Re: Coyotes and Dogs
A women just last week had her dog snatched off a well used trail just outside of neighboring homes here in Salt Lake. It was a single coyote that took it. They only found the dogs sweater, hours later. Hunting sage grouse one time years ago with my friends wirehair bitch, she disappeared for a spe...

Great Customer Service ...
A buddy bought an expensive to us piece of gear from Gun Dog Supply about 6 months ago. It worked for a month or so and went south. He was beyond the GDS 30 day money back guarantee, so to the mfr he went. Five defective replacements later the mfr told him sorry, done. Last friday we sent GDS an ema...

Re: Bumping or Wild Flush
Ben was trained to run a figure 8 pattern around the hunter to help when you're hunting downwind. (I think the trainer said alot of dogs or maybe alot of setters do it pretty naturally.?) Anyway when the dog quarters out a ways and crosses in front of you he'll hit the downwind scent cone. He'll als...

Re: high brass 7 1/2 for wild chukar/ hydration bag and boots
I use 6's in the first tube, 5's in the second, and 1300 fps or more. I use plated shot, takes less feathers into the meat. I seldom hit the center of the pattern so don't often tear up the meat too bad. :roll:
Great pics! I use a hydration bladder too. Good way to go.

Re: Bumping or Wild Flush
Sounds like your dog is a keeper and you need a new hunting buddy! Dogs don't smell birds if the wind don't get to their nose. They could run right by a bird a foot away and no know it's there on the up wind side. It's the wind that carry's the scent> Exactly what I was thinking. Let your buddy hun...

Thanks Cajun, I think so too. We keep waiting for the bad on this dog but no sign of it yet. He cowers when he's loaded into the rig. He'll figure out soon enough that means fun is on the way! That's about it.

Re: sending dogs to a trainer
It would be hard to send my dog away for 4 months too.

I got to know the trainer pretty well, talked to him most e...
