wow what a story. hoping for a speedy recovery, good luck.

dead mike

sorry for your loss

dead mike

Acooper, yes i do think the DK system has less problems.

No i would not charge more for a tan pup.

CampGSP the color black in our standard is a DQ fault so should black dogs be bred?? Im still stuck on this point. Isnt black a DQ in the german system and akc? If it is why is everyone going nuts about a tan? I would buy one of those pups if I wanted a shorthair. I would stud him out too if he was...

good for you Chuck, hope you can get a title

Best breeder in the history of the breed.

Probably shot most 75% of my grouse between 3-5 pm, i also see the most right after a rain when the sun is out. Good luck

You people are bullies, start your own thread and leave this guy alone.

my dog was in a snare three years ago, i got there after about 3mins of yelping, it was sunk in deep, real deep. The dog was in panick mode and i was lucky to have been close by at the time, she usually ranges pretty far In a conibear your dog would have been dead in 3 minutes. My bros DD got caugh...

Rockstar, i know two trappers that trap with their dogs with them, they know not to get in the traps. Werner Herzog has a great documentary called Happy People, they follow Russian trappers who go out for 6 month stretches and trap. They all have a husky with them, their dogs are trained not to get ...

Goodog, good post. Whats the breeding on the dog Stan gave you? Miller in there for sure i would imagine, any Shadow etc? Real curious. Lucky to get a pup like that.

agreed

And thats the answer i think.

Very impressed, nice work Georgia

wow, great photos :thumbup:

It will never happen, Why would someone place a breed other than a pointer or setter in the top spot of a qualifying event. So he could be shamed out of ever judging again? SO he could be the laughing stock of the pointer/setter world? Like it or not its breed specific. If i took the greatest all a...

dead mike

ya good point. i keep forgetting you cant trust people these days from stealing your stuff.

i hope things change

dead mike

Nice work

My brothers DD was almost lost last winter to a conibear set for a lynx. I think the easiest way to curb this problem is to have trap lines marked with signs. One trapper up here has signs at the start of his line, i appreciate that.

dead mike

Back in the early 90's there was a GSP half qualified (won one qualifying trail, the Cajin I think), he was owned by the same lady that owned HOF Brush Country Spector. There have only been very few AA Brittanys, lyle Johnson won with. We have done better in SD Ch, Rick Smith as mentioned, Jim Holm...

stiff. the hair is like needles and stay in fabric for years, alot more needle like than a gsp. They are great coats in themselves, just dont meet the criteria of the German bred dogs.

Entertaining stuff fellars!!

nothing worse than hunting with a guy who uses a whistle. Spent a entire weekend with a guy whistling to his dogs, it was unbearable.

dead mike

awesome! shes ready for a trial

dead mike

My brother owns a Chessie and he is protective! I like that alot in a dog, a guy tried to come in their house once and his wife put the dog on him, if he owned a lab the guy would have been licked to death. Smart as a whip, retrieves all the birds our pointers cant find, and a great pheasant dog. Th...

dead mike

heres my advice, you might not be able to afford this but i suggest you try. sell the gun save some money and have yourself fitted for a shotgun. Take your dimensions and order a Ugartechea through LCS. Youll never be able to shoot another gun again. If you cant afford that, shoulder every gun in yo...

Last winter my brothers drathaar put his head in a lynx conibear trap. My bro and his wife were 100 yards down the trail when they heard the screaming, through testosterone my brother broke the conibear trap and got the dog out. The dog had his shock collar and regular collar on, both are heavy nylo...

dead mike

had a sd800. the transmetter had to be reset sometimes which takes 2 mins and one collar died at about 5 yr mark. They replaced it for 25 bucks. The dogtra 2000 was $135 to replace. Sportdog has been good to me and have great customer service.

dead mike

not working for me. youtube it

how olds the dog? Beauty work

As for AKC contributing more money than the FDSB, well of course. Your comparing a giant registry that will register every breed with primarily a hunting dog registry. The AKC gets most of their money from shows, agility, etc. Almost like comparing mom and pop store to a Wallmart.

dead mike

Cajun Casey, do you believe a dog run under the AKC format is better than the American Field format?

dead mike

$$$$$ for AKC

dead mike

Thanks:)

dead mike

still screwed up, just on now, took four days and had to go through dogs for sale section

dead mike

I hunt with both. Use the lab for close work and flushing and retrieving. Great combo

dead mike

save up some more cash. The axis has a horrible trigger and most people hate the grip. You would be way better off saving an extra 100 bucks and getting the 110-111 models with accutrigger. for another 100 you can get an accustock savage, the accuarcy of savages cant be denied. if you dont have the ...

Sorry and not wanting to sound like a smart "bleep" but maybe its time to get a pointer.

My friend has gone through the same thing with a big name in the GSP gene pool and its just downright wrong.

dead mike

why are you acting like this is some Miracle? it's pointer showing through. the dogs will DNA. it happens time to time whoever made the comment about a shorthair at Ames. if that was the case it would have happened a ling time ago. look at fidler look at shorthair. remarkable the likeness. the best...

over unders, beretta and browning. when im not getting it done with those, the wingmaster comes out

i like her and i like that breeding you did

dead mike

nice pup. any hta in your dog

PP's dont shed.

All German vdog breeds will fit the bill. I have a DD and GWP (same dogs), 1 PP, a Chessie, and my first ever EP. Out of my dogs no question about it for fur (rabbits, squirrel, coon) the DD/GWP's and PP are great. If i were into boar the Chessie is hands down tougher than the other two and more agr...
