    Hunted some really thick CREP.

    My last hunt, and I mean probably the final hunt for both me and my dog, I was walking the edge of some very thick CRP. Bree got out into it a ways and when I looked at my Garmin Alpha I saw she was 60+ yards to my right and stopped. So I headed out in her direction, when I got within 20 or so...

    Well, we got 2, not bad for a 14 year old Brittany

    That's one big Brittany. I had a male Brittany that was a 50 lb. solid muscle dog. I'll see if I can post a pic of him. Congrats on the two roosters.

    I need help with spots for our trip

    Bob, there are better areas in the state than the area from Watertown up to the Pierpont area. I would suggest getting further west. West of Hwy 37. Golden Hour is the member on here that knows all the hot spots NW of Watertown but I don't think he is too anxious to share them with anyone...

    My Pheasant Hunting Farewell

    Man, there's a bunch. Some of my elk hunts and my moose hunt were pretty special. And I've had some excellent dogs along the way. My last two Brittanys were probably the best of the bunch as hunting dogs, field trial dogs and super family pets.

    Geezer Hunt in December

    If you read my Farewell post you probably know I won't be at the Geezer Hunt. There has been several of you that have expressed an interest in doing the hunt. I have visited with Haymaker (Dennis Hoyle) who is providing the land and lodging and you guys are still welcome to come that first...

    My Pheasant Hunting Farewell

    Thanks for all the best wishes. I appreciate it. I knew the day would come, just never sure when that would be. I'm at peace with my decision. I'll still get the dog out running to keep her in shape. Thinking back over the years, I've hunted pheasants, Hungarian Partridge, Sharptails, Ruffed...

    My Pheasant Hunting Farewell

    No new chapters. Just continue to enjoy retirement, play some golf, ride bike, exercise, watch grandkids ball games and spend winters in Arizona. BTW, got my first shotgun in 1956 at age 10. A Savage model 220 single shot .410. Still have it in my gun case.

    My Pheasant Hunting Farewell

    Dear Fellow UPH Members, after a few short hunts this fall I have come to the realization that I just can't do it anymore. My old age, AFib and Type 2 diatebes have finally caught up with me. Don't feel sorry for me as I've been hunting pheasants (and other birds, small game and big game) for...

    Injury Help

    How old is your dog? If x-rays didn't show anything then you might need have an MRI done.

    Injury Help

    Was it your vet that said to give him 2 weeks of rest? Did they take an x-ray of the area? I'd see your regular vet first. If he can't determine the problem have him refer you to the vet school at UW-Madison. I've taken dogs to the University of Minnesota a couple of times when my local vet...

    Probiotics

    Good luck. I hope works for your dog.

    Probiotics

    Probiotics will help your dog have a healthy gut, which is good. But I don't see where it's going to help a dog in eating their normal ration of food.
