I was just wondering what everyone thinks about dog box covers. I am wondering how warm they actually keep the dog box. Are you supposed to keep venting open? Is there a point at which its too cold to use and keep the dogs warm? Any knowledge or advice would be greatly appreciated!! thanks jf

Thanks for the kind words and well wishes. So far she has been a sweetheart and her and my five year old are becoming best friends. I am just looking for her to have fun and be a puppy for the next month or two before I get too involved. Will have to wait til around six months before I start...

Hey guys I know im not an avid thread participant. But I'm just too excited and had to share. I picked up my second GSP this weekend. She is solid liver and 12 weeks of age. I have a five year old boy now and they have gotten along fantastic so far. My five year old dirk was my first bird...

Hey upland I would like the email to inquire about the one year old gsp if its not already gone. thanks JEF

Sorry to hear about your loss. I am on my first bird dog still and am dreading the day that happens. Keep your head up and know you got a hunting buddy watching from above. Good luck in your search for a new pup and do your best to keep your head up. JEF

I went out to wester ks this weekend and scouted some of the land we like to hunt. The cover was looking 10x better than it has in three plus years. There will be a lot more land to hunt this year and that's a good thing. We didn't see a whole lot of birds until this morning. We did happen...

I always tell myself every year that i am not going to hunt during rifle season. But i always seem to do it anyway. Tomorrow I am going to hunt the benedictine bottoms. I won a special hunt there and have no idea what to expect. I figured since im already out i might as well head to nc...

Has anyone ever hunted the benedictine bottoms. I was selected for a special hunt there this season. I have buddies who have hunted up there for waterfowl and love it. But I dont know anyone that has hunted upland birds up there. Just looking for a little info.

Thanks duck and everyone else on there input. Like i said he is a good dog and a little obedience reminder never hurt anybody. This is all part of the process i just wanted to see what everyone else thought on the subject. Good luck this yr boys hopefully you all can see some beautiful dog...

He is a 2.5 yr old. He is already collar conditioned. I had him trained for 5 months starting at 6 months. He already knows the word no its just if he catches one out of my range and i dont see it fast enough. Which i understand is probably my fault. It happens only a couple times a year...

I usually only hunt with one other guy and his gsp. His doesnt range like mine does. I trust my dog to get out. He has bumped a couple here and there but thats gonna happen. I too have noticed when i loose him in the crp a rooster tends to jump somewhere and thats where he is. At first it...

Curious of what everyone believes the proper range is on a gsp?

Gentleman i have a gsp who works the field great. Listens well and usually is an all around exceptional dog. But when he gets on a rabbit he looses all control and takes off like a bat out of hell. Forgets all about me and just takes off. If i can see it from the get go and hit him with the e...

Two roosters pointed and shot first thing saturday morning. When the sun got up we were getting into roosters still they were just flushing too far ahead for a shot. Not as many as i would of liked to see but better than nothing.
