Trying to keep my wife happy
I spend more time over at Ultimatepheasanthunting forum, and have already asked this over there. But I thought this would be a good place to ask also.
Background info:
My wife and I have been having a weight loss competition between the 2 of us. If I win I get a bird dog, if she wins its a baby. We have about a month left, and I am going to win. So I am doing my research on many different breeds. I have always hunted over GSP's some very very good, some just good.
So in order to honor my wife while getting a new pup I want to get one that has a lot less shedding than my current mutt (sharpei-basset hound). I want to hear from people who have dogs living in the house full time how much their dogs shed.
I am 75% pheasant and quail - 25% duck
thanks

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
Well first i have to laugh at the title because when you read it then read the background info it sure dont seem like the wife is going to be happy if you 1) beat her at losing weight and 2) she doesnt get a baby BUT as for your question just from my experience i would definitley NOT get a lab if you dont want shedding, i would say also from my experience shorthairs and english pointers arent to bad for shedding but still do shed their coats in the change of seasons as most dogs do, good luck with the search for a new pup ...ruth

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
I have a lab and a GSP and OMG does the lab leave hair balls every where the shedding is BAD . I will say that the lab is VERY kick back and has never harmed my boys in any way . We got the lab when the oldest was right around 2 then a year later we had another baby . Our lab is like a little mom he will not let my kids out of his sight and does not like strange dogs around my kids.
Now I don't think I could of done a baby and a GSP at the same time . The GSP has a ton of energy and always needed like a little kid.

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
No question about the labs shedding more. The undercoat dribbles out year round. We joked that we should go into the lab wool sweater business with just the one lab.
My GSPs are pretty good in that area. Still, a couple of times per year, they blow coat for a few days. A brushing helps tremendously.

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
3 dogs in the house - setters and JRT. Lots of hair. It is worse when the seasons change as shedding is affected by the amount of light. ( Spring and Fall). Certain carpets hold the hair worse than others. Little hairs appear on your toothbrush, pb lid, etc....

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
I hate to be honest and of you tell her this you might be in trouble.... if you are having a weight loss competition the goal is probably to loose weight and keep it off. If she has a baby she will defeat the purpose of the competition anyway....
The better thing might be to say ok you lost and I win... but if you loose another 40 pounds you can have a baby that I will claim as mine.

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
I would go for the baby. More fun year round and they can always help with the dog later on.
Now onto your question about what breed. We have two Vizslas, a Wirehaired Vizsla and two english pointer pups. All of them are in the house (I need to get the kennel built, to keep my wife happy) All dogs will shed some when they loose their winter coats. The shorthaired dogs seem to be less noticable. Main thing is to have your wife help you pick out a breed and then she will have some buy-in. Good luck

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
She got you, unless she was willing to sign a contract (mine hates it when I talk about contracts with her) that states you are allowed to go get snipped should you win the bet, then she will have a baby whenever she well pleases. If you win she wins, if you lose she wins. Just go buy the dog and tell her you'd like to try and time the baby's birth to not screw up your hunting. I have studied this and 99% of girls were put on this earth for two things: planning their wedding and having babies.
Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
The only way to get a dog that doesn't shed is to make sure the dog is the same color as the rug and furniture.'

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
I don't know bout y'all but to me keepin a wife happy all the time is like huntin wild pheasants with a stick and a stone. Sure its possible but darn if it aint hard work. My dad used to tell me that when momma wasn't happy over somethin.

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
I lived with a lab in the past... the only thing that Sheds worse is my folks Golden Retreiver - ChowChow mix. Wow!
I dont do much crazy cold big water duck hunting. More small marsh type setups.
The breeds I am looking at are:
Viszla
GSP
Pudelpointer
WPG
Small Munsterlander
Braque de Bourbanis
My wife thinks Vizsla's and Solid Liver GSP's are good looking dogs. So they probably are ahead in the race a little. I love what I hear about the Pudelointer. There is a very nice WPG breeder down the road from me that I have met with. They seem like great family dogs. I have not met a SM or BdB yet and would like to. But all four of those breeds seem to be worth their weight in gold, and I just dont have that much gold

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
With the WPG and PP on the list, you need to add the GWP/ DD as well. Any of them will do for you perhaps some with the addition of a neoprene vest in colder weather.
My wife felt the same about solid-coat dogs. Now, she's into patches and ticks. Being open in that area will make things easier for you.
My recommendation is to look for pups from a well-proven litter with the temperament that you want. I like a high energy dog...a lot of people can't take them. A lot of that is an honest evaluation of how much real exercise you can give them. Walking them on a leash is not real exercise. Running them off an ATV or having them pull you on a dog scooter is real exercise.
Speaking of that, time to go exercise a pup.

All, do the Pudelpointers shed? I believe I also read that they do well as a versatile hunter.

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
I've seen several and it didn't appear that body type and coat were fixed. Some more wiry and less shedding, some less wiry and more shedding.
BTW, you have a sister to my Shooter. She's nice looking!

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
Why not just leave her. You don't have to have a baby and you don't have to worry about getting a dog. You win both ways. It's just a joke, just a joke! I have 4 children and 5 shorthairs in the house, and a wife. She actually treats our dogs as well as our kids. It is much easier to clean up after the dogs than the kids. I've always had shorthairs and until they multiplied, minimal amount of hair in the house. That was a big concern for me as I didn't want to go to the office with hairs all over me. I have never had to and still don't have to use those masking tape lint rollers to clean my pants before I go to work. My advice, both lose weight, call it a draw, have a baby and get a dog!

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
Braque de Bourbanis would be an excellent choice very nice dogs with lots of Natural ability, and as far as picking one just bring one home that you like she'll love it no matter what it looks like, I've been married almost 8 yrs and I've only asked 1 time if i could get a dog learned my lesson on that one. IMO the wife/kids (future kids?) should never be involved in picking a bird dog puppy cause no one can ever agree which pup to pick so I'd say find a breed/breeding you like meet the parents pick your pup and bring it home.

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
You should try and time it right, like others said so that it doesn't interfere with hunting season.
More seriously though the spacing of the baby and a puppy can be somewhat challenging. I got my PP when my youngest was 6 months old and eldest was 2 1/2. It was INSANE to say the least. I'm suprised that my wife didn't shoot either me, the dog or both. If I had to do it over I would do it differently. My wife was under enough strain from the baby and the older one, and throwing an extremely high energy, bold, chew everything in sight, goon the kids at every chance puppy into the mix caused more than a small degree of turmoil at home on occasion. If I did it again, I would either 1) wait until the youngest was eighteen months or 2) get the puppy a year to eighteen months before the baby was born, to get some OB, structure and controls in place before the baby came into the house. A hunting bred puppy has enormous amounts of energy, and as a puppy they don't realize how large or hazardous they can be at times.

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
Silly man....you'll NEVER win an argument with a woman!
Get the pup....wait 6 months or so....then start trying for the baby. By all means, practice until then....a LOT of practice ....just to make sure you've got it right.
(That way you will have a little over a year to train and get the puppy settled down to be in a home with a new baby.)
If she wants a baby....she's going to win. Simple as that. Try to plan the conception so the delivery comes at a good time.
Oh, likely the delivery will come at the worst time...but try to plan for it to happen at the right time, anyway.
This will also give her incentive to keep going with the weight loss program....a healthy mom will make for a better litter of humans. Be sure she starts taking Folic Acid as soon as you start to try to conceive.
So, congrats....you *won* the argument/contest.....enjoy your puppy, and a nice duck theme will look great in the baby's room.

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
Similar discussion going on in my household right now although I have a 16 month old shorthair right now. I really don't think I will "win" this argument/debate. Seems more realistic to spread out getting another dog for a year or two so they don't grow old at the same time.

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
A working poodle won't shed....just sayin'.
I have an english pointer and a GSP and a Vizsla in the house. They all shed like crazy - less so if they are fed a good food.

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
Honestly, forget about her happiness. Even when you think you've done good, your still wrong. Since I am only on her poop list on the days that end in Y, I just wake up every morning and say I'm sorry. Nothing in particular, just starting her day off right. In the back of my mind, I know kona has chewed something up and we just haven't found it yet.
We have a boxer and an EP as full time live in's. EP will be making a trasition to the Kennel soon for momma's sanity and my health. I add a little olive oil to there food and it seems to help with the shedding. Not near as much shedding as before.

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
I was able to talk my girlfriend into getting a dog because she thought vizsla puppies were cute. A common trait of vizsla's and one of our main reasons for us getting one is because they don't shed much. I wouldn't think they would be that great at duck hunting, but they are awesome pheasant dogs. I like viszla's for pheasant because they are close working dogs and wont spook the pheasant 300 yards in front of me. That said my next dog will probably be a puddlepointer. Like the viszla they are not supposed to shed too much. I guess that comes from the poodle side. I would think the PP might have the advantage in duck hunting as well. Someone else mentioned a DD. Those dogs will hunt anything...awesome dogs. Might come home with the neighborhood cats though. If you can deal with a GSP's shedding, then they are a staple bird dog and can't really go wrong there.

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
Man, I must just be a lucky SOB, my GSP's really don't leave that much hair in the house. I've heard about winter coats, summer sheds, I don't see any of it. I went with a GSP because I didn't want a shedding dog. Now I have 5 in the house. We're 10 below in the winter and 90 most of this summer. We don't bath them more than once a month. They are great swimmers and they do go in the pool on their own. Iams mini chunks and no supplements. Just lucky I guess.

I missed that post by Redfish. Kinda glad I did....but you caught it. I must know only the other 1% of the women since none that I know are or were obsessed with weddings or children. I guess dog/hunting women must be that rare percentage. Most I know are much more interested in important things in life (vs. the wedding).
That post is like saying 99% of the men I know were put on earth for two things, changing the oil in the truck and taking out the trash. Or maybe it's drinking beer and farting.. ....

Re: Trying to keep my wife happy
SEE your wife knew you could multi task AND do things individually so she scooped you up ..my husband on the other hand cant multi task while ignoring distractions so maybe he needs some Ritalin too , he was mowing the lawn and i was staining the deck in my bathing suit top and cut offs, he ran over my flowers and blamed me for distracting him .....ruthdoco wrote:Heck as the Poster child for ADD, ADHD, OCD, and Ritalin, not only can I do all of those at once, I can actually focus and do each of them singly. It is quite difficult for me, but if I try really hard, I can ignore the distractions .GUNDOGS wrote:a multi tasker, now that would be a keeper ...ruthMeller wrote:Shoot a man can drink beer and fart while chainging the oil or taking out the trash!
