Looking for GSP info.
Looking for GSP info.
I'm looking at getting a GSP sometime this year. I hunt Grouse and Woodcock in northern Michigan. I currently run Labs in retriever hunt tests and I'm sure I will want to run the shorthair in pointing dog tests too.
I keep my dogs in the house about 1/2 the time so the GSP would have to have an "off switch" and be able to relax inside without being underfoot.
My question is this- Should I stay away from Field trial breeding? I know nothing about the different trials so I welcome any info or advice concerning the differences between field trial GSP's and hunt test GSP's. Thank you very much.

I would look at NAVHDA lines heavier coats for being up north and are true hunting dogs with a ton of versitally

Re: Looking for GSP info.
Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. (no pun intended)
I've got some research to do.

Abbe Lane has great versatile/NAVHDA line dogs. I am on my third GSP from them, he got a prize I Natural Ability at 4.5 months old, lives in the house, and comes to work with me all the time. Great nose, desire, and drive in the field with a definite off switch in the house. Fantastic temperaments on their dogs as well.

Re: Looking for GSP info.
I would second the idea of searching out a NAVHDA type dog.
