  1. I've only got an airgun and was working today. I'll keep my eye open for future posts. Looking at shotguns now but wanted permissions for justification to have a shotty. Shame :(
  2. Would also benefit from posting local people only so everyone doesn't get hopes up...
  3. Will buy a book guys. She has working parents. Was given up owing to violent relationship split and dog in training crate for 9hrs a day. She's only 11 months. Reluctantly given up in interest of fairness.. Separated from another dog and taken on by myself this weekend. There is no indication or signs she has suffered any abuse. Very happy and intelligent. Sits and goes down at moment. Quick to learn. I know it's not going to happen overnight. Happy to put time in and started with air rifle to gain permissions and progress to .22 LRs and shotguns. Didn't want to rush in and although I like a precision shot but im still finding my feet in these very different pursuits. Am not looking for miracles to happen but to start training her and familiarising myself with the breed
  4. Guys, I've acquired a Springer Spaniel bitch aged 11 months. I'm currently looking for land permissions for an air rifle with a view to moving into fac rifles/pigeon with a shotgun but am a relative beginner. My question is what initial training can I complete with her towards being a working gun dog. Can anyone steer me in the direction. Im obviously not looking to her being perfect overnight but any training suggestions or anything I can start doing with her when I'm out would be appreciated. She is quick to learn and extremely intelligent and I'm hoping she will take to some training that would assist whilst engaging in my hobby. Regards, Hookie
  5. Also just acquired a lovely 11 month old springer. Any training tips appreciated
  6. Evening guys Just thought I'd say hello and looking forward to being an active and contributing member to this community. I'm 36yrs old and live in Clifton Bedfordshire. I'm an airgunner looking to dip into further classifications and certifications. Currently using a Weirauch HW97KT and looking for shooting partners and land permissions in Beds/Herts/Bucks (In Wanted thread) Feel free to message and speak soon Rich
  7. Hi guys, Recently moved to Clifton Bedfordshire and looking for Land Permission or shooting of pigeon, Corvids or vermin in the Beds/Herts/Bucks areas and even beyond for decent permissions. I'm obviously canvassing but good permissions are hard to find.. If anyone knows of any or willing to take a shooting partner please give me a pm. I'm a 36yr old serving policeman currently sporting a .22 HW97KT and BASC insured. Can and will travel, can and will pay for good permissions. Disheartened to live in countryside and to not be able to find anywhere to carry out my favourite pastime.. Any help or advice appreciated Feel free to message me. Am also monitoring the paid thread.. Regards Rich
