This was their first time out with birds. OB (Orange Boy) would lock up as soon as he caught scent. Took Bob (liver and white) a while to figure out to use his nose instead of his eyes. Now on to more obedience training. I have OB turning to his name in the field, recall is strong and he is...

I'm going to be getting new dog houses for my mutts this summer and I am thinking seriously about the Deer Creek dog houses. I have had for the past many many years Dog Dens but I was never happy with the way the lid attached or the galvanized steel and a few other small details. Overall they...

I'm going to get a couple of remote launchers, quail/pigeon size and was wondering what everyone is using. Pros and cons of each. I've heard dogtra is the way to go. That's what my e collars are and I've been pleased with them. Also, with the manual launchers how does everyone do it by...

OB is the orange and white. You can see that day it was snowing and there was a snow flake caught on camera right in front of his nose making it appear he has a white nose. He was practicing his flying skills. Needs to get those ears flapping a tad bit faster though. That picture really...

It's been years since I've seen or heard a pheasant around here. We used to have quite a pocket of them up until about 10 or 12 yrs ago. This morning I took the truck and drove back to the pond to check for coyotes and I actually spotted some pheasant tracks in the snow on top of the pond...

Found what I think is a great deal on some Hercules tires but I've not had any experience with the brand. Has anyone ever ran any on their vehicles? Good, bad??

Went today with my daughter and shot a round. Been 15 years since I have done that and boy was I humbled! Used to shoot them quite a bit and don't ever remember shooting this bad! But, we had a ton of fun! I'd forgotten how much fun it is! Anyone else shoot clays?

With the low bird numbers I see more and more stuff for sale cheap around the area. Just picked up 2 more pro-built dog kennels for 100 dollars. Last fall I picked up a one run and a nice pro-built dog house for 100 dollars. Year before that I picked up a 2 run for 200 dollars. If there is...

Went out for while today and was walking the fields and couldn't beleive I was still kicking up dust out of the grass a mile from any road. Area I hunted today was in sad, sad shape. All hayed and then grazed on top of that. Quite a bit of the land still had cattle on it. Headed out again...

Got home from work last night. Took my uniform off and let the EP pups out to do their business and then brought them in. Sat down to watch TV for a bit and my dogs outside were going crazy barking. Grabbed the spot light and shined it out near the kennels and all be darned if their isn't a...

I'm either heading way south tomorrow or a bit north and west. Will make that decision when I hit the T in the road. Whats everyone else doing?

. Are the rattlers a big problem in the late summer? I'm guessing they are.

Got up this morning, fixed my coffee, thinking about going huntin for awhile today,look outside and there is some funny, wet, clear stuff coming from the sky.

This is the first full week on my new brand of dog food after making the transition to it. I took one of my pointers out for a few hours this afternoon and my god he was running like a banshee! Can the food make a very noticeable difference in a dogs hunting in your opinion? He kept this up...

I know it's late notice but I'm headed south tomorrow if anyone wants to go. Dog or no dog your welcome to go. Not heading to any private honey holes or anything so no high hopes of that. I also get up at a more reasonable hour lol. Usually head out around 9 or so.

Can anyone recommend a dog friendly motel around Glen Elder? One that will cater to a wet, smelly, labrador, muddy boots, and not break my bank account? Also if anyone is familiar with the area please PM me.

Why is Chili better on day 2 and even better on day 3?

I'm a retriever guy and when someone says their dog will handle I think blind retrieves, stop on the whistle and take hand signals. In the pointing dog world what does it mean exactly when someone says, does he handle or this dog handles?

Anyone hunt around either of these lakes?

Finally got into more than one covey of quail today. Had to go to my "go to" late season spot to find some. I hit 3 small areas that always hold quail. The dog moved 3 nice sized coveys with the largest around 30 birds. He bumped all 3 coveys. I assume because of scenting conditions so I...
