The OP's problem is his location. In this region Giardia is part of the normal flora and fauna. It is found in every lake, pond and small stream. Unless you're going to make your dog live in a...

My thought is hypothyroid or broken tooth. Thyroid issues usually start to show up around three or four and this dog is right there. Broken teeth can happen anytime and cause great pain for the dog.

Well, responses you get on this question will likely vary by breed.

Limited Registration is common with Golden Retrievers and has been for quite some time. The same is true for many other...

To understand the bad taste that a lot of folks have with Pro’s in hunt tests, you need to understand a little bit of what it takes for those events to be successful. It’s real easy to understand...

You hit the nail on the head.

I think what is needed is to require the owner of a dog to be a Member of a club that actually hosts field events. If you want to sign up your dog, enter the name of...

I feed Eukanuba Premium Performance and have for a very long time. Pro Plan Performance, Nutri-Source Performance and Dr Tim's are good options too. Pricing does vary somewhat by location so you'll...

Not mine!

Mine is about 6 weeks younger. If Chris says it ain't his, my money is on Dubya. He lost his old dog not too long ago.

I train mostly with dead frozen birds (ducks and pheasants) for marks, bumpers (dummies) for blinds. Flyers (live birds) requires more careful selection of training areas. If we're training in a...

Thursday is Flyer day during the training season.

Tealgrove's Juicy Prime Rib, call name "Ribeye"

Round trip, yeah probably.

Around here we usually see two flyers in Junior, unless the conditions dictate otherwise. (Unsafe to shoot live rounds)
Skanky waterlogged half rotten birds should not be used for Junior dogs. There...

#1. Breaking

#2. Handler Error

#3. Weak Water Blinds

I think his location has a lot to do with his local price structure.

You have to get the case sealed up properly again after the batteries are replaced. Collar Clinic has the technical skill and experience to get the job done properly. That's the route I would go.

I train with a couple of dogs that are affected, both have cast iron stomachs.

The Field Trial and Hunt Test community isn't all that large.
It doesn't take long for word to get around when something happens that shouldn't.

I got bit by the retriever bug in 1963.

I'm just going to throw rocks. ;) ...

Thank you Ted!

Merry Christmas!

I've been shooting a 620 for the last ten years for pheasants. It's light weight, easy to carry hunting gun and hasn't missed a beat.

Mine were very well behaved until they learned about the open treat jar behind the counter.

Because of the breeds that went into creating the Golden Retriever, once in a while you'll get a dog that points. There really isn't any way to predict which dogs will point. (even from the same...

You're in MN so my first thought woould be Giardia. It can be a real bugger to get rid of when the pup is re-exposed every time it hits the pond.

Actually many goldens go back to FC Rip. Dogs from Stilrovin and Tigathoe for starters. AFC Yankee Smokin Red Devil OS is one of the more recent well known dogs in the line.
