That's cool he ran test dog. Ted, I think the hook is set, no need to put tension on the line

Congrats Lainee, Great job

I had to share this. Today we had 2 young ladies run dogs for the very first time in the Jr stake. One of these young ladies is visually impaired and was able to get permission from AKC to have her...

Those factors are important. Problem is you do your best to set up a test and what do you do if the wind shifts? How do you deal with tree lines and shadows early morning vs late afternoon? What...

There have been many threads with similar discussions on setup with a just picture. Some assumptions are made and yes you can't know everything unless you have boots on the ground. That doesn't mean...

I like working on skinny angles for water, cover. Multiple entry exits. Any of these marks allows you to correct for "cheating", avoidance and ultimately gives the dogs confidence to attack various...

meant to say retire G1 and G2, not G3 that is the go bird.

G1 - You've got multiple angled land/water entry/exits and as a retired gun they may hang up on the 2nd piece of land than push through to the last section of land. Squaring land may put the dog in a...

slicing the water and some cover changes

Gavel was obviously loved and had a great life with you. Our lives are made better by having them so intertwined with us. I hope your memories of him lesson the pain of your loss. Wonderful pics,...

I feel I can do better. I try to help folks in our club as I've been helped. I'm mentoring a 16 yo with her dog. I do say good luck to my fellow competitors and MEAN it. If they beat me that day...

Funny you should mention that. He was out in the back forty yesterday doing his business and when he was done I called him and whoa nelly, here comes the freight train, jumps onto the back porch and...

My 8yo female is about 48 lbs. Lots of go and we've got AA points but honestly she's at a disadvantage with cover, line of sight, etc... and I think judges don't normally think of much smaller labs...

Red's all growd up. ;)

Our hearts are always lost to those who give unconditional love. Sorry for your loss. They are never with us long enough.

11 inches with 3 ft drifts, I feel your pain

A question I would have for you is if you didn't get the cast the first 2 times, why didn't you change your cast to something else? Maybe a come in over or something different. If you didn't get the...

I've got 3 and haven't had an inadvertent turn on (that sounded weird). I highly recommend them as I live in the country and when I air the dogs, each has it's own color so I know who is where.

I couldn't agree more

Mike,
Happy Birthday. You can come train with us snooty FT'ers anytime. Free labor you know. Glad your knee feels better cause I'll be walking your a$$ out another 450 yds to plant the blinds.

gooser,
You show up to training with gold teeth I'm bringing pliers. Have you seen the price of gold?? I'm thinking Sofi can hold you down while I do an extraction. NO COST TO YOU.

My house, monday morning. 11", wind drifts up to 3ft.

I'm sure you have. Just thinking out loud. Of course my boss tells me don't think, thinking hurts the ball club. Sounds like you have fun training, which I do as well. Each dog needs something they...

Once again thanks for posting your work. Again I'm sure you've probably considered a multitude of options but at the risk of being redundant here goes:

You have suction to the right along with a...

Thanks for posting your work. I'm sure you've probably run and/or considered a multitude of setups so bear with me if I ask a question you might have done or considered on this setup:
