Not sure how old it is Tim, but I know I had some issues with my DT launcher, same thing new batteries and it ended up being the actuator that pushes the arm to release the trap.....Mine has been good ever since

Illinois is to broke to have it's own page on here..................

I'll give you my opinion on this..... Sure is hard to diagnose the dog in not ever seeing him, but at 2 yrs old he is no puppy, to me it sounds as if he was allowed to develop what he is doing...which is fine if that is what you want. Unfortunately it does not sound like that is what you want him to...

I built me a UDS and it cost more for the beer my brother and I drank than it did for the whole project, thats no lie......the UDS is IMO one of the easiest, most efficient smokers to start with and maintain 250 degrees for hours and hours and hours on one load of charcoal, not a lot of tending to a...

Well I would say for what you are going to use it for and my guess would be to local fairs around your beautiful countryside down there, and a few animals not a herd of them. If it says Triton V8 in a 250 then it's a 5.4 liter. If it has lock out hubs I would check them and drive it with them locked...

Hook was one FINE animal!! A winner almost every time down. Slept on the bed, when you'd let him. He produced many FC's. Not sure how many.Very well bred. Bob knows what he's doing when it comes to breeding GSP's. Doug How many Fc's Doug? I only know of one maybe 2, just curious................... ...

So I was at my local IFA, and I came across a feed that I am interested in for my dog's. It's Enhance Hunter's Edge Basic's, its a 24-18 and it was 32 bucks for a 42lb bag. http://www.enhance3022.com/products#in-season Thoughts?? Thoughts? Great great feed, and if it's local and the dogs do good on...

Ben, I'll tell you this but you have to promise I get some sort of kickback......... :D You see all these highway workers, and railroad workers with reflective vests on? Make them reflective orange and green and have class 2 striping, there is a HUGE demand for a breathable vest like that or rain ja...

The board has been a little dull outside why are GSPs popular (or not). For conversations sake lets get something going. Here is the question if field trials are supposed to be about producing a better hunting dog through competition/comparison and selection, why does it seem that most "pro" field ...

if you need a 10x behind your dogs name, then your in it for the wrong "bleep" reason IMO. Could you explain this to me please. I just don't see anything wrong with any kind of positive notivation that gets someone in the field with there birddogdog. My goal is to win multiple Championships, am I i...

Lvrgsp, I don't know how the judging can be tightened up....any time their are humans involved and they are asked for their opinions, you are going to have varying views. It happens in all venues, not just HT's. There are rules and guidelines in place, how do we force people to see things the same ...

lvrgsp

I would say before you start adding JH 5x, SH 6X, MH 10X or whatever the acronym is going to be AKC better get a handle on the tests being performed now and how dogs are performing in each venue, there is so much disparity among JH, SH, MH across different regions, I would say straighten that out fi...

Yes, and it is part of the program my pro trainer uses............The dog needs to be ready for it but it is done in the same time frame as yard work..........

lvrgsp

I think it is a great idea.................IMO I think it aids in the breaking process...

Let me add I guess I need to know what your calling serious birdwork? Im guessing you mean steadying the dog on birds?

lvrgsp

Just curious what the bottom side of the pup is...............Sir Eaton and what bitch.............
Like to see a ped on that if you have one, and post some pics of the new pup when you get it.........you can PM it to me if you want.
Thanks.

If your in SW Ohio, and the dams pedigree is loaded up with the Tip Top moniker, I would bet the bitch side of it was bred from Blue chip kennels in southern Illinois, they used the tip top name alot in there dogs.
