Wife found 9 greys while checking the mail yesterday so I went out to my "hot spot" only found about 25. Just starting here I think.

Still just fun running with her. She loves chasing killdeer in the feild behind the house. Just spending time walking different ways she is, to keep her used to hunting with me. Been going real well. Will have to get some fresh pics up soon.

twofeathers

Bad Q. Mamma still happy in the house?

twofeathers

It should be fine.

twofeathers

Thats too bad Mark I was even interested for you.

twofeathers

Always a pleasure.. Thanks

twofeathers

You are a true artist.... I have taken hundreds of pics and deleted hundreds of pics KUDOS.......

The webbed feet feet help them climb trees when they get board waiting in the blind... I'm not saying a dog has done this just lol. As for the lab cross: I think this was done after the pointer strictly to bring the traditional color back into the breed. :D Don't you have a shih tzu to comb out or ...

twofeathers

Awesome, congrats!!!!

twofeathers

I think that was a fairly rude way to approach newer posters. Unless of course they actually were kidding. This forum seems to have gone awry latley. Sorry, but I don't want any feed back to that as I to am a newbie trying to learn more every time I visit. I guess I just want to impress, be a little...

I think it would be cool to show eachother maps of runs like the one above. Or would that turn into something bad?
Anyway very cool function what all do I need to buy to do that? Memory card, map pack?

twofeathers

Very cool, thanks! Interesting the run the dog made pretty straight lines or was that just the areas you were walking with the dog?

twofeathers

Looking good Mark, nice to see Pevo, looks a lot like my Pull. Glad it's finally nice enough to want to be outside more often. Janie is having a blast chasing after the "killdeer" I think they are called and sparrows I really need to get some more pics. Thanks for sharing.

twofeathers

It says the collar will hold a charge for 17 -36 hours. If I only used it for two and wait two days to use it again will it be too weak? Should I charge every outing? Just wondering if that will make the battery weak.

twofeathers

Finally got myself a Garmin for the dog. Pull has always had a shock collar on before and has had the same one since he was a pup. Just seeing me with that collar in hand gets him all kinds of excited. Yesterday we went out for a walk but this time a whole different collar. I put the DC30 on him and...

twofeathers

Congrats, that's a fine looking pup there.

twofeathers

?????? Really, on puppies, c'mon your avatar with its 12:00 tail? :roll:

twofeathers

Watched Janie hold a point for about 5min this morning on a squirrel it was pretty intense and can't wait for her to get some bird action. Weather is starting to be a little better accept for the days I have off lately. :roll: Good luck with the new pup that litter did look like some nice dogs. You ...

twofeathers

Great looking pup. Where did you finally decide to get her from?

twofeathers

I took my Australian Sheppard with me squirrel hunting many times. It can be very effective as they will get just high enough to get away from the dog and sit there barking at the dog paying almost no attention to you. I only hunt squirrels with a .22 so never had problems with dog being gunshy one ...

twofeathers

I'm going with Lucky 7. Do I get one if I win?

twofeathers

Sounded like a fun day. Thanks for sharing.

twofeathers

If you have not done anything yet I could talk to my dad he may still have a tumbler. He is a taxidermist and knife maker in Toronto Ia. I believe he sends his hides out now but used to tumble his own, I'll ask. Also wondering if, since you were using it for scent tracking you want to add any extra ...

I was my Dads best Birddog for many years does that mean I have a good nose?

What I mean is... all of these things you argue are disputable we all should recognize that, Plus I got tired of being the dog

CONGRADULATIONS LARUE..... To everyone else.... Sorry, maybe I'm too poor to comment. I think Ezzy actually brings up a good point............ Ha Ha point... Before I comment, I am younger than most only 32. Started my family at 17 been around hunting dogs since diapers. I have been reading some of ...

twofeathers

What do you think about buying used? I've seen A-220 and 2-3 dc-30 collars for $350-$400. Bad idea? Not here by the way.

twofeathers

Thinking of getting the gps for the dogs. Was wondering if anyone wanted to share any thoughts or ideas such as......... Where is the best place to buy it ( customer service and such)\ Where is the best price What model to get What you wish you would have or not have done if you own one now. I also ...

twofeathers

I usually go with the two hours before and two hours after theory. Water and a beneful snack or two out in the field. Pull usually doesn't want the first snack or water but will also as wems stated enjoy some chocolate kix cereal left behind. Not to mention finding himself some cologne to roll in. :...

PM sent

Just an update...........both dogs went to vet and are now back home and are expected a full recovery. The owner even stopped back by and gave a reward.

twofeathers

So my wife made a grown man cry today............. I work 3rd shift and sleep during the day so todays events had little to do with me but I thought I'd share this with you all. Today my wife noticed two dogs all skin and bone walking down our gravel road. The way she explained them to me I believe ...

twofeathers

Thanks for all the advise. I must say a special thanks to Fay Walker for sending me the diagram to follow so that the tail tend to stick up. It really helped.

Is that anything you could share?

Possum.........gotta love versatile dogs. That out at LN? Ran Pull twice last week near the house no birds..... went rabbit hunting with a friend near the house today and his beagles bumped three roosters in the woods.................found where they are hiding :wink: :wink: :wink: Sounds like we ar...

I think my opinion on a dogs range would change if I could afford a gps unit. In the thick cover and grass taller than you that I hunt, a 600yd dog would not only be worthless but more than likely lost. On the other hand if in this thick cover where I hunt, I knew exactly where that 600yd. dog was w...

twofeathers

What is the time restriction to register before price goes up?

twofeathers

Sure glad to see that. I have used Sportdog equipment for a while with no issues. Please start the price wars now!

The mammals and birds that may be eaten must be slaughtered in accordance with Jewish law. (Deut. 12:21). We may not eat animals that died of natural causes (Deut. 14:21) or that were killed by other animals. In addition, the animal must have no disease or flaws in the organs at the time of slaught...

TOO FUNNY WEMS. Thanks for the laugh.

twofeathers

It's possible but not probable that he got into any dead animals.He stays in the house and When he is outside other than in the kennel he is with me running around. Having said that I always wonder what the heck he may have gotten into even in the house. He loves to eat tissues and god only knows w...

I was about to post the same thing my dog ate a mole this summer and next two mornings did exactly as the OP.

twofeathers

I think two 2X4's will get the dog used to 2x4's and steel pans will get the pup used to steel pans and that is about all. I have had zero problems starting with a shot gun when we have the pups out running. Many times are shooting over them on the second trip. For that first experience just make s...

twofeathers

We used two 2x4's about 8 to 10 inches in length with some home made straps "off an old backpack" that were stapled on the sides. When the dogs were fed would clap them together a couple times while they were eating. You can start light and actually get it loud enough it rings your ears. We lived in...

twofeathers

Thanks for sharing that pic. Made me think of my dad and some very similar pictures he has of me.

twofeathers

E-collar, CC and birds. While I can see a professional trainer, training multiple dogs in a short period of time may need the toys. Training my own I have time on my side. I think some of the best training for a young dog are the birds themselves. Even dragonflies ended up being a training "tool" as...

We have a cat in the house and after a few "no's" and "leave it's" things got better. My avatar dog will now only chase the cat if it gets up on the table or counter as he has heard all of us yell at the cat for this also. Our newer pup just wanted to lick the cat and play with it some then she leav...

twofeathers

I feed Black Gold to a puppy and a two year old GSP. Very happy with it.

twofeathers

You may want to contact Iowa DNR to be on the safe side. Here's what my thoughts are, during season bag limits apply while training also. That is if you are going to shoot them un-banded.After season you can purchase bands from the Iowa DNR to put on your birds and use for training. I had to do this...

twofeathers

Let the pup pick you. Or just get two.

twofeathers

Might try setting up your trail cam? Could be easier to find out how to solve if you knew how to approach the problem...........by the way sorry to hear that.
