if you can start with a clean slate, you might keep up pretty well with cleaning monthly at home? depends on the dog and the food they eat. lots of variables, we agree though, teeth cleaning is necessary. TY

very hard to do effectively as it is a rare dog that will let you scrape under the gum line. if you miss this area the plaque will be back very soon. your wife should understand this issue, dogs not like humans. Much resistance.

$500 is about right, even in the DFW metro area. got a cleaning kit, paste and brush, he loves the flavor, kinda fights the brushing, but he is getting better, just started his dental brushing a couple days ago. yes, it needs to be done daily, bacteria gets under gums, gets into the blood...

dude, stop dwelling on the guys business, good luck finding a room with dog for $60 a night! good luck.

insects are the "canary in the coal mine."

he also picks up maid cleaning service, utilities and kennel clean up. nice to have a full size fridge for your food and beer and a place to cook your own food and make your lunch each morning. with a motel, it's a food crap shoot every day. place to clean your birds after dark too. it just...

that is so true, i have watched birds move after a vehicle goes by. birds only time to be lazy is after feeding, then with full bellies they like to sit down.

i like to walk in where others do not and some marginal cover can produce as it is over looked by many. birds tend to go where they aren't pressured.

i wish everyone good luck here, but i shut down my support for Kansas several years ago. Until the state feels the pinch of reduced revenue from NR hunters they will suck on the tit until it's dry.

exactly, 2 different actions by the dog. thank you.

i define great dog work in several ways. i had a wire haired vizsla who would typically point his pheasants from respectable distances of usually 15-25 yards. In CRP the birds would typically run and stop, run and stop. he would hold point until i released him to relocate the bird, point and...

how can you expect a creeping dog to stop before the bird breaks? relocating is acceptable, watching/allowing a dog to creep is a license to roading in on birds and not being steady ever, which is ok, if thats what you want. just my humble thoughts.

accurate weather forecasting has gotten worse over the years, follow the science.

Kansas has lost a shit load of quality walk in ground, coupled with the drought this year is bad news. SD always popular, but nothing at all like in the past, many other states in emergency haying and reduced public ground. oh well, prepare for lots of walking.

yes, fly over country controls little of what takes place out there, the rich and powerful pols make policy and it is unlikely to change.

every time we think we need to do more, we need to do the status quo

3-1 sounds about right for most pointing breeds, depends on a bunch of variables. i will soon be back to 2 dogs, so swapping them out from field to field will keep them fresher. i never feed my dogs anything during the hunt, too much chance for stomach upset and choking. water, water, water,
