Painting Decoys can be fun and a great project for a couple weekends or after work a few hours a day. I normally take a stiff brush and wash the old paint of the decoys. Let them dry and spray paint...

I was told by my vet that the incontinence was caused by spaying too early and the muscles do not develop. All of my dogs have been spayed and only one has had incontinence and she was spayed at 6...

Congratulations! Must be fun watching the daughter do similar work as her mother. With them both running the same level does it tend to motivate her mom to show who is the top dog?;)

I am almost positive I saw Euk 30/20 at Petsmart, in addition I know Intermountain Pet Hospital sells it.

I also tried numerous times but it is way too large. Just order the booklets they last for a few years and are much easier to deal with.

I enjoyed Lardy's DVD on Marking, I also like the details of a drawn out concept such as you have have in your books. You can never have too many ideas, concepts or diagrams to work off.... ;)

I agree with Harry, I would add that we always found it much more effective to use a live duck for the trail. No matter how many times we used a dead duck the dogs had a hard time figuring it out....
