Long out of the trial game but still via the web following GSP trials I have a question regarding the status of Dennis Brath as field trial handler for the first family of 21st century GSP field trialling Keith and Bobbi Richardson. Has Dennis stepped down or was he replaced by Mr. Gulledge? Just wo...

ssjetset

Yes I'm serious the guy owns the grounds, don't you think dogs pattern after being trained there daily, also he releases birds to train on cause his land does'nt hold many wild birds . Putting birds out in the same places in likely cover day after day and his dogs will have a huge advantage. Just wa...

ssjetset

The Richardsons should sit this trial out as they have a distinct advantage hosting this trial on their ranch, but given the win at any cost some of these people have it does'nt surprise me, Brath and the Richardsons should be ashamed.

ssjetset

Wow, with all the dogs Richardson has he should place some, he sure has come a long way from when I met him in 98.

Editted for unnecessary negative comments.

When did Brath become such a big time trial handler, I thought Eldon Hongo ran Richardsons string, just wondering. Bill

griffgirl, I feel your pain, hows the snow cover up there?

Griffgirl,you can tell me about your Griff anytime, by the way, I'm heading up Tues. to open my cabin for the year, I know you live in Lena How is the snow cover up there, my place is west of Crivitz 10 miles. Also take a look at uplandjournal .com lots of Wis folks and lots of breeds there, not tha...

anyone know if Mike Kindler is still training dogs at his place in Brownsville Wis? thanks

ssjetset

There is a litter on the ground now in Wis out of shooting starr lines the sire being VC Shooting Starrs Ringo MH, this dog is a half brother of my bitch, you can not go wrong with this line. I live in Milwaukee and have a place in Crivitz where I hunt grouse and woodcock, these dogs are in my opini...

ssjetset

ssjetset

thanks dave.

ssjetset

anyone know who owns this dog, in an add for a litter it says he is in the HOF , would you happen to know which HOF and for what? Thanks Bill

ssjetset

From Steve Kosmicki?

ssjetset

welcome, been in the breed for 30 years, looked at your new pups papers and I can say you did fine, lots of nice dogs in there that I am familiar with, good choice. Bill

ssjetset

welcome, who did you buy your gsp from, what lines?

ssjetset

Thanks, guys.

I see the name Kieth Richardson popping up all the time as host of trials out west, just wondering if this is the same man that was involved in NAVHDA and had a versatile champion finnished by a pro here in Wisconsin? If so when did he start running horseback trials and has he had any success. Thanks

ssjetset

mine in wisconsin is B1RDDGS, feel free to copy it,I'm a gsp guy to but wanted to cover all the bases. Bill

ssjetset

Anyone know how I can get a hold of a Purina jacket the brown nylon type pictured in the pictures that Blue Dawn Kennels posted on this site? A long time very dedicated member of my breed club is about to retire and move away and at his goodbye banquet we would like to present him with a gift of thi...

ssjetset

Sorry, did'nt see your topic till just now, been in GSP's for 30 years now and the puppy choice thing is a crap shoot, I would be very interested in how the parents are and what line does it come from , the pups will develop according to thier genetic make up and thier new enviroment, you can test f...

ssjetset

a lot of the NAVHDA green book methods are used and they are much different than George's methods, what I'm saying is being a newbie the more senior member of the club helping you will want to use thier method no matter what you learned at the Hickox seminar.

ssjetset

A couple thoughts, I like his methods of training, I used his tapes to break a couple of my dogs a few years back and his methods worked great, I take it you plan on taking your griff all the way to a finished dog steady to wing and shot and so on, if so this seminar may be your best bet, if you jus...

ssjetset

My late gsp was on that med for many years and the vet required a 70 dollar blood test every 6 months if I remember corectly, if you can talk your vet into a RX you can send it to Foster and Smith in Wis. but I bet your vet will write it for a couple months with one refill so you are stuck going bac...

ssjetset

Does the Allbreed trial that is about to start have a running order posted somewhere on the net? thanks

ssjetset

The testing venue that was bashed is so small here in the US you would think it was a threat to the big money horseback games the way it was attacked, I'm proud of the way you guys defended your system,one bloated ego know it all should never be allowed to dictate thier own bias with out being chall...

ssjetset

welcome to another wis. resident, I take it your dogs came from Clyde Vetter or the Harmeyers?

ssjetset

Wagonmaster,That mystery woman that claimed Navhda trainers are heavy handed and now has little use for that venue could her dogs now be handled by Eldon Hongo? C'mon John answer, if I'm wrong I'll leave it alone but if I'm correct I'll share what I know about her and her husband, nothing bad, just ...

ssjetset

wagon master, that lady on the dog wagon was she from Wyoming, last name starting with a R?

ssjetset

How about when Joe Sixpack buys out of a trial breeding and loses the thing every time its down?

ssjetset

Versatile,that about says it all, something an allage dog lacks.

ssjetset

DKrick, Don't apologize or take a back seat to anyone with regards to your testing/breeding requirements,at least the german system still understands what these dogs were bred for, you would think that wagon dude would be busy shinning his trophy

ssjetset

gonehuntin ,what part of N.E. wisconsin are you in? Just curious as I have a home in Marrinette county.

ssjetset

go for it, my vet and I sent our last litter home at 6 weeks.

ssjetset

nice job doc, whats your phone number

ssjetset

Devlis creek,did you ever see the likes of Safari,El saus doll or Pork Roll run? What millers dogs have you seen ? I'm a gsp guy but I realize that the best of the best are pointers. The next dog I plan on owning will be a pointer just for a change, as I have had GSP's for almost 30 years I want to ...

ssjetset

more please, very very nice!

ssjetset

nylabones are great, they'll keep his teeth clean, let him have at it just replace it when it gets small.

ssjetset

A few things can be done now,socialize with lots of people and friendly dogs, take your new buddy for runs in the field so he can explore and become familiar with the different smells. Any yard work will come later though you can start some retrieving work by using a hallway that has its doors close...

ssjetset

I love pidgeons for training,you can use them over and over if you tether them and pick them up after each use. Make your self a small brush pile that the bird will feel secure in then tuck the birds head under its wing and rest it on the ground with its but up, use a check cord and work your dog in...

ssjetset

griffgirl, lena,huh? since the bypass is complete are the towns shops suffering or is everyone happy about less traffic?

ssjetset

gsphntr4me, I'm 10 miles west of Crivitz, we can hook up some time next fall and I can share some of my areas with you, I don't get up there as much as I wish I could but when I was able to hunt the bird numbers have increased. Ayres, wolf numbers are on the increase in our county, I have'nt seen an...

ssjetset

I guess we got locked out of our other topic so lets try this, I'm sitting here with an olive branch in my hand offering to host either of you or both of you this next fall to a grouse hunt in NE Wis. We can run your dogs and then mine , no judging ,no bashing , no mine is better than yours, just gu...

Relax dude, I was refering to myself, GEEZ!!

ssjetset

passion, something a newby does'nt understand about gundogs yet, the same passion that makes a person chase those last points for a title rather than attend his kids spring concert or his mother in laws funeral, thanks for the passionate posts folks, learn newbies.

ssjetset

Snips brings up a VERY important question, do they OFA the dogs they breed, don't let this one slide in making your coice.

ssjetset

He'll tell you that the kennel you are researching has no background in NAVHDA and niether does the kennel owner, however many kennel owners in Wis are active in chapters as trainers,breeders and judges. If you want to get into Navhda why not talk to people involved and ask thier opinions?

ssjetset

Ace,at this point I don't care who you buy a dog from, but I see that you are interested in starting a NAVHDA chapter,if you call the navhda office ask Mr. Applegate what he thinks of countryside or for that matter shooting starrs, you will get an education, I gaurantee.

ssjetset

wannabee, please tell him, if I do it they will think I only recognize one kennel,shooting starr but as far as I'm concerned there are at least a dozen better choices in Wis and Northern Ill. Buy what you want, kind of like driving a mini van when you could drive a vette.

ssjetset

Wagonmaster and AHGSP, thanks guys, the only thing this old crippled lonely man has is coming to this public library to go on line and talk about dogs, I guess my opinion of a dog from my past is not wanted here,thanks for clearing more time in my day by taking this away from me to.

ssjetset

Been involved with GSP's for 30 years and the first time I heard of countryside was at a gas station in Belguim on my way up to my cabin, I asked a man with a gsp in his truck next to me where he got his dog from he told me countryside so I looked over her site and some of her pedigrees. Her dogs ma...
