PocketLab, that's what I am talking about. Man, my big boy just gets bogged down in that mud.

I am not originally from Louisiana. When I first moved down here I noticed that a lot of folks were...

Not as an adult, but when I was a kid we had a female that was an epileptic. I am pretty sure her first seizure what when she was around 2. We medicated her daily and were able to keep it under...

I have heard this way too many times. I don't breed my dogs, so all of them get fixed. It has done nothing to affect the desire to retrieve in any of my dogs. Frankly, it has made it easier to...

I can tell you that if you are hunting in the marsh, size DOES matter. I really can't take my big male out. He will just sink in the mud. If I hunted more in the marsh, I would own a Boykin so...

Sure I do. Who doesn't? Don't you?

Of course I don't. He is afraid of things that move under his feet. Boat, ATV, back of a pick up truck and etc etc. Never has liked any of it. In the...

Another small step. After feeding him for longer than a week, throwing fun bumpers for about 5 days I finally took him for a short slow ride.

I would ride to the end of the drive way with him,...

Lazy afternoon on the porch after working

They could do this all day long.

Wow, thats more than I would have suspected.

I would suspect its like humans, it all depends on the size of the dogs as to what they need. Mine is in the 75lbs range. When I am not hunting...

Thats awesome! I heard about your dog last season. Just amazing!

Just curious, where do you hunt?

Both my labs stay out most of the day unless it is too hot. When we are home, they come in. My big hunting dog sleeps in my bedroom and my young gyp sleeps on the bed with my daughter. Wouldn't...

Watching the video that was posted in this thread http://www.retrievertraining.net/forums/showthread.php?t=72821 got me thinking. How many calories do yall feed your dogs? I don't start working...

Thanks for posting. Very impressive dogs.

If you have cable/direct TV, get it through them. Usually it is faster and cheaper if you bundle your services.

I couldn't agree more. If it has the breeding you are looking for, then go for it.

Although I hunt a male, I am more partial to girls. I got him in a similar situation. I wanted a female,...

Small break through. After working with him this evening and seeing how much he was loving "fun bumpers", I decided to put him on the back of the 4 wheeler. He was hesitant, as always, to jump...

This is it.

Two days of eating on the ATV and he is nervous as hell standing up there. He can't eat fast enough. Its funny, eating in the truck he is fine. Threw some marks and he was more...

Yes there was. Thanks yall!

Linda, its not the noise. To him, the noise means its time to go hunting. He loves it. He gets excited as hell. When he hears the four wheeler crank and he isn't going with me, he is ticked...

Oh man, I tried him in a pirouge once. He wouldn't stay in it. Couldn't even get to the point of him flipping it before he would jump out. Maybe I just need to go buy a pirouge. If he will...

All that is great info when I can get there, but in the mean time is there a way to work on it? Like I said, the camp is two hours away and with life its tough to take four hours to train him up. ...

I have a bit of a problem that hopefully yall can help me with.

My 4 year old YLM hates to ride in a boat. (Also hates to ride on my four wheeler) The two times he has been in one he wanted to...

I very well might be in the minority, but I completely agree with the tethering provision of the bill. The rest is BS though.

Me too. :D

LOL...Best of luck with that!!!!!
