Re: I thought it was about the dogs

I've always felt it was an obligation to the dog to get it out in the sage or wherever to let them run and find birds. If you are going to own a bird dog you owe it that. To do what it was bred to do. Trying to put a percentage on who its for is tough. When my dog is flowing through the sage smooth ...

Many years ago when my kids started training and competeing with dogs both in the ring and obedience. We took classes from probably 15 different trainers. A few for breed ring, most for obedience.

Re: Pinch (prong) collar, choke chain, or....??

Check the Higgins video. Gentle but effective. No clue why it gets their attention when a choke chain doesn't but it works for me. Mine would pull and gag all at the same time. Tried the Higgins method. In 30 seconds we had a loose lead and looking at me to see where I was going.

Had a standard dachshund. If I walked towards my farm truck that thing would come running.
He would jump and hit the back bumper shoot straight up. Hook the top of the tailgate with

The wild roosters have been tough to get near this last month. I'll have to swing in and see what it's all about after the season.
7 month old pup. I'm thinking she would really enjoy a day or two over there. With the membership that first trip is a little costly.
