Way to go Molly!

Welcome to the forum. Wish you the best in this great sport of bird hunting behind man's best friend!

quackerjack

I'm very sorry for your loss...I wish there was something any of us could do. Remember the good ole' days with them and help others to feel that same joy. You are in a special position right now, albeit very difficult, but you can help others through difficult times which will definitely let your do...

quackerjack

That sounds like a great pup you got. Sounds like you will have many more great hunts together in the future.

quackerjack

Best of luck this weekend! Can't wait to hear how it was.

quackerjack

Great story of success. Thanks for sharing.

quackerjack

There was a recent post about having success with two different breeds of hunting dogs. I figure most breeds can hunt successfully together given sufficient time or exposure but I suspect there are better combinations than others. So with that I am curious to hear what breed combinations fellow GDF ...

Looks and sounds like it was a GREAT trip! Got me all excited for my new pup. You'll have to keep us updated on your Deseeker pup. Is Katie a Deseeker Brit too? Thanks for posting!

quackerjack

Thanks for the responses. Those pictures look very similar to her bumps. Things are looking better after getting her back on her normal feed and bathing after hunting through the brush. Thanks again!

quackerjack

Well done! That is a great looking Brit you got there. And the tail on that one rooster is LONG! Did you measure that guy?

Definitely! I would have never thought it possible.

Thank you for your service and welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the forum Jamie!

quackerjack

My buddy noticed about 50-75 whitehead bumps on his 2 yr old gsp this weekend. There are a lot of BlackBerry bushes, stickers, and thistles where we have been hunting. She doesn't scratch at them either. They pop just like a whitehead. He thinks it may be an allergic reaction to change in feed. Whic...

Thanks for giving an update. It is GREAT to hear things are going so well, especially for someone that is planning on getting a FB in the near future! I love Ellie's color and the intensity of her point is exceptional. That is a lot of birds you have been able to find, especially in just her first y...

I think that is a smart decision right there!

Good looking pups!

quackerjack

Welcome to the forum! Although I am not in WA I am just south of you a bit in Western Oregon but have family in Vancouver that I visit all the time. Sounds like you have struck gold with that new pointer. Best of luck the rest of the season!

quackerjack

Great pictures of your dogs. I'm sorry to hear about the bouts with the tumors but it is funny how those challenges/trials make us view life from a different perspective and often help us to enjoy more what we truly have. Welcome to the forum!

quackerjack

Congrats on getting the girlfriend out! Sounds like fun was had by all. Thanks for sharing.

Nice intensity! She's definitely a looker.

quackerjack

Welcome! Let's see those pictures! I wish you and your new buddy the best.

Some good looking dogs!

Welcome! Congrats on the new GWP.

quackerjack

That's awesome! Welcome and best of luck this weekend on the opener! Post pictures.

Welcome and best of luck with your ES. Can't wait to see pictures.

Nice combination. Welcome to the forum and post pictures.

Glad you posted pictures, Josh! I know you said they were big last night but man, a picture truly is worth a thousand words! That buck is THICK! And I would love to drop a bull like your wife's. Well done to both of you.

quackerjack

welcome Griz! Condolences on your past dogs but I wish you the best with your new pup. Can't wait to see pictures. You can definitely find a lot of good info in past threads here on GDF about e-collars. Remember, e-collars are meant for reinforcing your training and you'll do just fine.

quackerjack

I don't blame you for sticking with him. Sounds like you have a great hunting buddy for years to come. He is a looker too!

quackerjack

I LOVE watching your hunts! Awesome!

quackerjack

That's exciting! Sounds like he is coming along just as you had hoped. I love the liver-orange-white coloring. Gorgeous dog! Thanks for sharing.

quackerjack

That is awesome you found a bunch of birds! Nice pictures and thanks for sharing.

What do you mean, pheasant hunting ruins their point as a puppy?

quackerjack

He looks like he has plenty of intensity and style! Enjoy!

quackerjack

Welcome and thank you for your service. Those Brittanys are sure good dogs. Best of luck with Remi. Hope you enjoy the forum.

quackerjack

Welcome Dan! Hope you enjoy the forum. What kind of dog are you thinking of getting?

quackerjack

The old dog is a grouse finding/pointing machine, and is one of the few dogs I have hunted with that points the western forest grouse effectively. Not really sure why, the dogs I have hunted over all are great on pheasant, huns, quail and chukars, but they always seem to blow past or flush the fore...

quackerjack

I think this is the key here: Healthy, up to date on all shots, on a good feed, and gets exercise both mental and physical. It sounds like you're doing all you can and if he is healthy, he should/will do all he can too. If your vet is worried, then I would be worried. Otherwise, just continue to lov...

quackerjack

Great pics Seems like the forest grouse did well all over the west, here in WY both the blues and ruffed grouse had big broods. My 6 month old pup is pointing them...for a while, then she points them as they sit in the tree after they flush! Hunting fool hens can be comical at times with a bird sit...

Ryan, I can't wait! It is awesome to be out but doesn't even compare to being out watching the dog work. A whole new level of hunting.

quackerjack

Thanks for the kind words. Georgia is doing well, we are very glad she is back safely. The dog above is actually a different dog, his name is Rusty. My buddy Trav had Rusty for a while, rescued him, trained him and then re-homed him with one of his buddies in western ND. Have you decided on a kenne...

quackerjack

Had a couple great weekends hunting for grouse! We saw loads of birds but due to the dry summer/fall, they weren't in the typical areas we have found them in the past. And the leaves were vibrant! I was even able to get my Pops out for the first time. Boy did he love it when the grouse would explode...

quackerjack

Success indeed. So glad you guys found her, and she is doing well.

quackerjack

That's awesome!

quackerjack

Welcome to the forum, Jim. Can't wait to see pictures of your dog. Best of luck with your dog.

quackerjack

It could be the way I play with him. We sometimes play tug or wrestle, but you can wrestle witjout biting, yeah? It might be a good idea to stop wrestling with him until you get the biting and nipping problem fixed. Also, I would definitely NOT play tug of war, EVER! It can often be confusing to th...

No way! I'm sorry Ryan. I really hope you and your Dad find Georgia. I can't even begin to imagine how you guys feel...
