Gundog Training Forum

a little update - apparently she is doing brilliantly well. Her response to commands is sharp and she has a good nose on her. She will be going trialling when things start up again. Im so pleased for her. The rest of my dogs are all really settled and we seem to be in a nice routine again Thanks for...

well.. an update . I feel I failed in what I set out to do, however I homed her with a gundog trainer - after a lot of research into who the person is. He trials on a National team and teaches other people. We met up and walked the dogs together and he really liked her so I let her go, on the unders...

munstyman i love your intelligent approach and yes, of course , you are right!

i dont think so... but it's definitely one I'll think on more and be aware of. whats my reaction (LOL) tbh it's been going on so long now it varies from muttering under my breath to tears, to many expletives to sheer hysteria and rocking in a corner with a bottle of gin !

there is no way I would pay for a non health tested pup. However I did pay 1500 for my youngest wcs, she is off superb lines, not just 'ftch' but a line i researched and waited almost 2 years for.

I found her in the utility room, IN THE BELFAST SINK (!) gobbling down the raw food that was in there defrosting! Needless to say we had several accidents follow...

to be honest i think 1500 is a very fair price for a health tested, proper pedigree dog.

I hope noone minds me keeping coming back to this thread as its very handy for me to keep as a kind of diary.. So all clean and dry since the 30th until today, so 6 days. Last night all chaos broke loose at home on the farm with a veterinary emergency. She was out first thing as usual, had a good ru...

thanks CC - i spoke too soon today, but its just a blip! So she was out first thing, fed. Out for a good run and toilet at about half nine. Then she was put in her crate (beside my other bitch so not alone) with her kong as I went into the yard outside to jetwash. I had my wcs dog with me, just mooc...

Pleased to report I still haven't had to clean out her bed...
