Bob Welhe was convinced that the wing/string gave you a good idea of the dogs natural pointing and backing instinct. I take a whole litter for a walk with a wing and string as soon as they have had there first round of shots, around 6-8 weeks and flip the wing around to see how the whole litter poin...

Yes a slight difference, the wonder lead has a stopper on it to prevent the loop from moving to much and it also has a stopper on the end to prevent the lead from slipping through your hands.

You had to ask didn't ya

Yep that model was developed If I recall correctly by the famous vet and Genetics wonk Leon Whitney, who was employed by the NRSFTC to come up with a elegant way to resurect the irish setter, his advice was to breed back to pure irish for 3 generations after a crossbreeding which essentially homogon...

Have GSPs been crossed with EPs to make them run bigger It has been rumored, but who started the rumor? The one lost the brace? more than likely.

I believe knight sired Millers miss knight who won it once and I think he sired another one two millers white cloud. Not sure but I thought another one as well I will try to look it up.

.......Joe Jr, the greatest of all the Campbells, for he defeated Gladstone on several occasions; but the notable race was run December 15 and 16 1879, when he competed against this greatest exponent of the Duke-Rheobe-Lavaracks in an endurance race and won by a considerable margin. The race was or...

I believe once she figures out that the woods/fields hold BIRDS!...you have the opposite problem):>)....try gettin her into some wild birds and see how that effects her. She may just be getting board on these long walks if your not getting her into birds!

This is pretty normal, just be patient and the wild birds will do a lot of work for you

ymepointer

It is a good one but in some resepcts unconventional...Ferrel has his own way of doing it and it obviously works with his strain of pointers. I would suggest getting it.

ymepointer

I would not remove them at this point, Dew claws are typically removed by AKC folks much more so than AF folks, I guess due to the breed standards for the breeds, but I have had dogs with and without dewclaws. At his age I would not put him through the trouble.

ymepointer

Tommy sounds like you better PM ol' cjuve for the scoop on those IB dogs. I agree with him Torben and Mr. Kelly have been very successful in Region 9 and 10, and 11.....

CJuve, what can you tell us in general about them....Nice style? Cracking Tails, Good bird finder?

Try calling bill Gibbons, eh should be able to put you on some nice ones

If you happen to be passing through coer d aleme, Id or Post Falls Id, The Wolf Lodge has great steaks and the White House Grill is very nice too.

I think it is Ranchone or Ranch 1 kennels but I am not sure

Craig Thompson is who bred one of Torben's dogs...Does have fiddler on top and bottom. Not sure it's as tight on fiddler as you like but it looks good to me

You might check with Torben Hansen, he runs som IB prefix dogs that are I believe fiddler on top and on bottom too.

ymepointer

Time has taught me that the more I study bird dogs the less I feel I know. Range, Style, Pups/adults. You just never know how a pup is going to turn out. To many factors to predict with 100% accuracy.

I have a friend who is a english setter fanatic, and will buy from the best breeders he can find, but he NEVER registers his dogs, He just hunts them. My pointer had a litter back in Aug, and to date only 1 of the 10 pups have been registered to my knowledge.

I have been interested in trying for them for a few years now. Here in Oregon it's a controlled hunt so you have to put in for a tag and cross your fingers. Season limit is two birds.

This little guy just is almost 6 months old, and I weighed and measured him a couple of weeks ago and he was right at 40LBS and about 22 inches at the shoulder.

this is an interesting discssion. I just watched a video Bob Welhe did in 1989, and in it he clearly trains or invites his dogs to greet him by placing their front paws on him while he pets them, and I have always allowed this too, my pointers seem to be inclined to "stand up" on there back legs to ...

Yep I hunt wild birds only in ID and Southeast Wa and Eastern Oregon. Good pointers can handle them, it works much nicer if there is a little snow(which is often the case in late season).
