Hello - New to board

Post by Shotgun Kennel » Fri Nov 21, 2008 8:52 am

I am new to this board so I thought I would introduce myself. My wife and I are addicted to GSPs and wing shooting. I have hunted since I was old enough to do so and have owned both Labs and now 5 GSPs. I first got into dog training in the mid 70s. I handled a German Shepard for police work. I trained with a trainer from the St. Louis, Mo. K-9 Academy. I just tracked criminals, no drugs or bombs. That got me hooked on dog training. For the last 13 years or so I have been involve with NAVHDA. I do not have any one particular “method” of training nor do I consider myself an expert. Although, I have successfully trained all of my GSPs to handle pretty well on land and water. I enjoy reading other ideas and may put my 2 cents in once in awhile. Also, I enjoy a good sense of humor and hope no one is offended by my dry sarcastic humor.

Thanks
There are only two seasons. One is hunting the other, is not.

Welcome to the board. Be careful with your dry sarcastic humor. Some people on here (not me) are real sensitive. :lol:

Welcome ! Nice website.
I love dry sarcastic humor. On a computer though ( no body language ) it sometimes comes across in a way we didn't intend. Use lots of smilies. :)
