I liked your .gif Bruce.

I forgot all about that sorry!!!!

Adam

what about all the distractions at shows? there are hundreds or thousands of dogs people all over add in outdoor shows and you have even more distractions and yet those people can stack their dogs.. if you tell that dog whoa and get control of the head there is no reason you shouldn't be able to tak...

Congrats!!

Thank you pear!!!!

All Grown up now... The fact of the matter is this post should not even still be up in a public forum.. The fact that he continues to post nonsense to stir everybody up is unacceptable yet nobody has told him to grow up. John at times you post some great information and I enjoy reading it but lately...

congrats!!

Adam

Thanks folks for the feedback, after working the stock boards for years this is actually a pretty tame forum. I do appreciate the feedback from all, the good, bad, and promote my kennel (lol). After doing my due dilligence I've made a decision and I will have a new family member the 2nd week of may...

Adam

Family Labs... :D You will never be without a GSP again. :wink: BTW, I have heard from reliable sources that the pheasant hunting in Wisconsin was outstanding compared to recent years. A lot of the guys that I talked to skipped their usual Iowa hunting trips and hunted around home. Jon, Do you real...

Ask them how many WILD birds they shot over their brood stock in the last 5 years.
Please explain how shooting birds over brood stock makes them better? Does it change the DNA they pass to their pups.

Just curious,

I was wondering the same thing

Adam

Nobody said their dogs were terrible. Everybody's opinion is the only one here. So the guy loves SS dogs, in his mind that's the only way to go. We may disagree, but really what does is matter? Who cares what he says or what anyone else says for that matter. You guys cracking on opinions need to ta...

Adam

I know its not possible for all but this is the exact reason My pup is with me all day no matter what at the shows. I've heard too many crazy stories about dogs being stolen or killed especially if they're doing well

Adam

The Starved rock kennel club shows were held at the wheaton fairgrounds..

Adam

Original Mnsp brought up a good point in another post about testing young dogs.. If your dog is ready at 6 months do you test or do you wait till a certain age before testing?

Adam

I agree with you 100% and trust me i would've never ever ever ever tested her if she wasn't ready and we werent going to have fun. I was suppose to get into the illinois test(she would've been 7 months) but it was full so this was our only chance this fall without having to travel very far and i fig...

Adam

my pup is 1/2 DK 1/2 AKC and theres nothing this pup can't compete in shes 7 months old finished her JH in 4 straight tests under 6 1/2 months, scored a 106 prize II in the navhda natural ability test at 5 1/2 months, and has won puppy bitch class in 2 of the 3 shows we've entered the only time we d...

Adam

I'll try and work out the details guys and let you know exactly how big the fields are and if theres a way we could spilt the bird releases up. We ran a few of these last year and they worked out well. My group never had more then 2 dogs on the ground at a time its alot of shooting i think the most ...

Adam

would anybody be interested if i put together a pretty big hunt at a Hunt club here in central illinois? for $150 per person you'd have 10 pheasant 5 chukar and 5 quail released typically we'd like to have 3 or 4 man groups so thats 60 or 80 birds per field

Adam

Thanks!! yeah thats my first AKC title so I'm proud of the little girl shes a heck of a pup!

Adam
