You probably wouldnt train it to only flush woodcock, since the dog would flush various game, but it could only retrieve what was shot, and if the...
As for a cocking bird, I dont know what that is, never heard of it, certainly not in the UK anyway.
Am I right in thinking it has something to do with Woodcock? The smaller spaniels were used to flush and retrieve woodcock, the larger spaniels for...
It depends on the character of your dog. A dog that isnt mad keen on retrieving probably wont suffer from being allowed to run in, a dog like Flynn...
Hard to tell really, especially since collies are so diverse in their looks but I wouldnt be surprised if he was a cross. I wouldnt be surprised if...
I have asked some pointer people elsewhere, see if they can shed some light on it.
A search keeps bringing dogs up under Reg and Carrie Passmore - are they pointers?
Been to a mock shoot over day last year but have you seen these new assessments the HPRBA are bringing in? You can no longer participate in a shoot...
Exactly why I dont enter Flynn in SPT's!! We would just look like a pair of non-starters! I'd love to join one of Andy Cullens training days but...
Are you going through the HPRBA? I did consider it myself but cant justify spending the money ATM. I've always let Flynn run amok with his hunting...
I p1ssed myself when I heard you go "oooh"!! Been practising Flynn's quartering just lately and trying to get him familiar with the 'get on' command...
I used to do agility with 3 Finnish Laphunds and I can confirm that they were very vocal!
It means if you breed from a dog who's contract states "progeny not eligible for registration" then you cannot register the pups with the KC. I...
I wouldnt recommend an ESS if you dont want an excitable pup/dog. Can you give us some more ideas about the kind of dogs you like? Do you have a...
Like others have said, I wasnt aware it was an issue in the breed, no more than any other breed anyway.
The gundog breeds generally have an oilier coat, hence why the Goldie felt 'sticky' and thus they may be prone to being a bit pongy! certainly the...
I got sidetracked by Lindsay Lohan and her flyaway skirt, the nude scenes being filmed in a New York Hotel, Lady Gaga on the cover of some mag, Adam...
Last time I did the Grade 1 (several years ago) it was over £140 for 7x 1 hour sessions and a test on the 8th week. Oh, forgot to mention that you...
Oh yes, you can omit the classes and then just take the test if you think your dog can do that particular grade (well, you used to but it has changed...
Hmmm, i've done grades 1 and 2 but they were very slow bringing in the grade 3 for HPR's and TBH, I found far more suitable training elsewhere for a...
