My experience is the higher the protein and fat content in the food = more odoriferous pups.

Tell us where you are willing to travel to for birds and we can give you some ideas.
Here in WNC we have a few grouse, and zero quail, but for any amount of volume hunting it is either a long trip to the Midwest or a short trip to a preserve.

I have used for the past several years Frontline Plus on my Britts.
But last year it didn't seem to have much effect on the flea population.
I treat the ground where the dogs are but the Frontline didn't seem to help.
What works for you guys?
