I did with a leash till he chased a rabbit in front of me ... stood the bike up on the front tire, balanced precariously for about 1/2 s, and then went over -- while my wife was screaming. That is hard on an old fat guy! Dog just kept looking at me "WHAT?" I now just use an e-collar on non-busy times.

Ribeye in the Sky ... it is good! Man do they have great eyesite.

While the Dennis Prager speech was not actually given at a school according to SNOPES, it still is good stuff and "SHOULD" be given.

I bought a used Andis 2 speed. Works great but does get hot -- just spray it down with the cleaner/oil. I got it from a lady going out of the horse business. I have bought 3 more blades for it and a set of combs so that momma uses on me as well. I think I paid $80 and thought it was a good deal. The...

My older dog is Maverick and my new younger dog is Rusty. But my son calls him Goose and he looks a lot like yours!

A very handsome face and demeanor!

How does that line go? "I never lend out my gun, my dog, or my wife ... in that order." Patnership is about the same.

When you watch the Glen Beck interview, you get a whole different flavor to the story.

Quail Forever does not support releasing birds nor predator control (their only two limitations for local chapters).

Don't roast your tukey before his is roosted, called in, and shot!

Good Luck, though!

So how much is a Smith pup?

My two Britts are quite respectful and attentiive when I have the collars on them. It gives me the confidence of not losing them (chasing bunnies) and the beeper comes in handy too. I rarely have to use much stimulation. One tends to do it his way without the collar.

We picked up a "fully trained" (was not correct) Britt many years ago. Within a few days he had a seizure and I put a stop payment on the check. The dog had obviously been obused and I don't know if that was part of it. We went back to the kennel owner and he said it wasn't a big deal. He talked me ...

Mearns Quail ... if it will ever rain.

Rocks and sticks ... although my older dog seems to be ok with the the younger one, NOT AT ALL! I sure hope he grows out of it. That and the poop! GEEZZZZ!

Another view: An atheist was walking through the woods. "What majestic trees"! "What powerful rivers"! "What beautiful animals"! He said to himself. As he was walking alongside the river, he heard a rustling in the bushes behind him. He turned to look. He saw a 7-foot grizzly charge towards him. He...

I bought one for my Britts through Gundog Supply but my wife needs to resize the loops (Been waiting a couple of years now).

So is there a secret for not haveing the birds pooping in the water or food?

Kirkland from Costco.

Hey now I didn't want you to buy all of them! I still wanted 10.

Glad it worked out.

I was thinking the same about the reverse sneezing. I had searched for that term a few weeks ago.

We have these containers with giant square lids just inside the back door (too hot outside most of the year), called The Vittles Vault. Very satisfied with them and I hear they are ant proof.

So, do/should you: :?: 1. Leave the skin on (pluck) or go skinless? 2. Cut all the fat off (yah, I know I'm talking pen raised birds)? Does it taste bad? 3. Leave the bird whole or cut up into pieces? 4. Brine the birds 5. Marinate the birds 6. Cheat and add fat (BACON!!!) Any other comments except ...

Let's see: leaving trash littering is already illegal but let's ban target practicing just in case?????? NO I DON'T AGREE WITH YOU! I think target practice and shooting on public lands is part of hunting. But respect and safety are part of that. I guess following your thoughts that we should outlaw ...

BigTub

No NSTRA. I believe I am a "casual recreationalist" according to K9 or something like that. I do tend to untrain that which the professionals instilled. However, I really do enjoy the dogs.

How depressing. Today is the final day of quail season and I am stuck home this weekend watching the Superbowl. Poor dog had the runs all this last week and I figured it was best not to tax him too much. It has been a really bad season and the water situation does not look good for next year. Oh wel...

BigTub

Thank you. I have 2 Britts. This is the older dog -- I imagine here he is stalking prey through the tall grass as a lion would. I love this picture. The younger dog (from Arlette's) doesn't hold still long enough for me to get pictures!

I dont agree with banning regulated hunting and (regulated) dog training. But I dont like target shooting on public lands, go to the range. Same with ATV riding and other "big footprint activities", go trash some urban [location] and make all kinds of noise there too. My name isnt Polli-Anna ----- ...

I graduated from new pup to Jr hunter! Does that mean that you guys that know what you're doing are going to take me out for the last day of quail season (tomorrow)?

I want to resurrect this thread. What is generally the treatment? Just push everything through with bulky food?

I see lots of commiserating but not much of "what to do" besides quarantining the dog. Any new ideas?

Our 8 year old as a knee that pops out. I have a vet whose partner who is vet bone surgeon. He looked at our dog and basically said until it becomes a problem with pain not to worry about that.

Quail Unlimited has only a few rules but one is they don't release birds. Is the low survival success the reason?

I would be interested in hearing from some folks that use the collar on the flank how they eventually transition to the collar on the neck for whoa. It makes no sence to transition from flank to neck imo . Start with one a stay there, that's y I do all my ecollar work on the neck, but that's just m...
