I just thought it would be one less thing on their neck, but it is probably good insurance to have 2 collars anyway. If one comes off, I will either have ID tags or a beeper depending on which collar came off and either should help me find the dogs.

Will attaching metal ID tags (name, number, rabies, etc...) directly to the e-collar effect the range of the e-collar? I was told at one time it would and have since attached them to a seperate collar and ran the dog with two instead of one.

Thanks,

Thanks for the comments!

I like the set-up DC, I might have to try that.

Tom,
Yes, that is one of those studded (blunt) pinch collars. It works like power steering for dogs when hooked to a check cord.

What is everyone's favorite roading harness? Where did you get it? I will use mine primarily for roading from ATV, but chain dragging is possilbe.

To my knowledge, the DNR hasn't conducted a study like that here. I am curious as to whether or not they could do anything with the results though. If the raptors are federally protected and it was found that they were causing a decline in a bird that is only state protected, wouldn't the DNR have t...

You guys are welcome to all our hawks out here in Utah! They are having a big impact on our chukar populations.

The dogs I was referring to are Braques. I talked to AKC during lunch and they said "NO".

Rut

RuttCrazed

I looked at that, but the problems I saw were that the dogs were not being imported and they aren't a breed that is eligible to be registered with AKC. They are purebred pups born in the US, registered with CKC because AKC doesn't recognize them as a breed yet. Is there anyway to enter them into AKC...

RuttCrazed

Is there a way to register for an AKC field trial with a dog that isn't recognized by the AKC but is registered with CKC? Could the dog be registered with American Field?

I know this isn't a standard question, just wondering if anyone has gone through this or knew of a way to handle it.

Welcome to the forum and thanks for the offer! I have a couple of Dave's other videos, so please COUNT ME IN!

Rut

I took them both out this weekend for the last hunt of the season. I noticed that when there are birds or scent around, the pup doesn't care where the older dog is, but if there is nothing to smell or see, she turns into the older dogs shadow!

He is just jealous of my liver shorthair (well that and other things). Don't worry about the liver one, TAK left the tail long enough on the pup to make up for it.

This weekend is the last weekend of our hunting seasons, so after that it is going to be training which I will do seperately.

Thanks,

Thanks for the reply. I have ran her a couple of times on her own and she did just fine, but as soon as I got them together again she just wanted to follow. Sounds like she needs more time alone.

Thanks,

I have a 7 month old GSP and a 7 year old GSP. They get along great and I have had no problems except when I take the two hunting together the young one spends half her time just following the bigger one around. When I first let them out of the truck the young one will actually "yip" as she tries to...

RuttCrazed

I hear that you can pre-order the unit for $499 from a couple suppliers on the internet. That isn't much over the MSRP for the gps alone!

How about some scenery pics? I have been working with a new pup this year, so actual harvest pics are a little harder to come by.

How do you do the wing and tail feather mounts? Looks really good, once you get a darker paint on the walls it will look even better!

Rut

I know our Cabelas (Lehi, UT) has them on sale for $370, sounds like a good deal. I think I will pick one up and give you a report.

I could probably take a picture like this every day!

Can never get enough puppy pics! Seems like only yesterday mine was 7 weeks old, now she is almost 6 months. Enjoy the first couple of days, it is the calm before the storm!

Rut

RuttCrazed

I have had and been around quite a few dogs in my life, but my newest puppy does something I have never seen before, she will bury everything I give her! Luckily she isn't very good at it and usually uses a pre dug "hole" and then just trys to cover it up.

Does anyone elses dog do this?

Rut

RuttCrazed

Peak,
Thanks for the offer.

Ohiogsp,
Yes, all the sides are wood, you basically get the doors and frame for the sides.

The box will likely be in a covered pickup bed all the time, so I am not concered about the weather breaking down the wood.

Rut

Wow, you are right! I was referring to the forecast in the region we hunt (region 1) and it was rather grim.

I do like your training grounds, is that your yard? If so, do you need a neighbor?

I was wondering how those shell tube would work. I have a walmart special vest. Has a rear load game bag, 2 large front pockets, and 12 elastic shell loops. I like it but I am growing out of it.

RuttCrazed

I think I have the same vest as Springer. It looks almost identical to the one Ryan has picked out, but it has the "quickloader tubes" instead of the elastic shell holders (like on this vest: http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/standard-item.jsp?_DARGS=/cabelas/en/common/catalog/item...
