I highly recommend this training for all dogs, hunting or not, who might be around areas where rattlesnakes hang out--like my back yard in Aurora, CO.

This Spring my 3 yr old yellow lab Tucker picked up the middle name of "excavator". I think it started where some of my neighbors rabbits were burrowing under my fence to eat my "greener" grass. So now I have to sections of temporary fencing surrounding those 5 holes which I filled in and...

I had a one year old lab pup that got smacked on the nose in the field behind our Denver house about 13 years ago. $2600 credit card later he was fine. We had him to the EM Vet in 30 minutes and by then he was already in shock. By the time we left the vet, we, not him, his nose was the same size...

I went with the Alpha 300 after losing my lab in a ND cornfield for about an hour in 2023. I still use my TriTronics Sportdog G3 if I'm just training but the battery in the collar is on it's last legs. I have some velcro on the left strap of my Bird-n-light vest and put velcro on the back of...

Thanks for the report

Not much forum activity for the CO members.

I made my first eastern CO trip as a 2-day jaunt on Dec. 18 and 19 with my 11 yr old lab Brady and a buddy with his two springers-11 and 4. In our first field (private) we put up a mixed group of about 8 at fairly long range. I could not make a proper ID so did not shoot. He missed one long shot...

What size Rex Specs did you get for your lab and how big is he? My younger lab is a rangy 73 lbs.

Thanks

Are those Rex Specs?
