Gents! Merle, my supremely spoiled pheasant finder is a 7 1/2 year old GWP and began exhibiting symptoms of a torn ACL about 2 months ago. We conducted radiographs last week and while it's not a definitive method for diagnosis, all signs point towards a partial tear. Of course, the timing of...

Gentleman! It's been a damn long time since I posted last! Life has taken some busy turns but all is well. Wife and I had our first child (son named Carter) three months ago and Merle, my GWP had a litter of pups last summer (5 total) bred by Adam Cunningham's sire Fritz from Ironwire GWP. Moved...

Hi guys, My little GWP pup Merle got hit by a car tonight. She's stable but has a very long night ahead of her. Toughest day of my life and I'm looking for any and all support. Please keep us in your thoughts. Bridger

Yo- So I'm going to be doing some duck hunting with my GWP lady this year and would like to find a good fitting neoprene vest for her. I bought an Avery (size medium) and it's the right size but it's definitely cut for a retriever so I'd have to modify it considerably for it to work. I'm curious...

Hey fellas- I am a recent and very fortunate recipient of a fine 1988 (Japanese manufacutured) Browning A-5 sweet sixteen. Unfortunately the stock was cut very short and so I am hoping to replace it and thought I'd check here for any suggestions aside from ordering direct from Browning parts...

How'd you guys do? I missed it this year, unfortunately. 2 more weeks to go...

I'm taking Merle out to run around tomorrow and I'm wondering if anyone else from here might be out there. We'll be in the 3rd Junior brace tomorrow. Hope to see some of you. :cheers:

Thought I ought to post some shots of the recent CPW Ranching for Wildlife (Silver Spur Ranch) hunt, out of Walden. Dad and I cashed in 15 years of preference points for a Colorado pronghorn hunt and had an absolute blast in North Park! We tried to go into the hunt with out any expectations...

Bet that title got your attention! :) In all seriousness, my 1 year GWP finished her first heat cycle last month and her nipples are still significantly larger than they were before she came into estrus. Is this common? Will they ever go back to their normal size? I'm not so much concerned with...

Hey fellas, So I'm not new to the dog training thing but I am new to field trials, NAVHDA certification, AKC registration, and all that other competition/certification stuff. My one year old GWP is doing great and I'm thinking that we'd both have a lot of fun involving ourselves in some test...

Hey fellas- So Merle, my 1 year GWP bitch, is coming along nicely. I hunted her quite a bit (about 20 days in the field) last season and she did great (for being 6-9 months). Her obedience is coming along nicely and I've got her whoaing to the tone on her tri-tronics collar among other things...

Bob and Lisa Schutte of Schutte's Diamond Wirehairs out of Kearney, NE are going to be having a litter soon. http://schuttesdiamondwirehairs.com/Puppies.aspx I'm posting this because last year I got my pup (Merle, she's the solid liver pup with the rooster in her mouth on their webpage) from...

I'm looking at picking up a Jaeger lead and I'm curious if anyone has any reviews or suggestions. The leather looks nice but I'm wondering if it might be better to get the duraflex/permatack version for better durability...thoughts?

I try to get my 10 month old GWP on the bike with a pulling harness for about 4-6 miles every day. She absolutely loves to pull me on the bike and it helps keep her from tearing the house apart. I'm curious what sort of distances and/or regimens other do to maintain proper critter fitness.

Hey guys- So I'm already growing impatient with the prospect of waiting an entire 8 more months for season to start and I really want to get the pup back on some birds but everywhere I call has ridiculous bird prices like $21 for a damn chukar. I don't belong to a club and I don't have much...

DOW AND PARKS TO COMBINE JULY 1 DENVER -- The Colorado Division of Wildlife and Colorado State Parks would merge into a new agency under one board and one administration on July 1 under legislation that will soon be submitted to the General Assembly, Gov. John Hickenlooper told a joint meeting...

Hey fellas- So I recently picked up a Tritronics Sport Basic for my 10 month old GWP. Within the week that I've had it, she's already responding very well and I'm pretty excited for what the future holds. I shot a lot of wily Colorado roosters over her this past season and was very impressed...

I decided to return to some of my old haunts in Weld county yesterday and see if I could find a rooster in some of the "old spots." It turned out to be my favorite day of the season! :) The weather was perfect and I managed to find a surprisingly large number of birds which was an added bonus...

Merle (my 5 month old GWP) had a blast on her first hunt and so did her mom and dad! Managed to bag quite a few birds and missed even more! Hardly any hunters out which was surprising. Knocked on a lot of doors and got permission 90% of the time (the only time we didn't was when it was being...

I was thinking that it'd be nice to have some way of displaying membership to fellow members and that perhaps a bumper sticker would get the trick the done. Any thoughts?
