Does anybody know where I can get a transmitter battery for this model? I called Tri Tronics/Garmin and they said they have been discontinued.

Re: Dog Chiropractor
Just read up some on the iliopsoas pull. The symptoms almost match exactly what I have seen. I have noticed some atrophy in the rear muscle on the right side, as well as discomfort on abduction of the rear leg. I will definitely have to further explore it. Thanks

In my opinion to get into decent pheasant country from Rugby is at least a 2 hour drive. Even a 2 hour drive is a marginal area. To get into the better areas of the state you are looking at 3 hours plus.

You can find some huns and sharpies around there but pheasants are few and far between. If you plan on going during pheasant hunting and want a mixed bag I would hunt the wishek area. Sharptails can get a little jumpy after pheasant season opens if the temps are down.

Put a 20 or 30 ft check cord on her and leave it on her while she is out and about. If when you tell her to come she refuses go grab the cord and give her a good yank and make her come every time. After she has become reliable with that, overlay it with the ecollar.
