Yeah just remember when reading there's a lot of bullshit and a bit of good stuff.

Spread your traps out and give him a bit of time to settle back into his pattern between traps or you'll create bad habits

My impression of Cesar Millan is roughly the same of my impression of Ruff, there's probably some very good concepts there but he rarely puts any actual training information in what he writes and...

You can have my study guide from my behavior class if I can find it but I think the majority of what's written on canine psychology is BS

Interesting, I don't run into as many quail as pheasants so maybe Quin just hasn't figured out they are better fun yet. We did have one crazy day last season where we ran into 3 coveys in one pass of...

Yes I have also seen that experience is very important in a dog keeping it's head in those situations.

I have used the technique of walking them at heel to get their heads back in the right space...

Cool, no tweed required.

My dogs are equally enthusiastic on pheasants and quail

Yeah if you want to go out with a normal person with a real dog I'll take you for a walk if you get down this way or when I'm up there.

I get all my gear from Gun Dog & Hunting Dog Training Supplies, Tritronics Innotek collars, Electronic Collars

The unit I run is 2 dog set that's both an e-collar and a beeper (Dogtra 2502 T&B)...

The beeper collars are easier to use and quicker/more precise to locate your dog if they are within a few hundred yards. Not to mention more compact and much less expensive. They also have a function...

Back to the original question.

Generally I like the dogs to stay within sight. My goal for their range is to have them cover as much ground as possible without going out of sight. Often in the...

Hey Dundee, I spoke with the farm owner (an animal nutrition researcher) and she said our dams have been treated with something they did a research trial on that kills the toxigenic cyanobacteria and...

Thanks. Not being from round here that's news to me.

I suppose that's fair enough if that was your experience but that's not normal with responsible breeders.

Obviously shit happens despite your best efforts but it's the exception not the rule.

Yup I'm entered in the lot with Quin

I'll be there

To me trialling is not about the results but about what I learn about my dogs and gundogs in general in the process.

It depends on the quality of the line.

Almost all the dogs I've ever owned have been purebred and linebred to a greater or lesser degree and all have lived long healthy lives with no serious...

Holy shit I'm stuck on the side of the road in tokoroa with the front hub/wheel ripped off my truck and even I'm not bored enough to read all this crap.

Never argue with idiots. They will drag...

Too many people take themselves too seriously

Interesting, it seems I am unable to post in the normal dog section

I use my dogs for all of the above

I was thinking more along the lines of the guy that got his dander up because I asked him what a post had to do with the topic of discussion, deleted his post and messaged me telling me not to be so...

Seems to me like the real problem is some precious little flowers getting butt hurt over fuck all

He wouldn't keep the e-collar on
