Scared of dogs huh. I was at a FT duck was thrown near waters edge. a very large snapper went after the bird, young dog went to pick up bird and got bite by the turtle. Took some time to get the...
I used similar panels in a indoor kennel run for my moms dog never a problem but I can see carols point with other dogs and fights. One thing and this is just me. I think you have four runs right? ...
Make a pontoon with pvc and plywood.

yep. my dog does this also. maybe a little bit of a bother but hey he is doing his part to keep the world clean. Mine only goes for them when he does not smell a bird.
Here is the type of firearm to get. First are you in open spaces, flat prairie country. If so go with a 223 if you live in a area that is more populated and has woods and heavy cover go with a semi...
I have one and have used it out training. As dustin stated 0 mag which means it is hard to see at a distance. Wide FOV so it works great to see what you are doing on the line. Could set out by...
The wild rose ones are very good but expensive. I like the flagman bumpers, half black half white with streamers for nice contrast on most backgrounds.
second on the canvas bumpers. They don't sink into the snow as far and they don't brake. For marks I usually stomp the area of the fall so the bumpers don't disapear.

Shaw while all due respect all dogs will break. The hunt I just came back form was 5 guys in lay out blinds with 4 dogs, all tied out. 10 shots fired was common and birds hitting the ground within 5...
Use a tie out stake. Just got back from a week long hunt all dogs were staked out therefore no breaking issue. If it was my dogs turn and he tried to break or was vocal to bad for him he had to...
Have you done some shooting around the pup?
I also have used one dog to build drive and to encourage a water retrieve. Make sure dogs get along very well so no fights which will defeat the purpose. Also it may be your dog needs a break. I...
