A quick refresher course never hurts. Start simple and just check to be sure everything is still dialed in the way itwas when you stopped, and polish anything that seems to need it. Won't take...

In the beginning, competitions were used to find the best dogs of a breed. Today, dogs are bred for specific competitions rather than for the breed standard first and then competitions, and I don't...

No pressure. What I like to do is have another bumper in my hand as the dog is returning, and twirl it a couple of times as he gets close to attract the dog's attention. That usually makes the dog...

The biggest influence on how I train? There are two. First are the several hundred dogs I've worked with, each of which has left me with some new knowledge that influences the way I do things. ...

Howard, I don't know if WWUJD would work for you, but I've never seen you get ugly with anybody either so it may not matter....and I don't mind one bit if someone disagrees with me. I enjoy a...

I was thinking about this thread today. And one of the people I miss the most is Unca Jerry. He could jump in and give somebody a smackdown when they needed it and make them feel grateful for...

:::::sound of applause:::::: Wow! Way to go....congrats on a really special achievement!!

You can't give a correction before teaching the skill. They've gotta know what you're correcting them for. :)

I've been hanging around here for a lot of years, and I do miss the old days and many of the posters who either just left or have passed on. I truly do miss those folks and those times.

And I...

Very cool...congrats!

Heck, why not get a Brittany for a duck dog? ;)

In just ten days, I'll be driving south to Illinois to pick up my little Ginny from Nancy Pals. :D:D I can hardly wait! And for good measure I'm tossing two Chessies in the truck since I've gotta...

I agree...Drathaar, Griffon, Pudelpointer, German Wirehaired Pointer (yeah, I know....but don't ever say to a Drathaar person that their dog is a GWP and visa versa).
And cross Spinone Italiano off...

I work with and train all breeds and have trained several Weims. They would be at the very bottom of my list as a potential duck dog......actually wouldn't be on my list at all.....and within the...

There isn't enough glucosamine in any dog food to make a difference (if it makes a difference at all). But it does sell dog food. ;)

The prong collar has a faster release than a choke chain. I don't own or use either one, preferring my Delmar Smith leads.

I'm thinking maybe Prozac....

Happy birthday, John!

My estate (ROFLMAO...what estate?? ;) ) is set up so that power of attorney is passed on for those purposes.

I'm quite confident in mine. And because I give a solid guarantee (and I back it up) and make sure the dogs I breed have clearances...and I guarantee the pups will be able to have the same or will...

I can't see charging more for full registration. I want them to spend that money on health clearances...not on my holding the registration hostage. ;)

Most of mine sell on limited, with that being lifted once they've turned two and have all the appropriate clearances. The exception would be someone I know and that I can trust will be competing the...

A mile means on the Bonneville Salt Flats without a blade of grass in the way. ;) I always figure half o f whatever the advertised range is. And it's always better to have more than enough as...

There shall be no "peeing upon" here. :)

Of course it is. ;) If you are a fan of the Harry Potter stuff, it makes perfect sense, and especially since it's my last name as well.
