Re: Losing style on flush
yes I saw the exact same thing some years ago. A gsp female was good at finding birds with a nice stylish point, but as soon as you walked past her she would lose that style and seem to lose interest. My feelings is that she was ruffed up for creeping in on the bird when she was being trained.

Re: Searching for a new dog food...
You can't go wrong with 4health, made by diamond at their California plant. 30% protein 20% fat. No grains. About $1.00 a lb. give or take. My dogs are hard runners and they do fine on it.

We catch wild California quail in traps and use them for training, put them in launchers and release them, never shoot them. Training for steady to the flush. They do well in my pigeon coop. I don't know if they would recall. They are sure strong flyers not like bobwhites..
