If you can find some local clubs near you ..go check them out watch handlers and dogs . It is a great way to see what you want from your dog and what you DON'T want. Then pick A method as you begin and learn it before trying other things as mixing and matching before you have A method down will only...

I call it positive judging, others giving the dog the benefit of the doubt. In my mind we want the best dog, not a mediocre error free one. I have heard it explained a rough diamond versus a polished stone. Example, a dog uses the wind, smartly going objective to objective, points with great style,...

In my opinion the less yacking you need to do the better. It takes time for them to get used to all the commotion of the gallery, horses, strange dogs, some guy yelling his head off, you will get to the point where when you are braced with someone like that you can just let him do the yacking for b...

Do you give your dog heartworm medicine? If so see if they have a plus version which has the extra ingredients to kill worms I personally do 1/10thcc of Ivermectin 1% solution per 10lbs of body weight and that will also take care of round worms Seen that action work when I gave pups the 2 week and 4...

Did you get all shook up this morning or what ?

BRITTANY SURVEY
this is an anonymous survey could you please take a few momets to answer it
Thank yoh

As a NSTRA handler/judge and trainer. The biggest mistake handlers make with their dogs is trialing them too young . I will not enter a dog in Nstra before they are 2 years old. This game can totally unwind a young dog. This being said you need to force break to retrieve no matter how (Natural) you...

This is what I do
I begin my pups at six weeks old with 1/10 ml/cc per 10lbs body weight of 1% ivermectin solution

That dose will also cover round worms

The first four posts have to be approved so that we can verify that people aren't spammers

What I have found that works great is pro den 420 GRAMS Will last the average 2 years for a brittany as you only need to add a tiny little scoop on to their food I have found it at Amazon for about 75-80 bucks including shipping Takes about three weeks and you will start to see the tartar start to c...

I would let that pup chase birds until it is bird crazy and then when the pup is balistic for birds then and only then would I get a light round aimed the other direction shoot one round one round only and only when the pup is in full chase. I would let that stew for a day or so and then repeat if p...

I was informed last night by the Owners that DC/AFC Redlines Tequila Smoker aka Smokey http://www.remekvizslas.net/dog.php4?id=2517 Whelped Aug 1 1998 passed away July 20 2014 Smokey was a dog that really put his stamp on his progeny not only were they serious bird dogs ,many went on to get FC title...

If I was considering a horse that the current owner had in a harsh bit I would question why they needed it. If a horse is well trained it shouldn't need a harsh bit. Some owners and trainers when they have difficulties with a horse, think the answer to all problems is to move to harsher and harsher...

Living in a dry climate like Arizona you're chances of the pup having heartworm are lower. If you're trying to save money use the doc Roy's roundworm remover from Walmart 5cc per 10 lbs. Parvo is what I'd worry most about and the shots at the feed store take a long time to offer full protection. Fo...

What is taking so long for the pictures?

Basics are the dog can not be in motion at all till after the bird is flush
dog has to basically retrieve to with in 3 feet of the handler who can not move after the dog releases or is released for the retrieve
dog needs to back the other dog
dog can not interfere

Best treat

All what the dog has the desires to do ..Some of my western bred brittanys have gone back east to hunt grouse and such

Make sure the breeder is breeding dogs that want to hunt ..after that it is fine tuning what the human wants to do

Unacceptable behavior on the dogs part to ever think it can nip at a human even the obnoxious little versions. Not knowing the full scope of Why the dog nipped as in all the little things that lead to the dog reacting like it did ...Everything by how the kid looked at the dog and approached the dog ...

Believe it or not, there are some real honest Americans in California. We may be surrounded by the odd but leave the big cities and you'll find the real California. Any who, I went with the Delta upland and I'm looking forward to training with it. I lived north of fresno in the foothills going towa...

ROTF.....Hmmm can we say that picture looks a bit dated

Wow amazing how people want to demonize Objects instead of the PERSON that controls the objects :roll:

Congratulations

This was in the last little over a year that this happened

If a dog is bred to hunt that is Awesome stuff when the drive for the bird is worth far more then a biscuit

I never had a problem ordering anything from Tri Tonics to Ca. http://www.tritronics.com/pro-100-g3-exp.html http://www.gundogsupply.com/tri-tronics-pro-100-exp-g3-1-dog.html Not available to California Addresses because the included batteries and chargers do not meet California Appliance Efficienc...

I swear by Magic Coat shampoo, conditioner & spray conditioner. I also lightly spray with an oil sheen made for African American hair at night. Their coat absorbs the oil overnight while crated so they're not sticky or slick in the morning. Also bathe weekly. Another thing we like to use is the 60 ...

a complete breech is not a big deal it is when the pup is side ways blocking the canal..in your case being new Have vet number handy as if she goes pushing solid for more then an hour..and I am not talking about just having a contraction and a little later having another I am talking about a constan...

lets just say Not all types Tapeworm can or will be killed with safeguard and I can vouch for that (unfortunately)

Ivermectin itself will not kill tapeworms. prazinquatal is the key ingredient that you need...I get just the regular Fish Tape and give a tab a day for 3 days if it is a bad case I will bump it up to five days. Fleas are the culprit for tape worms so if I have a dog that gets into fleas specially by...

Lavendar and citrenella just about 7 drops of each in a cup of distilled some white vinegar...put in a fine mist sprayer

How AWESOME. What a miracle

I wonder why some of the collars on the Tri-Tronics sight say they won't ship to California. I haven't seen it anywhere else. Thanks for the help! Because the republic of California says the battery recharging system is not energy efficient but at the same time give cells phone chargers amnesty...g...

If you can when you have to put him in the kennel ..first give him the opportunity to go in on Jo's own accord this is one of the only places where I will toss in a small milk bone so once the dog is in they have something. But when I have one that doesn't want to kennel then I will turn them around...

I just continue feeding my females the performance blend if she doesnt want to eat it as suggested add a little cottage cheese to it. You do not want excess weight on your dig as a fat dog is going to have problems. Continue exercise as she knows it as a dog that is physicality fit will have an easi...

I use the Rick Smith method..teaching to stop at the flank...once I have the dog where they will respond to the cue at the flank to stop...Then I go to the field and will work with the wind and wild flush birds I will allow the dog to commit to the chase and then cue him to stop if I need to dial up...

Pretty much anytime on calls on the working dogs early morning

If you would like to come down some morning I would be happy to show you some things. We are just south of you

Where are you located?

Training with mo is a pretty good one. But little fyi all the books out there won't teach you how to read a dog ..go check out some methods now so when you get your pup you will already have somehands on

Brandy is a male...I know most brandys are female only reason I stress that brandy is a male is there are some super nice people who are watching the pet finder type sites and I have gotten s one emails on red setter females ... Anyway I don't think it is brandy either I think he may have been getti...

Last report was a potential sighting at another ranch. The rancher has had a few newborn calves that are being killed since this red dog showed up at his ranch..Not 100% sure if it is Brandy or not but not a good sign as that rancher is not a happy camper at all. :cry: I pray that it isn't Brandy ki...

Welcome to the board..Are you ready for winter already

I know I am

I do know of a few dogs that will "pay" the price to do what they want and will go through the highest setting ... when it comes to avoidance training I do use the high settings as I want the dog to know for instance that the snake just bit them and that it isn't worth a repeat..but again I have com...

Facts are the ones that didn't get reg FDSB llewellyn setter from King were ones where the Sire couldn't be determined via DNA. There is a twist in his version on his web site about his research on the llewellyn setter as one can look at a book called the modern setter written back in the early 1900...

Congratulations ...Sonny and Patch or Patch and Patches Dad

are an awesome team to beat.

A good trainer is a good trainer I wouldn't hesitate for a second about walnut hill kennels aka snip for training.
