Started dog?

Postby mallardchaser » Tue Dec 20, 2016 7:42 pm

My lab died 2 years ago. I don't have time to train 1. Any suggestions?

Started or field trial "washout"

It depends. Mainly I would want to know why the dog washed out. If he washed out because of noise, steadiness issues, crack head type behavior,etc he would not make a gundog I would want to hunt with. If he washed out because he just couldn't mark well enough to win field trials then you could end up with a great dog. A dog like that usually sells for considerably less than what was spent on the early training. A 2-3 YO FT washout should run nice blinds and do multiple marks. They usually sell in the 5-8 K range from what I've seen.

If you are still looking PM me. I know a guy in TN who has a black male. Awesome blood line and I've seen him work in person.
