Along time ago a huntin' friend had a pretty fair vizsla/weim cross that was a VERY good pheasant dog :!: It looked like a viz but was silver like a weim. Now adays, he could of sold it as a designer dog for big money :lol: Along with the huntin' part, it rode in the front of the truck, slept in the...

I use it as a recall. If you blow a whistle or yell to recall a dog while you are hunting wild pheasants---they'll blow out of there before you even get close

:roll: The tone works good as a low volumn recall that only the dog can hear.

Nice picture--good lookin' dog

I agree with Ray. The dogs from the past you know what they produced---there are some past dogs that used to throw good pups with just about any dog they were bred to(alot of them are hall of fame dogs now Rustic Prince, Ban Dee, Bean's Blaze, Joker, etc.). If you breed to one of today's dogs--it mi...

Great answers, I see the nebr club is still meeting on monday nites so I cant make them due to a young lad and school. Do you need to belong to the gsp club to run? dues are only like 20.00 I think. You don't need to be a club member to run in them---just have the dog registered with AKC if you run...

It's possible to get a bad bag of dogfood or for it to grow mold. Start a fresh bag. +1 It's very possible you have a bad bag of food,try a new bag or switch brands. Since Purina switched their puppy chow formula to have higher amounts of fish oil, I have had 3 bags of their food that NONE of my do...

Check cord, Kong for chewing, whistle if he is going to use a whistle, adjustable collar with ID name plate, metal food and water bowls, small retrieving dummy,----there are aways tons of stuff to get for bird dog pups

Doug, I will have a few squekers that can be weaned in a week or so. They are pure blood homers. You can have them to start your flock back up and train to home to your place. Also I have some "show" homers that is a diffrent breed all together, you can have some of them also. They are very heavy b...

I've had my feral pigeons for about 8 months. I started out with 8 and was up to 17 because of young birds being hatched. They have always came back to the coup. The last 3 days they haven't went back inside the coop. They will fly over 4 or 5 times a day but won't re-enter or land on the coop. Ther...

Do you belong to the local brittany club in your area?

Make sure dog is micro-chipped and has a collar with your name and CELL PHONE number on it. Also if you are going to hunt, make sure you take rabies certificate and shot records---some states require dogs to be current in order to hunt. If you are going to hunt, take a first aid kit and a skunk kit(...

Don't use heat lamp. Friends dog knocked it loose and it lite flat on the dog house floor. Friend came home to a blazing dog house---the pen was big enough for his dog to get away from the fire so it ended okay.

You can run both days on a 2 day event so you can get a qualifing score each day. They also run double-doubles, where 2 clubs get together and each runs a hunting test across the road from each other so you can run twice a day for two days and have a chance at 4 quaifing scores for a week end. The b...

The numbers in eastern NE are way way down(in my area about 1/10 what it was last year). If you are thinking about Nebraska, you'd better stick to the SW part of the state this year. Hope you find a good place with birds --- SD or ND would be your best bet :roll:

The clubs in the midwest don't hold hunt test during hunting season because people are hunting their dogs at this time of year--The entries in the tests would be very, very low and most of these clubs can't afford to lose money at their events. There will be plenty of events in the Spring and early ...

Travis--- You might try talking to your local preserves or game farms to see if they have hunting competion.

When I had springers, I used to use a tablespoon of white Karo pancake syrup. It seemed to work pretty good and is fairly cheap

I usually fly the pups on Continental. I've had very good luck with them and they will fly the pups no matter what the temperature is(they keep the pups climatized where ever they are). It runs about $240 to ship a pup. If you want a ground transporter you might talk to Buckeye Dog Hauling(Mary Ann-...

I hunted southwest North Dakota(Bowman area) last week.

If they can't produce a pup out of 2 females in the year you wanted your pup, you should get your deposit back :( On my litters I keep a list of buyers-- I don't ask for a deposit until the pups are born.

You can get a little more knock down by reloading, because you can reload to a higher velocity than what some factory loads have. A normal 2 3/4" 12 gauge 1 1/4 oz lead field load has a velocity of 1330 feet/sec. if you load your own you can use the following componets and get the 1 1/14 oz of lead ...

You won't save much loading small size shot loads, because you can get cheap shells in discount houses for about the same price---your reload will probably have a better pattern, because your reloaded shot is usually harder than what comes in cheap factory(dove + quail, etc.).

Sorry to hear about your huntin' buddy. It is always tough when you lose a good dog. At least you had 15 years of good memories with Buck.

Lol you crack me up. Didn't ask how long you have been in hunt tests or trials. You gave the wrong info and said the collar had to be off.

In stead of leaving this open... the collar can be on. You turn the collar on and leave the receiver off.
