    Sometimes working in the gun shop hurts....a LOT

    This. I had a good pal who worked for scheels for a couple years and managed the dog training section or whatever. He was always going on range days and often going to scheels events and fishing with pro anglers to learn products, tactics, etc. I don’t know if Cabela’s, BPS, or Sportsmans do...

    Dog advice please

    All jokes aside, ‘There are no words in any of your holy books that compare to the loyalty of a dog’ Should try training it instead of shooting it or abandoning it, I dunno.

    Dog attack

    I'm with @OntarioHunter. Some animals are just wacko. Sure there may have been a breakdown in training and the dog may have been a unique case requiring very specialized training at a very specific to time in it's life that less than 1% of the dog owner population could have discovered and...

    WIREHAIRED POINTING GRIFFON OR GERMAN WIREHAIRED POINTER? True Versatility

    vaversatile, I currently have 2 Drahts (my first had passed at 14 years of age). I got my first Draht 20 years ago. I'll try to answer your questions to the best of my ability. I've only owned females, never have they been stubborn or constantly disobedient in training. I actually find them...

    Best upland gun dog breed?

    Tough to generalize. My male GWP has amazing endurance even now at 9. But he is very long legged. Many times people have questioned his age thinking he is far younger. His strength was covering massive ground on the prairie seeking Sharptails. That dog would run 12-15 miles nose to the ground...

    Porcupines

    A friend lost his Airdale on its 18th porky....they don't learn without some help. Some anti porky gun dog training sessions are advertised along with anti rattler and anti skunk. Personally my pointing dogs wear shock collars and as soon as I can tell it is a porky they get a high level...

    My birdfriend's back and they're gonna be in trouble (Hey la, hey la, my birdfriend's back)

    My experience with prairie birds - huns, sharptail, and sage grouse - is that they honor the point from a good pointer far more often than they do not. If the dog is working far out and backs off the birds a good distance with the point then they almost always will not bust because of the dog...

    First time uplander

    The last 2 seasons have been pretty limited on hunting. I have tried to focus hard on the training and trying to limit bad habits. But I have had him out for waterfowl a few times last year and this year. He is a water loving freak! He has also been tracking deer for me since he was about 9...

    Female dog names

    I’ve always been a male German Shepherd dog owner. But now that I have young kids and life changes, I just picked up a female black lab puppy. We stoked. She’s adorable. She’ll stay at the breeder for a couple months and get some hunting training and hopefully obedience as well! We’re...

    Having a good dog

    Through the years we've had a few dogs. And blessed to have a 2 that seemed like the one in a million. Both Chesapeake Bay Retrievers. Chessys fit into our ak weather just fine. Our first chessy was an adoption. Neighbors moved and needed a home for their dog. Oby was built like a tank...

    Dog attack

    Their response was they would either get it training or rehome it. I told them rehoming just passes the problem to someone else. They said they are calling trainers today.

    Dog Breeders

    Krystal Creek Kennels in Wisconsin. I got my six year old gsp from them and he's been a great dog, despite my lack of training knowledge when I got him. The Harmyer family was great to deal with. Mountains Fury in New York. My two year old is from them, and he's shaping up to be very...

    Breeder recommendation for Wirehaired Pointing Griffon

    Do you remember the breeder?

    Looking for direction

    An old bird dog trainer once told me that a good trainer spends as much time teaching the hunter how to handle a dog than teaching the dog how to hunt. Get the most out of your new hunting buddy and invest in professional training for the both of you.

    What is your single top hunting season goal this year? I expect updates damn it.

    It’s and orange reflective safety collar I have here where when on the road in the semi. I can’t find the thing anywhere either and need to find a replacement. Brown dog disappears at night and this makes her more visible. Truck drivers are idiots. But they seem to get smart when you put...

    Sh*t our kids do

    At 71, I still do the same thing. It's a good thing I don't live in town.

    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...

    Chukars in the Root.

    They were probably released for dog training. I doubt they’ll last the winter.

    Dog attack

    Coming at this from an insurance perspective. Hopefully you received proper medical care for your wounds. That ER bill should be submitted to your neighbors home insurance company as a claim against their personal liability coverage. That claim will trigger a policy review upon renewal. The...
