    A gundog that is gun-shy, is as useful as a gundog that blinks birds. The end result is the same....start again with a new one and don't repeat the mistake.

    first I want to talk with setter people here and see what they're up to.Talk of Earl trialing again and importing another bitch -I want to see if that's happening or not.I could import from Aussi --just slowly going through the process.

    Don't slack.

    Took me 2 years to do imports etc to getting to a first mating just now.

    I was dealing with young dogs...you aren't. Your fertility window isn't getting any better.

    No, I believe they were in love with his sire, "Brek" the most winning show pointer in Italy for the last 20 years. He and his progeny command big money

    By the looks of their website, the only hunting that dog does is seagulls on Manly beach

    Depends who you ask. Not my idea of a pointer. The true pointers qualities come from within, its inherent abilities to find and point birds. Not its angulations and converging head planes




    ...Anyway, back to breeding hairy dogs
