There is really only one way to know if Kinetic dog food will work for you and that is to try it for a length of time. There are many good dog feeds out there and many opinionated people. This is what fuels all the different brands.

Carolina Gundogs

Wow, that is a great accomplishment! You should be proud of Katie!

Carolina Gundogs

Great stuff! I will give it to my old female the day before the big hunt and the day of the big hunt. It seems to make a big difference the day after the hunt!

Carolina Gundogs

You need to possibly locate a local pro trainer and talk with him about keeping your dog during the day. With the rate you are paying, you could have a pro training her full time,...
Most professionals will have kennels with concrete floors or at least wood.

So I took my 5 month old Brittany to my nearest NAVHDA training day this past Saturday. For background, my pup has never seen a pigeon or game bird before, other than a wing on a string. He points/chases tweety birds on walks. I am also brand new to upland hunting. Things I liked: -Everyone was ver...

Carolina Gundogs

Congratulations! That is great!

Carolina Gundogs

There are lots of ways to work on backing and honoring, those that take a lot of work really seem to not care for it at all. When I train, most of the time the basis of what I do is built off of stop to flush drills. (not always but explaining in brevity is not my strong suit) When I find a dog tha...

Beautiful!

Carolina Gundogs

CJ, thanks.

Carolina Gundogs

Scott, did you have any luck wit this? I read somewhere (although it could have been inaccurate) that Garmin did away with the Influential's Club.

I believe Maurice Lindley @ Lindley Kennels in Piedmont, SC offers training for spaniels as well. He does a great job!

I whelped a litter with my 7 year old GSP female a little over 3 months back. It was her first litter. She has been such a special bird dog for me until I wanted to have a pup from her. We had much trouble getting the two to tie. I ended up being forced to do an AI as a last resort. She had 5 pups a...

Carolina Gundogs

I do not know of any in VA but Marice Lindley in SC may be within driving distance for you. You will find none better.

Good luck with all!

Carolina Gundogs

I had a dog very similar to this once. I just kept quiet and shot the birds that the dog pointed. I missed a lot as well but praised her up if I missed the bird.
She slowly got more and more confident on birds as she had good experiences.

Carolina Gundogs

Congratulations Joe!

Carolina Gundogs

He is a great looking GSP!

Carolina Gundogs

Roberts, we look forward to seeing the pictures!

Carolina Gundogs

Thanks for the kind words everyone!
I have very high expectations for the litter I have recently whelped. I will be keeping several of the pups to forward my kennel with.

With all of the different dog food already available in the marketplace at this time, any new entries are only from a marketing perspective that are profit driven. There are good dogfoods readily available that are reasonably priced practically anywhere you shop. The dog food industry has taken it t...

Carolina Gundogs

I will most of the time choose female pups. I am not sure why but I have always seemed to gravitate to favor female pups overall.

With the American Kennel units, the biggest fault I see with them is the 8 gauge wire. I like the heavier 6 gauge wire. The much more inexpensive Doc Bob units sold by Tractor Supply has 6 gauge wire but not sure how the tube frame compares. The 6 gauge welded wire adds strength to the kennel as a w...

Carolina Gundogs

I believe the TK Products is considered the much higher quality product. If you believe you would be happy with the American Kennel, you might consider the Doc Bob units from Tractor Supply. They may have heavier gauge wire than the AK units.

I have never seen Brad do anything very bad since he does things about like a lot of us do. And it seems to be working for him just like it does for the rest of us. Ezzy Ezzy, you don't do things the way Brad does, so don't put yourself in his class. You aren't even close. Vernal Vernal, I can't de...

Carolina Gundogs

I've seen dogs do this from too much pressure on birds at a young age; especially a soft dog that is not confident. Many incorrectly use the ecollar and end up with a blinking dog. The poor dog doesn't understand why he is constantly being hurt. I believe the way to get the dog over it is just as sh...

Carolina Gundogs

Congratulations!

Carolina Gundogs

I used Sportmix for years with good results. I htought it was a very good food for the money.
The only reason I switched is because the local Tractor Supply did a poor job keeping it in stock and I finally got fed up enough to leave them.

Carolina Gundogs

Great looking pup!

Carolina Gundogs

The art of breeding exceptional litters is much more than a science IMO. Some will preach line breeding (and that does seem to be a very very reasonable approach) but if you look at the success of many of the top winning field trial professionals, their dogs are not line bred at all but select two p...

Carolina Gundogs

They will show in the outbox until the other party reads them if I remember correctly.

Carolina Gundogs

That is a great looking Brittany!

Carolina Gundogs

I have used Buckeye and Gundog Express with good results from both.

Carolina Gundogs

My condolences.

Carolina Gundogs

Beautiful!

Great video!

Carolina Gundogs

Wow! Congratulations!

Carolina Gundogs

Very Nice!

Carolina Gundogs

All, I made up this video from a guided hunt on Saturday with a recently turned 2 year old female I call Diva. I thought she did a good job and thought I would post for others to look at if they would like. Its nothing fancy but just a dog doing her job and having a good time while doing it! http://...

Carolina Gundogs

20 gauge. Light and effective

Carolina Gundogs

What a great looking pup!

Carolina Gundogs

I've seen what could have been very nice gundogs ruined as young pups by improper introduction to gunfire where their owners staked them out too close while they and their friends shot skeet.

Hopefully you bought a lottery ticket that same day!

Carolina Gundogs

Thanks! I thought it was a great deal as well.

Carolina Gundogs

You must post pictures!

Carolina Gundogs

I've always been drawn the older 20 ga SXS. I had 12 and 20 gauge pumps and automatics but nothing shoots as well for me as my old SKB 280 20 ga with an English stock. I love the lightness of the gun and has always been by far the easiest gun for me to hit targets with. I know people who love their ...

Carolina Gundogs

Sound like you are having a great season! I hope I can say the same when quail season comes in here in SC.

Carolina Gundogs

That pup should make one heck of a bird dog!

Carolina Gundogs

Johnny, Very nice!
