rickyspringer 15 Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 personally I would use a FTCH Drakeshead dog,get intouch with them or have a nose on there website.... I would use the stud which is producing good dogs,instead of using a dog which has come out of him. Quote Link to post

Outstanding dog Open F.T.W Greenbriar Falkland Quote Link to post
rickyspringer 15 Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 looks like a very good dog, heard quite abit about greenbriar labradors, hapy to go with your recomendation waterpower.... but what is your view on using the dog which sired him??? Quote Link to post
druimmuir 1 Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 Having seen the dog in action, and what he produces I would also highly recommend Carole Clark's dog Murphy, I will be using him on my own yellow bitch come time, cracking dog, honest and sound, and very consistent, would chose him over drakeshead any day but thats my personal view Nic Quote Link to post
EskdaleHawks 8 Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 how easy he have he been for training and do you use him for shooting? Training was a doddle. I trained him to the gun and have used him for picking-up but not beating. I certainly wouldn't part with him. If you are going to get a Drakeshead bred dog,I would recomend an untouched dog or pup and train it yourself. If you need help, then find someone in the know to show you the right way to do things. The worst thing you can do is just bumble on and hope you get it right. Good luck! Rod. Quote Link to post
