Good pics.

Trapper

Excellent paintings. I love them. Do you sell them? Do you reproduce photos?

Trapper

I have a handmade bell specifiacally for dogs. I am in the process of recreating it. Need to find a brass suplier

Trapper

I am going to try plucking for the first time on grouse. If I get one.

Trapper

Definitely my favorite training book.

Trapper

I love Britt pups. Great shots.

Trapper

I'd buy one just to support the forum.

Trapper

I wrote an article about it on my blog if you want to check it out. But to summarize... * Choose a reputable breeder. * If possible, research and select a superior pedigree. * Choose which sex you would prefer. * Visit the pups between 5 and 7 weeks old. * Observe temperament, avoid overly aggressiv...

I've only trained my own dogs.

Trapper

Nice pics. Keep them coming. I hope to get out for woodcock tomorrow

Trapper

You're suppose to bathe a dog?

Trapper

OMG. I want another one. Very cute!

Trapper

Perfect use of the buddy stick.

Trapper

What a cutie. Congrats.

Trapper

You finally got the hang of posting pics. Nice puppy.

Trapper

Thanks. I will begin to train her to come on tone.

Trapper

Well the title of the thread say's brittany puppy pics. I don't know if you meant just yours, Will, but I will add.

Trapper

Welcome. I'm pretty new and I find this forum a wealth of information.

Trapper

Glad he's ok. I am forever cleaning out the dogs eyes of seeds and such, but have never found a thorn in there. I did pull one out of Brook's foot that went up between her toes and out the other side. I have also seen her stop in mid run, reach down with her mouth and pull on out of her foot and con...

I just purchased the Sport Dog 2400 and it has a tone button. Any insight on what this feature can be used for?

Trapper

Great looking pup. My 12 year old Brittany always shakes when she slept and sometimes when she's awake.

Trapper

Stick with gundogforum.com it is a great domain. .us , not so much. IMO

Trapper

I think Canadian Tire has pretty affordable decoys ($10 - $15). Just get two of three every year and in a few years you could have a nice spread.

Trapper

I have added my marker. I am now the most easterly member.

Trapper

You gotta love brittany puppies. Good luck with the pup.

Trapper

I would say if your current dogs have not shown any real agression to other dogs in the past, then it shouldn't be a problem.

Trapper

My 11 year old brit has done it on occasion for years. I think if it's not happening all the time , I wouldn't worry about it. Brook only does it if she's lying around washing herself.

Trapper

Welcome to the forum and more importantly, welcome to the sport. A lot of people here would suggest you get a started dog first and I would agree where you have never hunted before. I would definitely try to find someone who hunts with dogs and follow them around for a while to see how it is done an...

If you don't mind me asking, how much does a trip to a pro that long cost?

Trapper

Pro Plan C&R. Nice firm small poops. And Jazz says the poop even tastes great. *barf*

I just saw a Pro Hunter 2400 in the Bargain Flyer for $200 CND (about $180 US) new in the box. I think I'll grab it.

Trapper

Thanks for having us. And you are linked.

Trapper

I recently wrote a blog articleon this which pretty well echos what has been said in this thread.

Trapper

I attended a training seminar by hall of fame trainer Buddy Smith and he explained the really cool training tool called the Buddy Stick. I just posted an article about it on my blog, if you want to check it out. www.PointFlushRetrieve.com . Feel free to leave comments.

Trapper

Welcome and the only stupid question is the one you didn't ask.

Trapper

Easy answer here...don't go deer hunting. Can't imagine why anyone would give up a good weekend of bird hunting with thier friends (two legged and four legged) to go sit in the woods with a bunch of yahoos that shoot at anything that moves. I always enjoy going to another state to chase birds when ...

Trapper

Does the dog chew on you if you are playing with it? If so, start driving your hand down its throat (to an extent) whenever it gets ahold of your hand.

Trapper

If you are wary about the e-collar for the counter surfing, I might suggest throwing a magazine at him when he goes for the prize. The fluttering action and noise will scare him. Another good thing about this is, you can later use the magazine in your hand to discourage other behavior such as jumpin...

Trapper

I think I would be worried about the issues that may arise WRT the dogs main purpose and that's finding birds. It may create off game chasing problems.

Makes sense.

Trapper

Great pics, thanks for sharing.

Trapper

Am I allowed to say medium?

I like the dog to cover some ground but I also like to watch a dog work. 400 yards is pushing it for me.

Trapper

Great shots.

Trapper

My Brittany was/is a bootlicker last fall. This spring and summer I have noticed her casting out a lot further. I think once they realise that they won't find any birds on the heel, they will range.

Trapper

Congrats to both of you.

Trapper

Thank you. I am working on an article about top notch trainer Buddy Smith and the Buddy Stick. I attended a seminar by him last summer and he has developed a really neat tool for training.

Trapper

Thanks trapper i will try that and see if it works.And original mngsp maybe i will cut his tail off and maybe he wouild get smarter. If it is the pup in your avatar, then maybe cutting his tail off will help, he is the right colour. Needs some feathery hair on its legs and chest too, though. :wink:...

Trapper

I the area he sleeps, is there room for him to poop in one area and move and lie in another? Perhaps he does this and later forgets about it and lies in it. I was always told to have just enough room for him to lie down and not an inch more.
