    Pigeons

    Looking for pigeons for the purpose of dog training. I’m located just north of Pittsburgh, PA but willing to travel a little ways for the right deal.

    I saw that outfit with all the dogs at Plentywood. A different outfit near there ask Me where to go where they wouldn't come across young pheasants, but would have Shaptails. His dogs caught some young pheasants. I wish this dog training would be banned, at least in August and September.

    Newb wants to get into sporting dogs.

    We got an English cocker spaniel last year and I don’t think I will ever be without one again. He has been a great family dog. Loves playing with the kids and bird hunting. Small enough he can travel with us. Tons of energy outside but you come inside and he’d sit all day on the couch...

    There are some really solid trainers here, so hopefully they will chime in. For guns - introduce the dog to gunshots when young. Go to a trap range and walk around with the pup and don't act excited, etc. Just play it off likes it's no big deal. You want the dog to associate gunshots with...

    Newb wants to get into sporting dogs.

    We’ve hunted ruffed grouse, mountain quail, sharpies, huns, sage grouse, doves, pheasants, geese, ducks, and a swan or two with this old girl. She’s retired now, but most shortcomings have been ours, not hers. She’s done whatever we’ve asked of her. Someone told us that if you have a dog...

    Coyotes and foxhounds

    Takes a lot of work to build a hound. Takes dedication. It’s absolutely the most fun hunting you’ll ever have.

    Pheasant Hunt Dog Handler Etiquette

    Hello, I’m scheduled for a 1/2 day pheasant hunt in a few weeks. It’s a “wildlife ranch”, so they’ll be planted farm pheasants. Accompanying me will be a friend/mentor who’s training his young lab, as well as a friend of his who has a pointer. The farm also has dogs & handler that I can hire...

    We aren’t going to tolerate racism or racist themed posts.

    They're basically a jumbo dove. Never met my grandpa but my dad always tells the story that he said in the great depression, he and his siblings were some of the only kids to have much meat to eat and that was pigeons. Couldn't afford to keep the meat off the farm supposedly.

    Gratuitous Bird and Dog Photos

    Some summer bird work with some of my Brittanys. The adult male is my stud dog, Rocky. He has one of the top three hardest points I've seen after quite a few years of training professionally. The liver pup, Eleven, was sired by Rocky and my female named Blixen. I breed for light but leggy...

    Training Resource- Lab for Upland hunting?

    It’s dated, but I have used the training method in “gun dog” and “water dog”. Super easy for me and it worked with all five of my Chocolate Labs. I started them early and the traning was fun and easy.

    I have pics of a guy that was camped at the Plentywood fairgrounds for two straight months (August and September) with 57 dogs in a horse trailer. Training on public land sharpies because “they hold nice”. The 10 day resident only opener is the same thing they do in ND. Seems like it is a...

    Seizures in dogs

    We have an older lab that has seizures. We tried the medicine but it was sad to see it kill his general drive to do anything lab like so we stopped. My wife did a ton of research and we learned that it could be his food. We switched to a Costco brand and he has gone several years without any...

    The big shot dog trainers with lots of dogs have overwhelmingly been an overall negative to the area.

    Dog boots

    I’ve never had any luck with multiple types of dog boots. I’d try my best to get my dog’s pads in shape with summer training.

    Training Resource- Lab for Upland hunting?

    Training plan is easy. Work on basic obedience and expose your pup to as many things as you can in the first 6-7 months. Collar condition at that point and then hunt the dog as much as you can. Do your force fetch after the first hunting season. Edit: read up on marker or clicker training and...

    Anyone give up hunting other species after getting your dog?

    I've gone back and forth for over 40 years. Seems like first couple years with new dog i get focused on training and polishing the dog. Then get some balance back. Still love big game but a dog only lives for a short time.

    From my NR, dog breeder, dog training perspective these are all fair proposals. I think SB 514 and HB 450 are both positives for upland hunting. I'm more than happy to give NRs a shot at the first 10 days without me being around. I'm the guy that shows up with big a truck and dog trailer...
