MadSpringer Posted June 27, 2004 Report Share Posted June 27, 2004 LB I have met and spoken with Tony Price on a number of occassions at game fairs! He's a decent chap and writes regularly for Sporting Gun! He's mainly a spaniel man but also trains a few labs. I personaly would be happy to buy a trained dog from him if I was happy with the standard of training and the price asked! If your are going to buy a fully trained dog make sure you get a demo of the dog in various situations and around plenty of game! Look to see if the dog is happily working and eager to please! If you have any doubts don't buy it! A fully trained dog should also have at least a seasons experience in the field. Also look here http://www.felsteadgundogs.com often has dogs advertised in the southern softy area If you are looking for a dog be prepared to travel!!! Try these!
