Ceige209, I have been many time to this clubs events: http://sandhillspointingbreedsclub.org/ There are many good people there. The Carolina NAVHDA Chapter is an awesome chapter to join. I am a member with this group. They normally have official training days once per month in NC and once per month ...

Unbiased: Free from bias. especially: free from all prejudice and favoritism. That is from Webster's Dictionary. Not trying to start a hassle, Howie has nice dogs. But when you say you have bred for fifty years to get the dogs you like you are biased. Just don't see what the fact that they are prov...

The best advice you've been given is to find a person who hunts the heck out of his dogs on the game you plan to hunt in the country you plan to hunt and buy the pup you like best from that litter. Where NAVHDA lines, true NAVHDA lines, are proven in the testing arena, that means a hair more than a...

With pointers, there are several different gaits that you might see. The first common gait is where the dog runs and its motion is a bit like a rocking horse...up and down. This is not the most efficient gait as the up and down motion is wasteful of energy. However it is a relatively smooth gait an...

Beautiful dog!

He did say he was looking for a unbiased opinion. Jerry, i feel my opinion is unbiased. Howie owning and training GSP's for almost 50 years and having early dogs out of Tell, Boss Ranger , Moesguaards Dee Jackson , Flying Dutchman, Rusty etc. The NAVHDA bred dogs for Howie fit what he likes today ....

Yes, this is the female I am working from the JJ X Briar litter. She is doing very nicely at this time.

Never had a dog yet that I couldn't get in the water. Some take a bit of introduction. Maybe all. Saw a lot of NAVHDA dogs that had to be introduced to water, just like any other dog. +1 Get them going as puppies, when the world is their oyster, as far as learning and accepting new things. +2. I be...

CJ, I understand your reasoning and post, I have owned pups from the majority of the various popular bloodlines and occasionally one may be a little different from its parents. However, I have found choosing a pup from the chosen testing or trial venue that has succeeded will greatly increase your o...

Lance, nice looking pup!

I used the Dogtra for 8 years now with great luck so far. However, if not charged regularly, the rechargable batteries will go bad.
I believe the DT units carry a good name.

Good Luck

With quail, it 'a real easy to load multiple birds in a Higgins Releaser. I load3 sometimes 4 at one time. The way I do it is to hold the quail upside down with their legs and feet between my fingers. I then gentle lay all birds in at once with that hand and close the door with the other. I imagine ...

Mo Lindley will have a seminar coming up in the near future . If you google Pineyrun Kennels you should be able to find the info on the website.
I believe the seminar will be in VA.

Good Luck!

I purchased a 20 ga SKB 280 SxS many years back. It is by far my favorite gun of all time. It is light, durable and easy to shoot.

Just Call Me Roy was a legend of a dog. I have spoken with his owner as well as his trainer in the past. Both said he was truly a special dog. I am told he was the real deal, a true bird dog that knew how to find birds and had enough sense to know how far to range depending on the circumstances. To ...

You will find Rusty in the background of many of the successful field trial lines of today

Carolina Gundogs

Lugmastro, good luck in your search. I hope you find what you are looking for. I still believe you could find benefits from joining and participating in local clubs. To be straight forward, you came across not interested in any responses and a little arrogant on top of that. I personally am glad bre...

Carolina Gundogs

Lugmastro, where in NC are you?

I am in SC but close to the NC border

Carolina Gundogs

If you are satisfied with your earlier pup, 6R should be able to match you with a similar pup or at least a simular breeding to give you the best chance possible. I believe the important thing is to watch the parents of a potential pup if possible to make sure they have the characteristics you are s...

Ted, Happy Birthday!

Carolina Gundogs

I have several of the cube houses. I like them but see one weak area with one of my dogs. The aluminum angle they use on the exterior corners is so thin until they can pull and chew it if they try hard. I had read they will replace any part that a dog chews but I have not called yet. On mine, it's i...

In many places, the AKC hunt tests will have higher attendance than the local field trials. Also, the NAVHDA hunt tests are steered toward the versatile dogs and have high attendance . The recent test for the Carolina Chapter had such a large interest until they ran a "double" test and still had mor...

I am included in the group that searches for the best dog food for my dogs as I run them regular and hunt with them as often as possible. I also test and occasionally have a dog to trial. I have led myself to believe that my dogs need a premium dog food. I am good friends with many professional guid...

I am soooo glad they found him. I cringe at the thought of loosing one of mine.

I currently feed Sportmix in the B&W bag. I find my dogs do very well on it so far. I have been feeding it for 1+ years now. I am glad the pro shared their opinion of this dog food with me long ago. I have tried many others and some that I thought were a good buy are: Exceed Chicken and Rice and the...

Great picture!

Maurice Lindley of Lindley Kennels. He is on this forum as Maurice I believe. He is a great great trainer and does a huge amount of mentoring along with Martha Greenlee to help educate others how to train their dogs. He has a training book out named "Training With Mo". Brenda Roe of Walnut Hill Kenn...

I believe YouTube breaks the video down into a smaller resolution when uploaded.
I use a HD Hero 2 and use the recommended setting in their manual. I believe it is 960x30 or something like that.
You will enjoy your new toy!

Carolina Gundogs

It sounds as though the other breeder's pups don't start as quickly as the bloodline you have. The pup I had from the same bloodline as yours was being put down on a professional guide string at a very young age. As long as you are building good habits and only rewarding his points, I would say to k...

Carolina Gundogs

I would recommend you asking Brenda Roe @ Walnut Hill since the Snips line is hers.

Carolina Gundogs

He sure is a sharp looking pup!

Carolina Gundogs

I believe you have been given many very good options to choose from above. However, I do believe you will be the happiest or at least come the closest to finding your "dream come true" dog if you buy a pup off of dogs that have excelled at whatever venues you are interested in participating in with ...

Carolina Gundogs

Andy, that is a sharp looking pup!

Carolina Gundogs

I believe there are several if not many good retriever trainers out there specializing in the water retrievers.
However, Evan Graham's work has proven itself many times over. His series would be the one I would prefer.

Carolina Gundogs

Ward, I believe you can do a search at the top right of the GDF forum screen on this subject. The Garmin allows more detailed mapping of the area you are in if i remember correctly. I purchased the Garmin Astro a few years back and have never regretted it. I only wished I had stopped wasting money o...

Carolina Gundogs

That's a nice dog to own. Plenty of versatility.

Carolina Gundogs

Great job!

Carolina Gundogs

I purchased an SKB 280 20 ga ~ 10 years ago. It has been everything I had hoped for and more. I shoot it better than any other gun I have owned.

Good Luck in your search.

Carolina Gundogs

That looks great!

Carolina Gundogs

Congratulations Tony!

Carolina Gundogs

Wow, you can't ask for much more than that. Sounds like you have an exceptional string of dogs!

Carolina Gundogs

Wow! What a great accomplishment.

Carolina Gundogs

That is great!
You have many great times ahead of you.

Carolina Gundogs

Great looking pup! I believe you will be very happy with him.

Carolina Gundogs

Wow, what a year!

Carolina Gundogs

I look forward to reading good news on her upcoming trials!

Carolina Gundogs

I believe I remember similar posts of recent. You can do a search near the top right. There are some very very nice Brittany breeders to choose from

Carolina Gundogs

I believe we are ~ 4 hours apart. Once you get ready to start training and etc let me know. I will share what info I have about Gundog clubs, preserves and etc.

Carolina Gundogs

Congratulations! I am in NE SC. Where in NC are you? I have a few Brittanys as well.

Carolina Gundogs

That's a nice savings compared to what the Pro plan sells for down here.
