lampinglurcher 36 Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 well, the big day's finally here (tomorrow) and i can honestly say we (dog and me) have done no preparation or extra fitness/training at all! fortunately the 1st of the season usually has a few screw ups so maybe we'll just slip by unnoticed... ill take some pics throughout the day tomorra and of the end result. this is my retriever bitch ill be pickin up with tomorra, now 2 years old.

lampinglurcher 36 Posted October 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 lads im a mong i know... so sorry i left the camera behind!!! ill take a pic of the dog with a brace of pheasants tomorra. day went well, 167 birds put down including 1 pigeon...the gun that shot it said he couldnt see clearly...maybe thats why there were no more birds put down!!! my little bitch did really well, steady as a rock but when i sent her out was brill, straight to the bird (most were runners) and then straight back to my side. a good day had by all. matt Quote Link to post
lewismac1 1 Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Alright, Have you found your golden to be a bit "headstrong"? i know it sounds strange but i was just wanting to know cheers Quote Link to post
lampinglurcher 36 Posted October 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 i know what you mean fella, most that ive seen have been, but when mine seems headstrong ~ thinks she knows better its ususally because she does. like if i send her out to retrieve a downed bird and shes marked another one she'll still pick up the one i want.. so no she aint really headstrong like that.
