    Dog tracking system

    if the old system is working, why replace it? i run the 100, maybe the 200i or 300i would have been nice for the inreach capabilities, but we now have a separate inreach and it wasn't worth the upgrade from the 100 to a 200/300 just to get the inreach. if you only need correction & direction...

    Newfoundland Moose

    I know it isn't self guided but economical and "easy" for those of us on the east coast: who has done a newfoundland moose hunt any pointers you wish to share or outfitter suggestions? right now looking at Riverrun outfitting, probably fly up and ship the meat back since dad doesn't seem keen...

    Should 17 year old apply for big three?

    my 2 cents: -save up for newfoundland as that moose is going to be similar to maine but no need to apply for permits so that one comes down to save up and enjoy. -others have hit the points pretty hard about making sure you're able to do the hunt, so I would say instead of focusing on a...

    Lost our buddy-UPDATE

    sorry for your loss, lost my 14 yr old border collie a bit over a month ago. we bought some extra time but cancer was finally the winner. I'm honestly going to say skip the designer breeds, 99% of them are poorly breed dogs that end up having health or behavioral issues. we just picked up...

    Mountain Lion with hounds…a bucket list hunt

    A lion hunt sounds like a blast, i love watching the dogs work and the pictures of cats in the tree is always awesome. When i was younger I dreamed of building a log home and having a lion mount so it would just be laying on a beam over the front door... then i got married

    WIREHAIRED POINTING GRIFFON OR GERMAN WIREHAIRED POINTER? True Versatility

    For your situation I would reach out to people with search & rescue dogs, and try to find S&R people that are using one of your 2 preferred breeds but also other breeds and ask why they picked what they picked. I think if you find a breeder that can produce S&R quality dogs, then they will be...

    Law Enforcement on Public Lands

    I've been formally checked once while bear hunting in PA, all summer long see the DEC rangers swing through the campsite we frequent with the horses and using the forest roads to get from A to B instead of going out to the paved road so they do have a presence. Have had conversations with the...

    Halo GPS Dog Fence...yeah or nay?

    worked with the local dogwatch guy 6 years ago e-collar training my dog so although i think spoton has a lot of potential but like you said dogwatch is a solid choice so the price is right. just need to get the guy to work on the company to get me the ecollar built that I want

    Halo GPS Dog Fence...yeah or nay?

    good to hear about the spoton collars, wish i had seen ozwildlife's post before we made the decision this morning but I think we will still be happy with our decision. with our proximity to the road we are going with a dogwatch fence but not a terrible price since my wife works at a vet...

    Halo GPS Dog Fence...yeah or nay?

    after our gsp decided to leave the horse pasture and stand in the road last week the wife said we need a dog fence before he can go back out unsupervised. we have a good relationship with the local dogwatch invisible fence company and they are coming out next week to give us a quote, but I keep...

    Bird Dog PSA Releasing your dog from snares, traps

    i don't mind leg traps, had our first run in with illegally set traps this fall but i feel as though if there is a risk of a dog being caught in a snare or conibear trap that they shouldn't be used. thanks for posting the videos, i've never seen the conibear in person so it will be useful if...

    Sell me a quilt
