  1. if the dog is so good why not go back to same dog which produced him.if it worked right once why not again that close only asking for problems down the line ATB

  4. time 2 stop the shooting over the dog and go back to basics dont listen to these boy s saying a cocker wont pick up of a peg . All dogs will it sound like u are giving ur dog to many retrieves so for the next few weeks u do all the picking up maybe give her 1 at the end of a training session. but the key is to get her before she gets the retrieve and put her back to where she was.it might seem harsh but u know she can retrieve so work on her steadiness ATB Andy
  5. Depends what you are going to use it for? If you are looking for a dog to go beating then a springer or cocker would be a good choice and if you are wanting a dog for picking up then a lab or retriever would be my choice. Cheers bud will be used for bushing and gun wat kind u got coming

  7. cant wait to get it out and try it on foxy . Had it at targets yesterday at 50 yards furlest from bull was 1" but rest i had wasnt 100 % steady getting my mate to zero it for me next weekend at range. ATB Andy
  8. hi mate get urself a long lead let the dog have a smell/play as soon aS U call and it dosent respond give it a gentle tug and when it comes back give it plenty of praise. It will soon get the picture and the pup should want to be with u so plenty of play and praise at that young age.

  12. would you not consider th .204 a bit more rangey and accurate on foxey with a lighter bullet 32g vmax statistics like 200yds dead centre 300yds 41/2" drop

  19. instead of squeezing its toes or kneeing it a simple way is to turn ur back and ignore it as soon as it sits down or stops jumping reward it ull have to keep doing it but ull be suprised how easy it works the secret to training any dog is REPEATIVE TRAINING just keep it simple and ull end up with a steady workable gundog atb with ur training
