Congratulations!

I saw the same thing with my Sonny pup. She was solid on her points at 4 months of age.

Congratulations!!!!

If the local SAMs Club still sold it, I would have probably stayed with it. I found it to be a very good dog food.

Carolina Gundogs

That is great news!
I would have my shotgun and shells ready when the season comes in. Once he figured out that you shoot the birds for him, you will be set.

I highly recommend Mauruce Lindleys book, Training with Mo. It is reasonably priced and you will not be sorry you purchased it.

Carolina Gundogs

I had forgotten a about it! Thanks for bringing it up.

Carolina Gundogs

Great job!

Carolina Gundogs

I'm sorry for your loss.

Whether a person likes, dislikes, agrees or disagrees with a judge at a HT (or field trial), I believe they are owed a certain amount of respect for what they have volunteered to put themselves through. I can say that I have ended up very good friends with judges who at sometime or another failed a ...

I would say whoever it will benefit at any given time will claim the success. The female's owner will claim the success with the next litter and the stud owner will claim the success anytime a good dog develops from the litters he has sired.

Carolina Gundogs

Congratulations to your friend!

Tooling, if you look at the pedigrees for the dogs titling in whatever venue you are interested in, you might be able to draw your own conclusions.
Are you in search of a specific characteristic In a GSP?

Good luck in your search.

Congratulations!

The last time I was over at Kyle and Ben's place, Kyle showed me a male out of Martha's (owner of Piney Run Art and Puney Run kennels), dogs that they had run in only one trial and the dog qualified to run in the Nationals from the one trial. Kyle really liked this dog. I believe Martha may have a g...

I have a friend who used pavers for six kennel runs and liked them well enough to never change. I believe he has had them in place for ~ 10 years now. He just leveled the ground and placed the pavers tight fit.

Carolina Gundogs

I highly recommend the book Training with Mo. It a Mo's version of the West mwthod. Mo is on this forum as well. Also, you can get additional support for this method on the pointingdogs yahoo discussion group. I find the discussion group very informative and interesting. I am currently steadying 3 d...

Now hold on a minute, I do not want to run up on a wolf while training bird dogs down here in SC. I do not believe my snake skin boots ad blank pistol will offer much protection against a wolf.

This has to be one of the most hilarious posts ever.

I hear a fellow named Andy Cooper is heading up that program

Carolina Gundogs

Bill T, I truly enjoy reading your posts.

Carolina Gundogs

Bill T and 4dabirds, great posts.
I believe their can also be different objectives sought or at least prioritized when comparing field trials or testing between various countries. With the few UK events I have watched, I got the impression of this. However, I could be wrong.

Carolina Gundogs

I hope not to derail this thread but I really do not believe you will find an alternative as successful as good retriever training (FFing). I have been around many professional guides and guided through the years myself at various places, ran in hunt tests and a few trials. Many guides do not FF as ...

That is great! He must be a very nice dog

Markj, there were some very strong posts on this litter when they whelped.
This is not a German thing.

Carolina Gundogs

Munster, that is awesome!

Carolina Gundogs

I dont Believe anyone has intended to offend you with their posts. However, you must realize your idea is a little far fetched. People go to great extremes and sacrifices to prove their dogs are worthy. I know people who slept in their cars in freezing weather waiting for a trial to start the next m...

I purchased the 6 dog Stainless chain gang 2 or3 years ago and love it. I never have that many dogs on it but it is nice to have the option. I don't plan in spending any more money on tie outs or chain gangs for the rest of my life.

Carolina Gundogs

Wow! You guys make dog training sound so hard. It's really a lot simpler than all that. Too many gadgets and gimmicks. All you really need is a pinch collar, a check cord and a e collar. Course I'm a Dave Walker guy. 8) Doug My journey to learning how to train my first pointer pup has brought me fu...

Carolina Gundogs

Coop, you got any pictures of any pointers crossed with foxhounds?

Carolina Gundogs

Nice!

Carolina Gundogs

I am not sure you will ever hear many professionals bash other professionals. Most have too much class for that and let their dog work speak for them.

Carolina Gundogs

Most people, who only hunt, do very little actual training from my experience or at least where I am located. If the dog will point a bird and wait for the gunner to get close enough to shoot, they're considered a winner. If the dog brings back the bird, that's impressive. The field trials and vario...

I can only imagine the crosses made by many of the great breeders in the past before DNA was put in place. I heard from a friend of Wehles once that if all knew what all he tried in effort to improve the breed, it would not be accepted by most today. Way before Wehle's time, Several of the great EPs...

+1 for gunbroker.com. I purchased my SKB 280 SxS from that site as well.

The Sandhills Pointing Breed Club would be a good place to consider contacting:

Another good club to consider is the Carolina chapter NAVHDA club:

I have tried many different popular feeds through the last 8 years and I have as good or even possibly the best results ever with what I currently feed, Sportmix Premium. This is one of the lesser expensive feeds I have tried as well.

Carolina Gundogs

Great to have you on the forum. Good luck with your dog/puppy search.
Is there any particular reason you still want a lab in addition to a GSP other than you love the breed?

Carolina Gundogs

If memory serves me correctly, Brad uses and offers the same collar that Maurice Lindley and Martha Greenlee use and offer. I really like this pinch collar.

Carolina Gundogs

There are two sides to every story. Sounds to me like you failed to provide the carrier with a servicable address. If they had to go to the post office to get the address then your trainer must not be answering his phone. GDX does a great job of handling all kinds of problems while in transit. I, f...

This is a descent read about the GSP's history and coloring:

Carolina Gundogs

I believe I read where the Germans would drown the white GSPs as pups as they considered it a flaw.

Carolina Gundogs

Nice!

I have read articles that Lewistown, Montana was the top pick for wild upland bird bird hunting.

Carolina Gundogs

I will mention my packing slip showed that mine was bought through GDS but drop shipped from LCS. I believe that is how it usually works or did when I bought mine.

Carolina Gundogs

On my Tritronics transmitters, a Field 90 and a Classic 70 and both fairly new, both are not high enough for me to feel on the lowest setting, 1, but on a 2, I feel it strongly. However, I have a couple of pups that feel it on a 1 and it works well for them. There is a big jump in stimulation from n...

Carolina Gundogs

There is so much variety offered in the O/U market, until I believe you first need to determine what your needs are and then determine the amount of money you are willing to spend and go from there. After that, i would recommend going to places where the potential guns are available and hold them to...

Carolina Gundogs

Tax is lookin good!
I need to get busy with the same training.
Good Luck!

Carolina Gundogs

I purchased a quail recall from Lenny. I believe I remember him saying he had accepted a job offer. I understood him to say he only planned to train and run his own dogs going forward.
