    What Ammo is This?

    Could be a .22 cal blank that was used for a dog training dummy launcher.

    How far do you stay upwind of elk?

    I’m guessing they didn’t get a good nose full because of weird air currents. Can’t say I have ever had an animal ignore my scent. Air currents do funny things. I’ve seen some odd things dog training and the only explanation is the air is doing things to the scent you can’t see and don’t understand.

    Dog training dates remain unchanged, correct? Does this do anything to stop the dog trainers from training their dogs the first 10 days of the season or does it just disallow 'hunting' those 10 days? If the latter, I can't imagine it will curtain much of the worst behavior and issues.

    The pigeon loft has 2 new residence

    I just started building my first pigeon loft. I have a pair of shooter pigeons that I bought a while back for working with my dogs, but they are currently residing in a dog crate much like the one in your video. Will pick up a few squeakers to join them in the new house once it's complete. My...

    HB 450 was the attempt to fix the dog training issue, along with the 10 day resident public land season. https://bills.legmt.gov/#/laws/bill/2/LC4148?open_tab=sum Combined, the removal of NR opportunity on public land, Block Mgt & Open fields, along with the new requirements for licensing for...

    ‘25-‘26 Upland Bird Thread

    Not to derail this, but FF is one of the most misunderstood facets of dog training. All you are doing is using pressure and release to make retrieving a non-optional task, just like a sit, a down stay, recall, etc. I doubt you folks are using natural cooperation to reinforce those under...

    That’s fair. Not every dog handles pressure the same. Sometimes you have to adapt the approach.

    Wirehaired Pointing Griffon training

    there are a ton of options depending on comfort level and experience. Id suggest starting with a local club/dog store and going through some classes. But you can get a ton of good step by step vides on YouTube.

    One more question. Can the dog trainers who are training large strings of dogs still train their dogs on public land the first 10 days of the season?

    I’ve had good success with FF with the GSPs I’ve owned. They thrived with the training. I’ve tried it a few times with my setters. It hasn’t worked so far. They get emotional and ask why don’t I love them. I get weak and give up with a big hug.

    Grouse! Let’s See Them

    I am. Missoula area. It’s the weirdest thing, I saw plenty of blues during spring bear and this summer when on training hikes with my dog. I’ve hit most of those areas this season, and no birds.

    Monday is the grouse opener here in CO. Gotta make a decision if I am chasing sharpies or dusky grouse. This will be my first season with my own bird dog. A simple black lab I’ve been training myself since I brought him home in February. I feel like I’ve been waiting my whole life for Monday...

    Hypoallergenic Hunting Dog Dreams

    Hey All, @R.K. you continued to stoke a fire in my belly. Serendipitously I met a bunch of guys from Pheasants Forever this week out hunting. This all led to “the talk.” My wife just green lit me to start researching a puppy for training this summer. We have two doodles I love dearly, but Leo...

    Did you eat many of them? I shot one on a local farm, when my dog was a puppy, to get wings for training. I ate the breasts and they were really good!

    Newb wants to get into sporting dogs.

    I'm currently in my first bird dog journey, biggest lesson I've learned in my pups first year of life is that I have needed way more training than he. A lot of what I wanted in a dog came naturally to the pup, it was me who had no clue how to run with what was already programmed. Read up on...

    2025 dove thread

    Took dog to some riverside country. It held doves over the summer, none this morning. 4 turkeys, 3 deer, a few ducks and geese. Dogs first trip out hunting since getting her back from trainer in Feb. We've done a lot of training and practice over the summer. She was great, sat in her place...

    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.
