    Lab guys sorry but....

    Well I just read most of the posts. Two things come to mind. Why do all other breeds compare themselves against the good ole Labrador meat dogs? All dogs are fantastic (except Tollers) and everyone thinks their dog is the best, and they are all correct. Secondly I realized awhile back that...

    Gucci Time

    Damn, I have owned a suburban, I co-own a dog trailer, and I work as a pheasant guide regularly. If my hair hadn't fallen out I'd get a man bun too. A man bun must be gucci, or maybe just douchie?

    ACL/TCL experiences?

    I know of one lab that had a partial tear at around 6 years of age. She was allowed to heal naturally (without surgery) and returned to a normal life of hunting, and competition to the ripe age of 13.

    ACL/TCL experiences?

    I have, but I think the problem was less the surgery/surgeons skill and more the lack of the owner following rehab procedures.

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

    I have had many Labs and a couple GSPs. I like the labs because they are very competent pheasant dogs, one of the best waterfowl breeds, and just plain kick ass at retriever hunt tests and field trials. Lets face it they make really great companions too. If I only pheasant hunted a ESS would...

    Giardia in Dogs

    The idea of treating a dog with no symptoms seems wasteful. I have had dogs symptomatic a couple times and treated with metronidazole but never was told to do a deep cleaning of house etc. Maybe the vet schools are teaching a new protocol set. PS Metronidazole is available at pet food stores...

    PSA-Loosen up that choke, or get rid of it altogether

    Many years ago I was at a charity auction in St Cloud, Tom Knapp was sitting with the owner of DPMS Panther Arms who was a business associate of mine . We had so much fun....at the end of the night he agreed to golf in a lions club tournament in Dayton MN if I would do a 3 shell shoot off with...

    PSA-Loosen up that choke, or get rid of it altogether

    The only gun range "near" the twin city's that might allow high base loads is Del Tone in St Cloud. I'm sure there may be others but I'm not aware of them. The science of ballistics and patterning is interesting, and certainly has value but it will not turn you into Tom Knapp ;). Good...

    PSA-Loosen up that choke, or get rid of it altogether

    You just described my choice in guns, loads, and choke tubes to a tee! Except I haven't bought an Ultralight (yet). I find something that works and stick with it. I have played around a lot more patterning my waterfowl gun. And what I learned was the differences between shells, and extended...

    Heath Clearances?

    I have never seen a warranty of 36-48 months, 26 months is the norm. OFA requires a dog to be at least 24 months for testing, and 26 months gives you the time to have them tested. Once out of the warranty period I doubt the breeder would assume any responsibility nor should they. As the...

    Heath Clearances?

    I've never had a "Warranty Issue", but the couple people I know that have had were treated fairly by the breeders. Responsible breeders are responsible people I think.

    Looks like the court of public opinion has found him guilty, right or wrong.

    Dog Dies While At Trainer

    Pretty telling that after seeing the video of the dog she didn't go get her or at least arrange for someone to get the pup. If she was out of town she should have found someone if the video bothered her much as the news report said. The more I think about this the more it smells. If I ever...
