I am thinking of going out in early November around Sidney/Chappell. Are snakes much of an issue in that area by November/Late October? I’m not real familiar with the area and typical weather that time of year. Thanks!

Kind of a strange inquiry, but I’ll be headed to Ireland for the first time later this September. I won’t be hunting while I’m over there, but I was curious if anyone knew of any Irish/UK brands of upland clothing or supplies unique to the country that we don’t see over here? I’d love to get a...

Anyone on the forums live in/around the Pueblo area? My wife and I moved here about a year ago and I’m looking to meet other bird hunters/dog enthusiasts in the area. Thanks!

I’m looking for tips on working on gunfire conditioning with my 1.5 year old Brittany. I’ve read and watched quite a few videos and I think I’ve got a good understanding of the incremental, slow steps one needs to take. My problem is I don’t really have a partner that can help me. I’ve tried...

I'm looking at doing an early season rooster or maybe September sharpie someone in Central ND next fall. I'm looking at a general area between Minot, Parshall, and Garrison. Are there much in the way of rattlesnakes on that sode of the river? Would be looking at a mid September hunt or mid...

I'm looking for a used remote "basket style" bird launcher along with the control remote release for dog training. Please PM if willing to sell.

So, I've just recently started doing some DIY pigeon work with my dog in our backyard. Prior to this, I've been trying to work on whoa, with mixed results. Using the pigeon on a pole, I've been trying to get him steady on point since I have noticed he is creeping. I try my best to not let him...

Some of you may have seen my other two threads that I posted regarding my 1 year old Brittany, but I have a question and am looking for clarity. Our dog was adopted as a rescue this past spring, and has had a little bit of training, both diy and some one-off sessions from a couple of trainers...

That's the exact one that I have. I guess I wouldn't call that a Martingale style collar, more like a slip style collar with prongs for correction. For the record, it doesn't take much for correction with my dog so far to get him to adhere to a command. It seems to be doing its job during on...

I just bought the small leather prong collar from GDS for my Brittany and am unsure of how tight it should be for training. The collar is leather, with 1/4 long blunt metal studs on the inside. I got the smallest size, which should be good for him since he is only about 40 lbs. But I wasn't...

Thank you all for the replies. For clarification, I didn't start out with putting the dog on the collar, but was following the instructions of my trainer during our first session together. On a semi-related note, is it possible to do the gun introduction with my dog alone, if I dont have a...

My collar does have vibrate and tone, so I will look into those options with him. At this stage, is it better to get him exposed to birds in the field with a check cord, or should I be letting him range out a little more with the collar on? I won't be shooting over him at this point since he...

That makes sense. He has not been fully trained with verbal/whistle commands yet. The scenario that led to this situation is as follows: I took my dog for a one-on-one training session with a guy. After doing some basic obediance training work inside, we head outside to have my dog get some...

Hello All! This is my first post and I'm happy to be here to learn from you all. I have a question about introduction to the E-Collar for my year old Brittany. Heres a little background: My wife and I got a male Brittany earlier this year, fully understanding that he might not have hunting...
