That is exactly why I gave up golf when I started trialing...good analogy. Then save up for a couple CHs and the fun outweighs what you just paid!

I heard alot during some braces and other braces not much at all. It is fun to go to a trial and keep that in mind as you are watching different handlers. If you can get to a trial with multiple pro handlers (and the top amateurs) watch and listen to them and keep track of their verbal cues through...

aaattta-aaa boooooooyyyyyyy (or giiiirrrrrllllllllllllll) Singing softly enough so they can hear where you are at, puts them at ease to carry on whatever they are doing.

...I just don't see the point in messing with them when they are showing the correct behavior in the field... I realize this is off the OP subject, but I whole-heartedly agree with this - and the key in that statement is "showing the correct behavior". The more we as humans put our hands (and verba...

I would not breed a 18 month old dog regardless of its sex. They are too immature. Don't tell the EP/ES field trial world that. ;) Young males are bred a lot. Breeders want to know what they got and they may not want to wait around 2-3 years to see if he is a producer. Not a big deal for the male. ...
