thanks gatzby for advice. um he doesn't turn away from me he comes right to me but refuses to give the bird up even after i let him hold it for a bit. of course at that point he starts to hard mouth it and i have to pull that flank of skin to get him to give up the bird so to say.

Thanks for the suggestion I'll give that a try as Well. I think even though he fetches I'm going to force fetch him my self I bought the dvd seems pretty straight forward just requires a lot of patients and to go at the pace of the dog. I'll Prob do it after season is over. Thanks for all the...

Gatzby My gsp is E collar conditioned. My other problem is he gets greedy and doesn't give up the bird. Like I said my trainer recommended me to tell him the give command and pull on the back flank of skin and he opens his mouth. I've tried it and it's worked so far but Damn thing refuses to...

Hey guys what's up and merry x-mas. Hope upland season is going good for you guys. I live in southern California and I've traveled couple hours to find this Damn chukar and I'm in all the right places but all I wanted to do was just see one run up a hill or something I would of been happy :) me...

I think it's expensive as well... This sucks trying to figure this out. Thanks for suggestions and help

I'm in Socal. My trainer basically said I payed cheap for a stage 2 dog. I payed about 2800 total. He was telling that even I can do it my self and for me to train him to FF or he charges 1400 to FF for me.

this sucks I can't afford 1400 to have him trained to FF. Like I said he is perfect at bringing the bird to hand as soon as the bird goes down, but if I don't lift the flap skin on his back leg and say give he will start chewing hard.

Hey guys I got a 2 year old gsp. First season hunting him, when my trainer trained my gsp he had such a soft mouth.. We shot like 10+ quails he retrieved perfect and on give command he gave up the bird. Our of the blue he started to chew the bird on his way back to me after a perfect retrieve...
