Browning Gold, 3 +/- years old and never had a problem with light loads or any load for that matter.
The TCRC folks put on a good test and have a good time. Keep an eye on Entry Express for the details on this test.
Congrats on the 2 passes. Also if you were not aware the Treasure Coast Retriever Club has an AKC test the first weekend in November. They hold it in Okeechobee FL.
The Treasure Coast club has training days normally the 3rd Sunday of each month on property just east of Okeechobee. Check their website for addtional details. Treasurecoastretrieverclub.com
Did anyone watch the recent E-Clinic on the WaterdogTV website? If so what did you think of it and what are your thoughts on this "E-Clinic" concept?
I have a Stoney x Chilli breeding, Rainmaker's Tropical Thunder aka Harley who is a little over 2 years old. He loves to hunt and loves the hunt test games. He's my first lab to train and I did...
I ran my dog Harley at the TCRC Hunt Test this past weekend in the Started test. Those judges Jim & Karl were great. They took time with each handler and dog to explain how to handle you dog in...
I took mine for walks along a shallow canal when he was a puppy, about 10 weeks old. He would run along the edge of the water and loved it. Then somehow he got the idea to jump off the bank which...
All good replies. My dog dove hunted with me many times this past season. The heat can be an issue, get a shady spot if possible (for hunter and dog), a squirt bottle of water is great for washing...
OK my Lab is 2 years old. Does well on marked retrieves singles, doubles and some triples. Now not 100% polished on them, but good solid retrieves. I want to keep moving forward, so I'm starting...
Try looking for the Columbia brand on the internet. I know Columbia makes (or did make) what you're looking for.
Just asking as I have a pup sired by one of Torg's dogs, Stoney.
Any Sire & Dam info?
I just upgraded with Direct TV from a regular DVR to high definition with the HDDVR. They gave me the HDDVR for free along with 3 months of free HD and free installation. So far it's a great...
Costa's with a 580 lense are hard to beat. I had mine for a few years now they're great. I did send them back once as the rubber replaced around the ear piece. The customer service was fine.
Being a S. Florida native the sun has always been a part of life. I keep sunscreen in the truck at all times and use it the majority of the time. I've had many spots hit with the nitrogen and one...
I was using K9 Advantix the switched to Vectra on the vet's reccomendation. He tells me Vectra is as good if not better and a little less expensive. I have no complaints with either brand.
We had an above ground pool when I was a kid. My lab at the time, just a pet would climb up the pool ladder (which looked like a step ladder) to get in and out of it. As you might imagine we had to...
Thanks to all for the replies. The "Whistle Sit" link and videos were helpful. Now more training.
Hey folks I need a tip, some guidance etc on how to teach a remomte sit and drills to renforce the command. Presently I have an 18 month old lab, good on sit, here, heel & stay. He also runs...
I too am new at this and after much review I bought a Tri Tronics G2 Pro 100. I'm very happy with it. At the time Tri Tronics had them on their "Barkdown" page at under $300. Not sure if they...
Great job with such a young dog!
I bought a Tri Tronics my first e-collar purchase and I'm very pleased. I got a G-2 Pro 100 (last year's model) at a clearance price on Tri Tronic's site. While they are sold out I did see...
It was 36 degrees with a drizzly rain yesterday in the dove field. The birds were flying off and on. We only managed to get about 1/2 dozen but my young lab got some more experiance. We were layed...
