For the most part the 209 is louder than a 20g or 12g pointed away from you and the dog. The 209 is only surpassed in loudness by the 32 blank. You don't want to muzzle blast over or close to dog in training till they have had lots of gunfire with birds killed for them. You know how much the muzzle ...

You can't put the bullet back in the gun after you have shot it. Bonnie H. one of the AKC reps got hers last week and is telling other trainers they were APPROVED!!!!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Apparently you got your wired crossed. It IS a DONE DEAL. Performance is not going to change...

5.0 is ovulation. Wait 48 hrs till eggs can be fertilized. Eggs are viable for another 48 hours before they start to dissolve. Your 12.8 is a good number to do AI. Doing AI the next day would be good timing. You probably hit it. All the eggs will be ripe and have the best numbers for producing pups....

I have now come up with reasons why the T5 won't be legal for AKC (even though listed it) 1. Garmin isn't even selling them yet. 2.The T5 and TT 15 looks identical other then the prongs so judges literally have to feel for the prongs which most won' want to do. 3. The AKC doesn't allow lighted coll...

If you are not using BIRDS to introduce gun fire to your dog then you are doing it wrong. We have gone over this 200 times and there is a wealth of information on how to do it right. There is no excuse to shooting a gun around your dog that is not chasing birds. Same old story of I don't know how I ...

I was sorting through the parts list and what I needed to make one myself. If you find a system that works. Please post and share.

Don't have that luxury.
Both JH and pigeons are 30 min outside of town. Can't make 2 trips when training.

Sometimes I don't make it out there for 2 wks. All have 30lb bulk feeders and 30 gal waters.

Been having problems with opossums, skunks and sm raccoons getting into pigeon house and opossums, and skunks into JH. :evil: Another trial and error in using different fences around JH and pigeon house to keep varmint out. Been using 2x4" fence wire for about a year now on the JH and has totally el...

Use basically the same but larger feeders and waterers as in quail johnny houses. I use 5 gal. buckets with nipples on bottom elevated about 10" from floor. Bucket will freeze but will not bust bucket most of the time. Picture is actually a 20 gal barrel. More water for the hot summers here in TX. F...

I have seen on several posts on other sites where they upgraded collars or trimmed the excess 10" off the collar that non of the pointing dogs need and all the collars were under the 9oz weight limit. If Garmin would put a 15" collar instead of the 22" it would work for the pointing dog field trials...

What is everyone(Field Trialers) doing that didn't buy a Garmin system 4 yrs ago which the DC40 was available doing for field trials. Is there available the older DC 30 & 40's for people to buy. We are restricted to 4+ yr old technology that is not near as good as what is available present day to th...

hi-tailyn

How many bought the DC50 thinking it was the newest technology and safest and quickest way to recover your dog. How many pre orders are there for the new T5 thinking for sure it was going to be approved. Now that you can't get the old DC40 or DC 30's what is the answer? I think the old DC30 will be ...

Bottom Line. ONLY way to introduce gunfire is with BIRDS. Any other way is a gamble. These are BIRD DOGS!!! 8) Not Shooting Range dogs. :evil: Not Food dogs. :roll: :roll: I agree there should be a sticky on this. It is So Important and So Easy to do it Right with Birds!! With out Birds the fool wi...

hi-tailyn

+2 SetterNut The best way to expose a dog to gunfire that I have seen and used is to get the dog chasing a bird. When the dog is running hard after the bird fire the gun away for the dog and watch for a reaction. Then let them chase another one and don't fire, just watch. If you see a reaction to th...

Glad you didn't do the abortion shot. We did that with a female after a repeat of last breeding but this time was a mistake breeding and ended up having 3 aborted litters after that. Never got her bred again. The last breeding did produce a National Champion Shooting dog. We should have let her keep...

Sounds to me like run off dogs. My husband has lost one dog in his life. He left his jacket where the truck was parked. The next morning the dog was laying on the jacket. After the round and round tumble, to say the least the dogs were scared and confused. If restrained in crate they would of been ...

Our pup was riding in my lap when the air bags blew. SHAME on you ! ! :evil: IMO, you should never transport a dog that isn't crated.

Why do you choose to ship your dogs or puppies the way you do? As a breeder and have shipped a lot of pups across the country.

Thanks Sharon for the info. Not as hard as I thought it could be.

This will be my first at shipping outside the USA. Is there any extra health certificates that are needed for pup to make this trip?
I normally ship United/Continental with their climate controlled cargo area. They fly in any temperature.
Anyone having experience with this that can give some pointers?
