I'd love to come but I'd need a ticket from Ontario. :)

Has anyone noticed common sense isn't very common anymore.

just noticed your post....I live in Larned, not too far from you. Most evenings there are several people that come out to train, as well as planned weekends. I have plenty of wild birds and lots of land to run on. You would be welcome to come out here, and we may be interested in heading out your way, once in awhile. Shoot me a PM if interested. We train both on foot and horseback.

I hope to get into this loop very soon now. Jim - do we need to start planning a cold weather trek west?

Ezzy, it's not just the reading we find difficult. Typing while holding the dictionary to check for misspelled words also slows us down...

Apparently you guys from Kansas haven't gotten the memo yet, that there is this little thing called SPELL CHECK.. Try it sometimes, it's alot easier and lighter than that dictionary..

well, I should have guessed that a few of our training friends would chime in here....Bill, you know that I love having you and your gang here, and as much as I would love to train in your neck of the woods, CA is just a little too far. But maybe if Kevin wants to hire a bus we could work it out. Oh BTW, sorry I didn't return your call the other nite,....I'll get back to ya soon.

Kevin, hope to see your new pups soon.

Basspow, can't remember how long it takes to get to the Springs from here, but it's not a bad trip for a weekend thing. You would be welcome.

Heck, if there are others who would like a training weekend, let's plan one. We host a big training weekend in the fall, no reason that we couldn't do a summer one too. Just let me know

Hey Wingman,

Jim doesn't know it yet but puppy summer camp is likely to start next week, at least for my pup(s). I am taking next week off as vacation and intend to get out to Larned at some time during the week. I also need to schedule a trip to Stockton Missouri next week to spend a couple of days with my dad. Right now, it looks like I will try to head to Jim's after Tuesday (I have a monthly township meeting Tuesday so I know I will be home that day). I'm waiting until I get with Jim to decide which combination of dogs to bring. I am leaning toward taking the two pups so that my wife and Bo can get a full nights sleep while I'm away (she has to work). I'm not sure what the 9 week old pup can do but she can at least see some new surroundings.

If you plan to try to come out some time this summer let me know. I have some more vacation which I have scheduled to take the weeks where a holiday gives us a 3 day weekend plus I think I have some time off around the 4th of July.

It would be fun to throw the pups out together.

Kevin,

I'm eyeballing the week before the 4th of July for a road trip. I'm having an 8 hole topper built by BIttercreek in OKC and it should be ready for me to pick up by then. If Jim remembers to call me back I'll tell him that's when my puppy summer camp starts. The pups will be 4 months old and ready to chase some wild birds around.

Bill,

I think that week coincides with what I have already scheduled to have off. Keep me posted. I will plan on getting out.

I have seen a couple of 4 dog trailers and Ronnies big trailer built by BitterCreeek in person. They appear to be well designed and built for the prices I have seen.

Dang Bill,

I think I'm going to have to dress my pups in some Brown Bag "Unknown Comic" costumes after seeing those pups. I can't believe the similarity in the body markings of the two standing. Beautiful pups...

Bill,

I picked her up a week or two ago. We had a wind storm come through and took the roof of my barn off so I've been busy cleaning up and haven't got any pictures yet. She is pretty plain. Small, white, black nose and dark eyes with no definable markings. I think she may have the most potential of the two though. I had her with me when I went to feed the pigeons and when they started flying she wanted in there with them. I had to restrain her and she had the full body quivers going on. She's also real snappy running around.

Doc has grown to the awkward level where I'm not sure he'll come out of it. He's slow and clumsy right now but he was pretty flashy at 8 - 9 weeks also so hopefully that will return when he grows into his skin.

We will have some fun this summer...
