Can anyone recommend a Gundog Trainer near to Stoke on Trent? Willing to travel upto 30 miles as long as the training fee`s are not too high. ATB Nick

Cheers fella, that is exactly what I was looking for, its for the dog to get over too as she dont wanna catch her goolies either.....err if you know what I mean Many thanks for all the tips ATB Nick

I`m trying to get hold of something to wrap around barbed wire so I can climb over fences without catching my goolies I`ve seen one last year, its a thick piece of nylon with velcro on the edge, wraps around the top of fences, when not in use just wraps around the sling on you gun slip. Anyone know what its called and where I can get one from? Many thanks Nick

Pidge, good clips and tips This forum is worth its weight in gold. ATB Nick

Thanks for some great advice I`ve got 4 weeks until my pup arrives (Sprocker) She`s my first ever working dog and I`m really looking forward to training her, seeing her develop and one day taking her into the field on a shoot Pics when she`s here (thinking of calling her Bel). ATB Nick

Thanks again for all the info. My Grandparents live in Sandwich, might see if my Grandad fancies some shooting in the spring (he`s ex army, so would be up for it I think) ATB Nick

Thanks for the info, I`ll give em a bell. Looks a good ground for sure AYB Nick

Gents, I`m popping down to see the folks over Christmas, and my Dad has suggested we go clay shooting (he`s never been before). Can anyone recommend a decent ground anywhere near to Folkestone in Kent please? Many thanks, and have a bloody good un all Nick

Hello Shoot, welcome to the site, enjoy ATB Nick

Well done on a well written and interesting read fella :blink: I`ve not shot a fox either, and will no doubt have the same feelings, good to know I`m not the only one out there ATB Nick

I believe P-A-S use`s em loads, so they must be ok. Its a small shop, so you get the friendly service, prices seem ok too. ATB Nick

Well done on the safe arrivel, enjoy fella, being a Dad is great ATB Nick

Wise words from all, basic training is ok upto about 1 year, keep it all fun n reward based and dont pressure the pup. Try to encourage the intincts to hunt in grass etc, by throwing balls in etc, followed by loads of praise IF you get a retrieve! Its all about letting the pup develop in the right direction and building confidence, and your relationship. Most of all, enjoy ATB Nick

Thanks for the tips gents..... The season can`t get here fast enough ATB Nick

I just wanted to say a big thanks to Bazooka Joe for the beautiful handmade stag horn priest that he made for me. A real work of art, recieved it the day after paying, and he also took the time and effort to write down instructions on how to make one myself. What a top bloke. Cheers fella ATB Nick
