"On a side note Karl, have they got my new fence up along the road yet? I have been gone a few weeks." I'll run by there and check. I have been getting home after dark lately, but will go that way in the morning. We have a second adjuster coming to the house this Saturday to meet with our contractor...

why don't you volunteer to "train" the dog for her Coop.

kbshorthairs

lot's of good advice here......always be safe and when you do take a shot......don't miss.

kbshorthairs

Big congrats Chip!!! Reading that post was almost like being there. Sounds like the litter is off to a great start!

kbshorthairs

I may be oversimplifying the whole deal, but here is my two cents. Dogs that I have owned have always had natural point and natural retrieve from the time that they are first exposed to birds. However, we as owners refine those natural abilities. A puppy will point and perhaps even stand their birds...

hope I am not too late to enter!

kbshorthairs

Glad you found the pup......that is a terrible feeling. I would suggest the Garmin. I have name plates on all of my dogs collars, but that relies on honest people calling me if they find the dog. A chip would not only require honest people, but them taking them to a vet and having them scanned. I wo...

one more reason that I am envious, Doc! You really do have it ALL!!!!

kbshorthairs

Lantz, I am very sorry to hear about this. Words are never enough.

kbshorthairs

I'm green with envy.

kbshorthairs

blows me away that they can run already........we are still above 100* here everyday!!!!!

kbshorthairs

so....... are we going to get to see the finished product???

kbshorthairs

That is just God's way of getting even with you guys out there on the prairie. You can't have miles and miles of prime picturesque country to hunt and then complain about how rough you have it. I am jealous of Doc Favor's pics all the time.....and then I watch his old video where he is huffin and pu...

The Vet is always the best option, but Benedryl is second best......easy to get and keep on hand. Ask a vet to verify, but I think 1mg per pound is the advised dosage for dogs.

Maybe that's the point...on a thread with no good answer, refer folks to a link to nowhere! I like it! Gotta get that into the Chukar12osophy WWW handbook I'm workin' on.

FWIW........I am in the truck business.........didn't throw in my personal preference........but gave solid advice on the Ford. If it is 7.3L, you will be happy towing. Don't buy a Dodge. Don't consider a Toyota.

kbshorthairs

I guess everyone has their opinion about what would constitute a "Rusty" bred dog. Rusty was whelped in 1978. Showing up once in a pedigree doesn't equate to being a Rusty bred dog......IMO.

kbshorthairs

I am assuming it has the diesel engine, but which one? Fords that had the 7.3L powerstroke had tons of people that swore by them. When Ford went to the 6.0L they experienced lots of injector problems and head issues. The miles are not an issue if it is a diesel engine. If you are buying it from an i...

kbshorthairs

You have really done some homework on this deal!

Good luck with the new pup.......hope you don't have a stroke before you pick him up!!! Don't forget to take a deep breath now and then.

kbshorthairs

Ol' Doc Favor has got some pretty good lookin hounds......and he knows how to work that camera as well!!!!!

kbshorthairs

He was a good one! Glad you got to spend so much time with him Carl!

kbshorthairs

that's the way to stir up the $#!t Andy!

I never knew we were blessed with such a braintrust here on GDF. I might have to start paying closer attention.

Ezzy, you are not understanding the original post once again!!!!!!..you are always ready to debate people and THEIR reasons for using certain foods..you stated SELDOM are dogs allergic to dog food..is that why so many foods are coming out with grain free products because they are NOT NEEDED?..thats...

great pics of some fantastic looking dogs.......thanks Lantz!!!

kbshorthairs

Those are some GREAT pics and very very stylish dogs!!!! Thanks for sharing. Makes me hate these three foot snow drifts even more!!!!!
I was going to pick a favorite, but I love 'em all!

kbshorthairs

IMO, there are tons of factors to consider. Most should be thought out BEFORE buying a pup, but that doesn't always happen. I doubt if anyone here is saying that ONLY a professional can train a bird dog, but I would submit that it is easier to train correctly initially than "undo" a mistake. It blow...

kbshorthairs

great pics and a very good looking girl.....thanks for sharing!

kbshorthairs

I have the priefert on concrete runs and love them. Assemble in a few minutes with no tools....worth the money in my opinion.

kbshorthairs

I agree with Dave.......I would definitely expose the pup that age to birds and I shot tons of birds over my six month old pup this fall. Breaking the dog to be steady to wing and shot is another story.

kbshorthairs

I'm in........do we need to write our congressman or what?????

kbshorthairs

'ol Doug isn't letting anyone else hold that pup......

got this from Robbi,

Hayley Killam won w\Hank and James Messer w/ Opal

Congrats to the winners and I hope the weather doesn't create tons of trouble for anyone!

kbshorthairs

I believe the are going to cancel the All Age due to the weather that is coming in. Several people are going to hunker down there and ride out the storm. I hope the weathermen are off on their predictions.

kbshorthairs

Awesome! All of your pics and videos are always AWESOME!!!!! I suppose you play the fiddle too?

kbshorthairs

Those are some good lookin boys!!!!

kbshorthairs

Anytime you can get out......it is a good day!!! Thanks for the awesome pics!

kbshorthairs

Just do a search of Doc Favors posts.......he huffs and puffs on the videos, but his pics are INCREDIBLE!

kbshorthairs

I heard this from Robbi today at the Quail....Dennis Brath won w/ Dave Quindts male Tex and Eldon Hondo went ru w~Albert of the Killams.

So Dave, I guess Tex got those dillos out of his system at the perfect time!!!!! Huge congrats brother!!!!

kbshorthairs

Now Ezzy.......have you never seen those hairy dogs of yours lying in the sun? They love it!

kbshorthairs

It has been my experience that show people or people from a show background are more insistent about the use of their kennel name on registrations. The field people I had spent time with didn't mind if you used their name in the registration, but it certainly wasn't a requirement. I have decided tha...

kbshorthairs

No science, but even with a full roof, the dogs will get plenty of sun. Roof above will only block most of the sun while it is overhead. Lots of sun will get in when it is rising and setting. I had a wise old guy advise me to build a full roof kennel with a walls on the north and west side, but open...

Purina Pro Plan Performance

only have two dogs right now, but started feeding it when we had a kennel full of about 20 dogs......feed it from the time pups are ready for solid food.

I just learned that a forum member, MRCREOLE, lost his home and possessions to a fire this evening. Please keep his family in your prayers.

Wouldn't you rather go chase some more roosters this weekend instead of those stinky ducks?

kbshorthairs

Ezzy, I guess it could be like every other rule or law. The people that break rules and laws aren't going to pay attention to more rules and laws. I wouldn't mind if they posted in the for sale section, but why in the world post the same thing over and over......or set up multiple accounts to give t...

I think it is cool that we have this forum and can post when we have things for sale, but I have a question for the mods. Is it considered cool for businesses to start several threads, pretending to be regular members, hawking their products? There has been a recent abundance of threads about mail o...
