    Dog skin and coat care

    With my labs, I've always had good luck with Johnson & Johnson Baby Shampoo....it's pretty chemical free. It's great for sensitive skin, especially from grass itches, nettle, etc. I don't bath alot either, plenty of water time and just a clean water rinse after lake, pond or marsh, but there...

    Lab guys sorry but....

    For sure! Once the diabetes issue popped with my last lab, fresh beans, carrots, broccoli and celery! And honestly, much cheaper once the gardens come in! Lol!

    Lab guys sorry but....

    Only reason for me that I brought up the table scrap issue is two fold for me......my previous Lab and his brother both developed diabetes after about 4 years. My sister/brother in law had young kids and Mom would watch them alot. Mom also watched both dogs alot. As it played out, the dogs were...

    Why I love labs

    Lab guys sorry but....

    I fully agree on the "build" of a lab and the concerns for the grounding and pounding they put on. Larger bone structure, larger muscle structure, broader build.....and they have the ability to put weight on quickly. My Lab will be 8 in July. I have had him on glucosamine chews for some time...

    Lab guys sorry but....

    Yawn on this whole versatile thing. Yes, by NAVHDA definition, a Labrador Retriever does not fit the NAVHDA definition of "it's" recognized versatile breeds. So what, it's "their" list. A dog, any dog, can be trained to do any task.....even those that don't come from parents that have long names...

    Let's Bitch (Can't Hunt)

    After a long day in the field, on the water, or on the ice, a couple of cold beers hit the spot.....then a Old Fashion or two........sometimes it's a nightcap of Bourbon instead.....just depends on the day!

    I've had memberships to a Game Farm not far from where I live. Small family farm/business. Birds are always reasonably priced for members, a couple bucks more for non-members. Also, they had a deadline that all members had to have their birds used by the 3rd Saturday in December. The pens got...

    Pheasant hunting north west Wisconsin

    I can only imagine......its unfortunate that a "sportsman" can't respect boundaries and private land owners have to deal with trespassing. Throw that in with some of the behaviors some "sportsmen" exhibit on public land......leaves me shaking my head.

    I typically do 4 to 6 Game Farm hunts from December through March.....a couple are for memorials or other special events and a couple are just for fun with the guys. I have one this next weekend as a matter of fact.....which will be 2 months from the last time my dog was on birds in SD. My dog...

    Why did you go with the breed that you did and have you been satisfied?

    Labs for me too....what AKSkeeter listed.....their versatility, personality, drive, nose, intelligence, ability to socialize, desire to please and on and on.

    Tools?

    In reading the article, he did not have his cell phone with him. With that, there is no guarantee that technology is always going to work, or what if it gets damaged in the fall or submerged in water. Another thought that crosses my mind, which I do because of how often I hunt alone, is to let...
