    Porcupines On The Prairies

    I used to see quite a few in NE Montana, but rarely in central SD (maybe never?) and occasionally north of devils lake. I wouldn't worry about it to much, but I'm sure there is always a risk in both states. Skunks have always been my nemesis in any state.

    At what point do you retire your dog?

    I don't know what you should do, but here is what I'm doing since I'm in a similar spot. Dutch my 12.5 year old that is still very healthy for his age, he cannot handle heat and doesn't have the stamina that he used to but I plan to hunt him this fall. He will hunt duck opener on a small pond...

    Hunting 2 dogs

    I didn't figure that would need to be said. Maybe I expect to much.

    AKC lab puppies

    Thanks but I have all the dogs than I need right now. I was just trying to help you get the information out. Hunting Lab Pedigree is fantastic, links to OFA, CERF, Paw Prints etc. Add a link or find someone to help. Screenshots suck... Unless you have something to hide and I'm not saying you do.

    AKC lab puppies

    Might work better if you post a link to Hunting Lab Pedigree's. Your screenshot is impossible to read, at least it is for me.

    Training with a second dog

    I'm not sure I understand the question. If its how do I train 2 dogs, simple run your drill with dog 1, put him up and repeat with dog 2. If its how do I train the 2 dogs to hunt together. I always train them independently so they understand and have the necessary skill set, and then hunt them...

    Looking for gryphon breeder

    If you are looking for a Wirehaired Pointing Griffon, (I don't know what a Gryphon Pointer is). Get a hold of Joe Mix, he is from Grand Rapids MN and breeds some really nice field dogs. I know he just had a litter go home a few weeks ago so timing might not be good.

    Eye Protection for your dog

    Rex Specs work terrific I don't use them often, pretty much only when the weed seeds are crazy bad. The cool lenses are $10 more. Pretty much a waste of money but the dog looks bad ass.

    Pheasant and/or ducks?

    My Labradors are equally at home in a layout blind in Saskatchewan, flooded timber in Arkansas, or a duck slew in the Dakotas. But their (our) true love is upland hunting. They also love competing in FT's, competition hunts, and HT's

    Ruffland Kennels

    The intermediate should be perfect. Not to throw a monkey wrench in the works, give the Dakota 283 kennel a look. Its a really nice crate that bridges the gap between the Ruffland and the gunner.

    Extreme Dog Fuel

    Ouch, but still much better than the pricing at Petco etc. I feed a quality well known brand. It is right around $.96 a pound on the kennel program, to get this price you must buy a pallet at a time (24 bags 50lbs each). There are a few hoops to jump through for the kennel program but its...

    Extreme Dog Fuel

    I have fed a lot of of dogs a lot of food over the years. And just like you PPP or NutriSource have been the best. I currently feed NutriScource and will continue to.

    Extreme Dog Fuel

    I didn't see anything special about this food, the lack of corn bothers me a little, but the lack of dealers in my region is a BIG deal breaker. Seems like a fancy name with not much to back it up. PS Please Please Please no one quote Dog Food Advisor. That disaster needs to go away

    shotshell speed

    I agree 100%. I would even take it a little further, its almost more of a feel. Bird flushes, and if I swing through the shot properly the bird is dead.....but I cant tell you where the bead is when I pull the trigger. If I don't shoulder the gun properly or follow through then the bird flys...

    SD guides with GWP

    There is a guide at Firesteel creek near Isabella that hunts a bunch of them furry critters. His first name is Steve, lives in ND, wears a cowboy hat. Ill try to remember his last name (its been a few years since I worked there). I think he may breed a litter occasionally too.
