I've always fed mine Purina One (now 30% protein) and they have thrived on it. Every store, Walmart included, seems to carry it. The last thing you want to happen is to run out of the dog's usual food and not be able to replace it immediately. That's why I've never given any consideration to...

Adopted a rescue Brittany today who was being fostered in Blair NE. Not sure of his age, probably 4 or 5. We're home now and he's getting used to a new place and a new master. Has a vague background as is often the case with rescues. I think he'll do fine afield based on his love of the...

Friend said while fishing in CO his Britt grabbed a trout on a stringer and presented it to him. That's versatility. LOL

Great way to teach directional hand/arm signals: put your dog on a check lead. when the dog is at the end, walk to the left (or right) with your arm extended in that direction. The dog will parallel you. They catch on quick.

My dog wears an e-collar. If i need it to look at me I vibrate a second. No whistles! lol

Do you use hand signals to manage your dogs afield? Maybe a better term is arm signals - an arm extended in the direction the dog should go. I use such signals in an effort to hunt in silence. With bird numbers down, they are jumpy. A Hill City old timer told me that when bird numbers are...

I live in north central and during mating season I did not see a single phez. Admittedly, I did not go looking for them.

She was in her prime at seven but lymphoma took her away this spring. Before that we hit a few fields last season. On our last hunt we were in some pretty tall cover on my cousin's place nearby. She was working the cover beautifully and thoroughly. And then she froze on point. In about two...

I made a close shot once where the wad hit the bird in the head leaving a clear circular 12 gauge wound.

George Bird Evans said a mouthful right there.

Recovering from L knee arthroscopy. Had same on R knee two years ago and it worked very well. Hoping for as good a result on L side.

Maybe spread a little money around by eating out.

I've seen phez go straight up like that, die, and then plummet. My huntin' buddy says this results from a head shot.

bag looks small

nice

Very capable looking dog, and such a good one

Tell Us About Interesting Dog Work. Here's one: There’s an east-west oriented half section of land in western Kansas that has every type of habitat an upland bird hunter could ask for. It has a deep draw with grass, kochia, plum thickets, and trees; crop fields; grassy knolls; a shelter belt of...

Tell us about your most satisfying shot. Here's mine: Gus the Brittany and I are alone again and on a long hill, a ridge, that runs north-south for a half mile through a beautiful CRP field. All the ambers, umbers, ochres, and beiges of fall decorate the flora and the sky is deep and so blue...
