How hot is it outside when you are FF'ing. Heat and stress make them pant. Some dogs give just a little less effort to hold in these situations. Any of the above recommendations will re-enforce...

Hips- Good
Elbows- Normal
EIC- Clear
This is great. Everyone has a very clear reason why they do what they do. I had a pro at a master test tell me his dogs never see anything smaller than a quad. I remember thinking to myself "that...
Not looking for an answer just hoping to spark a good conversation and hear ideas.
I have heard to shoot 80% singles and 20% multiples. I know of pros that only shoot multiples.
The topic of...
Thanks for all the help Brad and Justice. I think I have found all the info I need.
Throttle back on everything. He is showing confusion and both of you I am sure are frustrated. Make it fun for him again. Hup hups, marks with birds, whatever it takes for as long as it takes. ...
Justice Dog. That is exactly what the vet told me. Are they incorrect in that statement?
So I just took my BLF in for OFA and EIC. The vet clinic was unsure of how to do CNM and they do not have the CERF capabilities. Can anyone out there walk me through the procedures for CNM. or...
The first question we are gonna ask is where are you in training and what are you wanting to teach? We'll go from there.
Not neccasarily Ray. On my Creative Trailer, the door and the top storage are two different keys. TLo send me a PM as a reminder and I will dig one of my extra top storage keys out tonight.
I have only ran one senior where we ran the blind before the marks. Walk to the line on land..there is a gun station on the left and the right. left gun quacked, right gun fired a popper as the...

Try bird in mouth singles. When he returns to heel with the bird in his mouth get him ready for the next mark. Shoot the mark. He should be focused on the mark. Remove the bird and send him on...

Keep working. Stay calm and give lots of praise. Pup understands pressure it sounds like. Praise for the behavior you want. Also with more confidence usually comes speed.
I use birds for all of my marks. If they go in the water, when I get home I put my bird dryer on top of the A/C unit. Fluffs em right back up and then refreeze. I feel like sometimes my dogs lose...

Good to go! Thanks for the honesty
Polmaise, I am not sure if you are being sarcastic or genuine. Just for me please let me know. It makes sense in my head but may not be. Won't get my feelings hurt if you were being sarcastic.
FOM, don't you think that the dog is using the white coats as a crutch. By shooting singles within 100 yards you are teaching the dog how to mark. He has to keep his eye on the movement in the air....
When you spend more time looking for places to train during duck season than you do scouting for ducks.
Brush in the gunners until you can barely see them at 100 yrads. Then make the marks so enticing that the dog has nothing else to look at other than the bird. If that means live flyers, flashers,...
I am not usually a chocolate guy but those are awesome pictures. Great Looking Dawgs.
My female is on and off when it comes to her heat cycle. Seems like every other cycle we can work through. Then on the odd ones she is worthless. She just stays home when we take the other gun...
