You have access to remote release traps? If not you bringing him in on a check cord? If you are, your letting him sight point. He hit's scent, you stop him. Yes i use a check cord but he only drags it around I don't hold on to it. He will such and skip birds that he doesn't see. He only point when ...

chrisss

He's 7 months and when I plant birds he doesn't use his nose and he only points if he sees the bird. Tried bringing him cross wind but he does point

chrisss

I have been putting my dog on birds and have notice that he doesn't scent point but instead sight pointing. How do I fix this?

ringworm? ivermec is given monthly for heartworm prevemtion.....Chris you should probably read about heartworm prevention so you understand how the medication controls heartworm....basically it kills the young worms. SCT we had to treat a dog for mange, the dose was 1cc for a month, thats 10,000 mi...

chrisss

Do you guys give it to your dogs the same time you do the ringworm treatments? Im planning if I could give it all at one time so its easier

This is a good link to understand dose.

Is ivomec when purchased new considered undiluted?

chrisss

Whats the correct dosage? I read somewhere and it said .10 per 10lbs? Talked to the vet and she was no help and that otc wasn't as good.

I am currently a a road block with training my 7 month DD. He knows his commands but when I transition it to the e collar he isn't obeying like he does on the check cord. For example when I put a check cord on him he obeys all commands with out applying pressure but when I take off the check cord an...

Im talking about all dog boxes. He hates it even when he knows we are going somewhere he trust his best to avoid going in there

chrisss

My dog understands the kennel command but hates going in there. How should I go about making him love the kennel?

chrisss

Thanks. I was a little worried because I never seen him act like this until today.

Took my 6 month old DD to his first vet check up and he wasn't responding to any commands and was going nuts. How would I calm him down? Or train him

chrisss

Looks like he chewed and swallowed only a couple small pieces before I caught him and took it away. This is from me looking at the remaining of the rod.

chrisss

Has this ever happened to anyone? Should I be concerned and take him to a vet?

chrisss

My 6 month old dd is having problems heeling off leash. He does very well with the prong collar but that's it. Any helps would be appreciated.

The brand

chrisss

Anyone uses this?

chrisss

This sounds like a job for a check cord, and a real bird. But use both wisely. Most pups can be enticed to come without the check cord, but it doesn't hurt to just let them drag one until it's needed. http://i1.ytimg.com/vi/AeDBG4YnPSQ/mqdefault.jpg Take all the time it takes.

I have a 3 months dd and have been playing fetch with him every 2 to 3days about 3 retrieves at most. The problem I had at first was that my dog would go grab the bumper and not come to me so I fixed it by walking away. Now he will run to the bumper and nibble aon it then just runs back to me withou...

I'm from Minnesota and it just started snowing so road salt is going to be used. How bad is this road salt for my dog and how do you prevent your dog fro. Eating snow mix with salt?

chrisss

Before I buy a one I was wondering if anyone has one that they no longer use and is will to sell it to me. Pm me please thanks

chrisss

I use heated blanket and put it under the kennels then just cover the kennels with a regular blanket works great

How do you guys start your pup off with tracking for the first time?

chrisss

How do you guys teach your dog to track scent and blood?

chrisss

Thanks for the help guys looks like it was just dirt in his eyes it cleared out after I rinsed it out

chrisss

My pup just started having red or pink eye for a couple of days now and have started to notice eye booger. Any idea what it is and how to treat it? He has been around the yard only until today. I took him out to for a little duck hunting but that's it. Please help

What's the difference in puppy food vs. Adult? I just picked a 8 week old dog and the breeder doesn't feed him puppy food but instead it diamond extreme athlete adult food. Is this a problem or is it ok?

chrisss

Irt time for me to finally choose a pup in a month and was wondering how everyone chooses a pup and what I should look for and avoid from pup to pup.

I know one dog is very whining and seems very dependent while the others are not but I like his color. Should I choose a different one?

Any videos or training dvds you guys would recommend?

I'm planning on making mines an winter and summer dog house. When the dog enters the house the first section is going to be uninsulated then there well be a another entrance in the that section that will lead to the insulated part of the house. This will give the dog a choice on where to sleep
