I would love to have that problem. If you need any help with it this fall let me know.

My lab would act hungry 10 minutes after eating the whole bag of food if he got the chance. My setter was losing weight on full feed until I found one he liked. All dogs are different but labs are well know for their endless appetite.

Looks like you've got some work coming. Keep it up Remy!

I think you are on the right track.

That is correct once pigeons have established "home" (usually by breeding) they will do all they can to fly back there. Since yours have chicks you could probably use them for training but I would definitely wait until the chick are self sufficient. Either way you will want to make sure your...

She was probably feeling the lower stims before but just tolerating it. I've had stubborn dogs that would tolerate pressure just to be stubborn until I broke their "pressure" threshold, but once they were convinced that it wasn't worth the resistance training went quickly. Maybe she's not being...

I have been working with my 4yr old male lab. He isn't registering/remembering where the dummy lands, or isn't marking where it lands. He goes out and scent finds really well, but very often runs right over or past where he just watched the dummy land. Any suggestions for helping him to mark...

There is fairly strong anecdotal evidence that it fades with time, but I don't know if there is anything clinical showing receding symptoms.

Congrats on the weight loss. About what height/weight were you when it fit?

Does SD have 105 days of season?

There's my boys after a quick post work hunt this year.

He's an English Setter and you're right, 59lbs last time I had him at the vet, he's just so much bigger framed than my lab it messes with my thinking.

This year I fed Innukshuk 30/25 all year. My 65lb Setter gets 2.5-3cups, my (should be) 60lb lab gets 1.5 cups. They are loose outside so they burn more energy than most, especially the setter. They didn't lose any weight that wasn't extra this season. I switched to Innukshuk the tail end of...

That's what I did last year, but I never had my lab on 32/32, he was on 30/25 the whole season. My setter was on 32/32.

Well I've got Iowa in my bio, but I'm not in your neck of the woods. I'm closer to Missouri than Des Moines, which can make for some challenge when looking for pheasants.
