a pet peave of mine. :oops: : Calm down now, you know how us pointer people...

Lately I noticed what looked like my male peeing on my female while she was peeing first thing in the morning. Well today she did her business 10 feet from the back door and I was able to confirm that yes indeed she is getting peed on! So, how can I put an end to this? The obvious answer is to let t...

He is full of Bull. Some dogs are more timid than others. Some require more correction than others. My dog requires a stronger correction sometimes than my friends. Many times all he has to do is call her name in a sharp short tone and her behavior is corrected. My 2 are polar opposites in that res...

The site looks great, but I noticed one thing...one of the "tags" says "hourseback." I'm assuming that is suppossed to be "horseback" unless I'm missing something

Not trying to split hairs here, just thought you may want to fix it!(can you tell my mom is a school teacher :roll: )

One of my Dad's friends has 2 pups from them. They should be about a year old now. I haven't SEEN them since they were a few months old. I went over to his house and he was letting them chase ducks around in his pond, they sure weren't scared of the water to be little guys. I've talked with him sinc...

As far as color goes.......I emailed the guy who made the lauchers a few weeks back about the white color concern. He said that was just the prototype and the real one will be this color (this is the picture he emailed me).........

First and foremost the dog is too young for more than 5 minutes a few days a week purely to get him to somewhat the concept of roading. Second, I think this type of roading is about as dangerous for you and the dog as anything could be. Dog sees a cat, he hauls rear dead left, pulls you in front of...

I recently discovered the Springer Attachment and decided to give it a try. My plan was to run both my dogs off of my bike because I can't run far enough to tire them out and the backyard just isn't going to cut it. So, I finally got the attachment in and used it twice this week. I only have one of ...

Matt, I'm running my classically NAVHDA ALL AGE bred Pointer pup from my Guard Rail daughter x Ch. Rock Acre Blackhawk!! His call name is Jack, after his Granddad Guard Rail. I'm predicting this will be the breeding of choice for all future NAVHDA aficionados. What do you think??? :lol: :lol: :lol:...

I use to be into deer hunting pretty big back in middle school and high school. It is very annoying to have a dog(s) come running through your corn pile. I never even came close to shooting a dog, I've always liked them too much.... But once, I got out of my stand and got hold of one. I proceeded to...

This is a very interesting thread! Being a dental student, all I can say is I'm glad we don't "cull" every human being with a less than perfect bite!

Thats awesome. I want to say I've seen her on a DVD my dad has. Something where 3 cowboys/girls get 3 unbroke horses and see who can break them the fastest. Pretty crazy, guys whipping out chainsaws and stuff to desensitize them to loud noises.

I've ordered a lot of stuff from them. They have good prices and really fast shipping in my opinion. Highly recommend them!
