Gun Dog Forum

So I just bought 8 pigeons, they were trapped from a barn about 3 hours south of me. I have a 4x4x6 coop built with a 3x3x1 aviary attached so they can get some fresh air. I have been reading a bunch of the old forums, but I was hoping I could get a few questions answered from some of the savvy vete...

Gave up trying to catch, just bought 8 of them for 6 bucks a piece. Wish I would have just done that to begin with. Built a coop and used my trap as the aviary, at least I finally got some pigeons in it.

Have you had any luck????????????

So has anyone actually caught any pigeons yet? I'm still trying. I moved my trap to the top of the hay elevator, which is located near the top of the barn, inside. I know they, or something has been in there. I've been rebaiting every other day for over a week now leaving the bobs up so they get rea...

I can't catch a pigeon for the life of me..... Not sure why they are still up there. I'm wondering if I should take the trap out of the barn and put it on the ground near the barn, or hang them up in the barn somewhere a little higher so they can find it easier. Really at a lose right now. About tim...

I have 2 traps out right now. The first one I built is 18 inches by 36 by 36. After setting that one up I decided it was bigger than I needed. I have corn and black sunflower seed out. I've had one out for 4 days and the other out for 3. I left the bobs up , which I made out of T shaped plastic piec...

So I decided I wanted to save some money and trap some pigeons to get my GSP started on birds. Built some standard traps with bobs. Know plenty of people that want to get rid of the pigeons in their barns, put the traps out left the bobs up so they can get used to going in and out, only problem is t...

Did you ever get any pigeons????? I am attempting to try and catch some myself. I'm going to copy your trap only put a trap door on the side. Also where did you get your bobs and the piece you hung them from if you don't mind me asking???? I also am not a carpenter, so I'm looking for a little help....

So not to sound like a total newbie, but what exactly does a walking field trial consist of? My wife and I are interested in coming just to see how it works. Also are you aloud to bring your dog if it is not in the competition? Please let me know so we can make plans to hopefully attend. Many Thanks...

Miller Time, or Mr. Miller. Being from Wisconsin it just seemed like it made sense.

My pups eye is clearly bothering him. Their is a slightly noticeable difference between one and the other. I don't think it is anything major, but my wife would like some reassurance especially since it's new years tomorrow and nothing is open. Should we give it a day or two or bring him to the vet?

Thanks a lot guys

Looking for some recommendations on good training dvds. I have a 5 month old GSP. He's been through a 2 week puppy training wroth the next I purchased him from. Very good foundation, I know the basics, keep it fun, don't punish him in the field yet, let him be a pup. Looking to get him started on po...

Hello everyone im Jake. I live in Wisconsin, but spend a lot of time in Florida for work. I have a 5 month old GSP named Miller that travels pretty much everywhere with me. I joined this forum so I could pick the brains of other gun dog owners. I'm new to the game, I've always had a dog, but never o...
