I have Mearns eggs starting to come now,problem with Mearns there is so much interbredding in them the fertility is really low! Need new blood!

I guess it is easier said then done. Getting on a plane and flying almost 2800 miles is not really a thing I can do with work at the moment or I would! I would to see what she really can do and is getting the training like we agreed upon..I myself do not not think that 4 day a week thing is happenin...

Again a fault of my own as this person is on the west cost I bought this setter from a pro trainer as started and asked if he would finish her out so much a month etc..he knew what I wanted and I knew the cost per month...But being a pro and having setters that won top rank field trials and asking a...

I think I will not send her to summer camp again and know of a trainer in my state,,,The bad thing is if I said the trainers name on here I bet 98% of you know him or heard of him.....He came with high standards...Maybe other things on his mind!! Im sure just really let down...I was told the setter ...

I bought the setter out West .....Started of course this is where I may have went wrong believed the person....Agreed to finish the setter to my so called standards...kennel,load, force fetch etc steadt to wing and shot as I call it ...Honor...I wanted to run trials but then later after the dog was ...

Young Mountain Quail

Thanks for all the help!! I dont mind paying top dollar!! I wanted her to be as perfect as can be to do AKC Hunt Test!

Im sure horseback is great! But where I live they do not do that! Its more for Ruff Grouse and Woodcock Hunting!

Well the thing is Im on one side of the Untied States and He is on the other!!...First mistake maybe!! The dog already has been to one summer camp as pup 9 months or so!! Also I am the one that always has to make contact to see the progress or ask about it!! A few pics here and there but not much sa...

I wanted to run trials...Etc....He already told me she would not be able to keep up with the other dogs just make a excellent bird dog! He also stated that she would be ok for maybe AKC Hunt Test!! I have had setters and trained myself and thinking I may have made a mistake now having one trained or...

Mexican Bobwhite Hen

So far it has been 5 months...And now they want to take her to summer camp for additional $$$ and be back late Sept!! From A well know trainer but will not say the name or make comments about this person!

I know there are alot of factors that play into this so....with that being said if I had a setter 2 years old and wanted her finished steady to wing and shot force fetch to retrieve, whoa broke, honors etc..I guess you can say the works....what should one think the total bill to train a setter to do...

Yes the Ladys are nice just like the Red Goldens Silvers etc.....Although the True Pheasants are so much more rare, then the reg ornamentals! I like all birds!....
