Re: Atv handling in field trials
We had a handler on a ATV at last years GSPCA Amateur Nationals that ran his dog as a bye. He kept ATV at a horse flat walk pace, and all seemed to go ok. Once his dog pointed, he got off and walked to work his dog. I don't think I would run my dogs braced with a ATV handler. I train mostly off ATV...

Went out training with dezasterous gun dogs this morning to put our pup on some birds. Took some nice pictures of a dog with style who liked to stand his birds, wait till i walked back and tapped him on the head to retrieve. This boy is NICE> should be ready for gun dog stakes at 11 months.

Re: Open Puppy or Amateur Derby
Run it in whatever you want, but there can be lasting effects from dogs catching birds. If there is amateur puppy there should be open puppy. I say skip defby until the dog is broke and save yourself a lot of heartache and money in trying to correct bad habbits.

Why start with ferrell squeekers? It isn't expensive to find out who races and buy old breeders that they don't want and culls.. I'm paying $5.00 a bird for squeekers from good racing stock. Feed is expensive when you have 300-400 birds.
