I am very confused. Why do you need to edit a pedigee? Did it change or are you just wanting to add titles and ch? I don't believe that you can edit any pedigee. Only the ones u create. Just make a new one. I don't believe grant is running this site anymore. Get ahold of one of the mods for more info.

I used to get all pumped up to go out on opening day but I have never shot a deer before oct 20th so ill wait a few more weeks. Good luck if you going out.

Those really are some beautiful pictures Don!! If I am understanding you correctly about the difference between training birds and wild birds, I agree with you. I think the only real difference with training birds is the way they are presented or method in which they are used. Charlie Could you ple...

A 12 o'clock tail is something I was obsessed with 4 years ago. I have learned that most dogs don't point perfect everytime. A tail can and will change with age up to over a year old, as their muscles develop. Some dogs will pull their tail on pidgeons but 12 o'clock on quail.

All it takes is for one pup to get a worm while running in the yard or pasture, then they all get them.

No. I worm mother and puppies at 2 weeks old. Then worm pups every 2/3 weeks until I start them on Ivomec.

Real nice. Looked like a good time.

Birddog3412

Yes the males can tell a jip is in heat before a human can. I have heard of dogs being bred through a fence so as HIGHLY unlikely as it is.....you are doubling your chances by having a male on both sides.

Snips, I will not disagree at all with you about a dog being flown and being in minimal contact with other, possibly sick dogs. But it is going to very from vet to vet on how good of a once over the dog gets to get a health clearance to fly. I have never had a vet take a stool sample. From what I ha...

I prefer air, as I still do not want strangers hauling my dog and handling them. Do you know the people at the airport who are handling your dogs in a crate? Who may or maynot be giving them water? Have you seen how the baggage hadlers throw bags around. Im not trying to knock having your dog flown...

You can transport by land or air. I use ground transport. Chuck and Heather Fowler, Adventure Bound Gundogs.

I worm with panacur about 5 weeks into preagnancy. I also use monthly ivomec regardless of what stage of pregnancy.

Is the knot on his penis, on his sheath, or just under the skin in the area of his penis?

Birddog3412

The 209's are a little louder so I like the 22's for introducing puppies to gunfire. If you keep the NEF I believe you can buy inserts for the 32 that will let it shoot 209's.

Look under section 4. This is for human contact, but if you feel the pup got alot I would keep calling the vet.

You might wanna check your local Tractor Supply store for the prices on diamond.

Alot of feeds are recomended for All life stages. I have read several post on forums and a few articles that say "puppy feeds" are just a myth and not needed.

How old is the vet? I have a book written by Henry P Davis, he is in the Field trial Hall of fame. The book was written in the 1950's.

Ive never seen or heard of a 3X3X8 but we have been using 4X4X8 bales of straw and hay for over 10 years. They stack better (not as much wasted space as round bales). You can pull off in flakes just like the small bales, but they are very thin, maybe 4 inches. And they will fall apart when you are c...

Wisc. DNR released birds? Were they trapped wild pheasants or pen raised birds? Nothing like sacrificing the legacy and tradition of wild bird hunting for money. Would you rather out of state hunters just come out and massacre all your wild birds???? At least they are making some type of effort to ...

Im having very good luck with Pet Armor, its a generic Frontline that is sold at Walmart. 3 months is $29, but it is the same price whether you are buying for a 20 lb dog or a 90lb dog. So I buy the bigger dose and split it between two dogs.

Nice looking pup. Ive killed alot of pheasants over a pair of my buddies two Britts.

Many pups are born and raised in a kennel That's mine. Mine too. The mamma and the littermates keep each other warm. If I bought a single puppy and it was cold out I would keep it in the garage. I have a few favorites that get kenneled in the garage when the weather is single digits at night.

What are we talking about here?? Sending a dog off to be trained as a gundog, or having it trained and left on a pros string for trialing. What I am saying is: puppy.....$800 2 months puppy training...$1400 3 months hunting dog training....$2400 1 month force fetch ....$800 if my math is right $4400...

Birddog3412

I guess it depends on where you are located. In my area $700 a month for puppy training seems very very high and unless you just dont have time could be done on your own. $800 a month for gundog training is higher yet. What does the breeder get for a finished dog. Go look at some of his finished dog...

the sire and dam are both multiple champions in whatever game you play One of the puppies really stands out above the rest, the breeder tells you that pup is his pic of the litter, you agree .

I give up also!!!!!! Why is it that people that don’t have dogs that point or run with a high tail all say, “Dogs don’t use their tails to find birds, or I like the old style FLAT tail, or Judges shouldn’t throw dogs out that point with low tails, or, or, or, or.

Ezzy good point. I want my dogs to have good tail set and carry it well.

gittrdonebrits, long tail has nothing to do with slistoes comment. If I had a bob tailed breed I would still want them to hold it up, unlike the pic below.

Birddog3412

It is preference. A good tail set just looks better IMO, but it doesnt affect there ability at all.

They also make a little jet motor for canoes.

I was running low on 22 crimps and stopped by Gander Mountain to get some, they were out. The guy there told me I could use the 22 crimps for the DT dummy launchers, I didnt know for sure and didnt buy them. Has anyone done this?

Birddog3412

A vet told me that it is possible but I personally would not get my hopes up without them being knotted. When he starts getting out of control then push him toward the female and make him stay in her to knot.

Birddog3412

I would tell you not to mess with the quail right now. They are laying eggs and nesting.

I would not go with an "old" 1100, 870, 1300, etc. Simply because of weight. Im no little guy but I carry a Browning semi-auto, I believe it weighs about just over 7lbs unloaded.
