Congrats Bill!!!!

Congratulations Richard!

I was so disappointed to miss it.

However, my mechanic is pleased

Not that i know anything, but with a 12 week old pup, I also generally limit retrieves to 2 or 3 and put them up wanting more.

I prefer to introduce birds in a very controlled setting. My favorite place to do so is in a large baseball dugout at a local ball field. I like to introduce the birds and ...

All dog.....lol
Congrats Alan & Fatty!!!

Congrats!

Is the dog collar conditioned? If so, then I would work on basic OB in the yard with the e-collar.
