Believe it or not Cabelas had the best price a couple months back when I got mine. I wish I checked there first before I bought mine.

Not me personally but as part of the GSP crowd. My post said we not I.

remmy

There is some truth to this statement. Breed bias and politics do exist. Argue all you want. It's not all judges but a good number of them. We GSP owners see it first hand running in small pointer trials. Imagine Ames! Why should we bother if we cant get past the smaller trials? I know some guys ha...

remmy

Like I said...not all judges. I'm not making excuses because I Just recently started running my dogs in us complete against pointers and have been accepted well. So I'm not making excuses. For crying out loud there are biases toward certain handlers out here.

remmy

The hardest part of winning at Ames for a non pointer is the breed bias. And what basis do you have for making that statement? There has never been a dog run other than Setter and Pointer so...... The setters can't win it because of breed bias? This is the most common "loser" statement there is in ...

Just heard Hayley Killiam got winner and runner up in ASD! Don't know which dogs got what. Congrats to the Killiams.

My 9 yr old bitch has gotten so bad that I give her a bowl of food but won't eat it right away. She would go outside and rather eat poop instead.

remmy

Congrats to the Richardsons and Dennis. I'm glad this event was a big success. Good job everyone.

One of the posts above shows the handlers.

I am having the same problem where I just moved to...the middle of woods also. I use Adams on the dogs themselves and works great. My question, which is the same as Karen, is what can I treat the yard with...not the dog.

remmy

Since when is bloat been considered a generic trait? Doctors have no clue what causes bloat no evidence proving it is genetic.

remmy

Doc, I'm sorry to keep disagreeing with you but what you said about 5-7 yr olds not being FC and dogs not titled shouldn't compete. First of all, like I said earlier, if the dog can't run the hour it should not be there. Do you think a lot of handlers will waste their time if they know their dog won...

remmy

Doc, as I stated before, a dog can only earn Grand Champion points if it is already FC or AFC titled. Otherwise, a dog that is not yet titled that wins a Grand Champion stake has its points awarded toward their FC or AFC only.

remmy

I like the idea. Yes any dog can run but you know the dogs sort themselves out in the hour. I wouldn't worry about non-titled dogs being allowed to enter. They need to be able to run the hour and a lot of dogs can't. If a handler just enters their dog for the heck of it then thanks for the entry fee...

Because it is unknown what causes bloat there is no prevention. You can take precaution and not exercise a dog a couple of hours before and after eating, don't feed or water from a raised bowl. With both of my dogs they ate the night before and bloated first thing in the morning. So food was not the...

remmy

I lost a dog to bloat 6 yrs ago. Similar breeding way back in pedigree. It is uncertain that genetics even plays a part, according to the Vet who performed the surgery.

remmy

The classic signs of bloat are restlessness and pacing, salivation, retching, unproductive attempts to vomit, and enlargement of the abdomen. The dog may whine or groan when you press on his belly. Thumping the abdomen produces a hollow sound. If the abdomen is swelling already its starting to get b...

First the wild bird championships are cancelled earlier this year...no one's fault. Then, Mac pulls a muscle in his leg and have to pull him from Great Lakes and Ohio. Now, he is down in Wye Island ready for the Pheasant and he bloated! Dan Dimambro rushed him to the emergency hospital where they re...

remmy

The Pheasant is on! It will start on Nov 13 with OAA, followed by OSD and ending with ASD on the 17th and 18th. The Derby will run somewhere in between.

The Pheasant is on. It will start Nov 13 with OAA, followed by OSD and last ASD on that weekend. The Derby will run some time in between.

Thanks for posting. I'll try to update everyone once the State of MD approves the dates.

Wow! Wouldn't you know it this is what exactly happened to my dog this morning in Eureka. That stinks! Dan said he was doing a really nice job until then at 46 min! Dan? Dan who? That is the pits when something like that happens. Negative judging, nothing else. Dan Dimambro, my trainer. No comment ...

remmy

I think it would depend on the wind. If the dog is down wind and getting birdy then bumps the bird, then pick the dog up. If the dog doesn't scent the bird and happens to cause it to flush and stops to flush I would keep the dog down. There is too much negative judging going on lately it really upse...

remmy

As of now we are. We will see what destruction, if any, to the grounds after the storm.

remmy

Sorry to bring an old post back. Actually, some pros I know we're told by a purina rep that it is best to feed the dog twice a day and within one hour after exercise to replace glycogen...once their breathing returns to normal. I too, have lost a dog to bloat. He was only 1 1/2 yrs old and did not e...

remmy

Congrats to all. Nice job.

remmy

This is the first year I have a dog entered in OGD and that was a big concern for me too knowing Dan has to make it to Wye Island also. Luckily we drew 14th brace.

remmy

Congrats to all so far. AA is next. OGD is last.

remmy

This event usually takes bout 3 weeks to complete. That was the winner of AGD. futurity probably starts today.

remmy

I'll be there sat and sun only for the ASD.

remmy

Congrats Joe! I like that little bitch of yours! Congrats to everyone else that won.

remmy

Neither have I. My comment was sarcasm. Sorry. Although, wishful thinking.

remmy

I hope my pup's tail grows as she gets older since the vet butchered her tail!

remmy

I am very excited as this is the first time I have a dog running at Eureka. Mac is being run by Dan Dimambro. On a side note, Dan just finished Mac this weekend at the Fort Dearborn GSP trial! He is now a FC!

remmy

With all the championships being cancelled in MT and NE, I was just wondering how the conditions are in Eureka. Although it is a couple of months off it will be here before we know it.

1. Hazel's RAVEN

2. Schmeider's DOLPH

3. Paretti's MILEY

4. Nicholson's GRETA

remmy

Heard Dennis Hazel won it with Raven! Congrats! Nice guy with a nice dog.

remmy

I'm not disagreeing. Sit is the last command my dogs learn as well. Just saying, I have worked with plenty of dogs that sat on point/whoa and were never trained to sit. That's why I question the theory. I still follow it anyway though.

remmy

JMO, I just don't believe it. The reason is that a dog knows how to sit, just not on command. Therefore, if a dog sits on point I don't think it's because it was trained to sit but rather a default position...maybe too much pressure or confusion like mentioned above.
