WGD Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 I don't know much about them, they are an HPR breed so will undoubtedly be a ball-acher to train. Saw three in a scurry at the local gamefair recenlty, didn't exactly storm to the top of leaderboard.

casts_by_fly Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 back in the states a fair number of guys were using both large and small munsters to good effect in various bird dog trials. There is one that lives down the street from me (not a working dog) and is a nice dog. It is still a puppy and is a bit rambunctious but otherwise a nice dog. Personally, I think you can do just as well with a GSP and you have a lot more choice in breedings. thanks rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdunc Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 Spoke to a chap who had a couple at a gamefair last year. He reckoned that they made ok working dogs but were prone to giving too much tongue - he ended up just having them as pets. Apparently in their homeland they yap when on a scent / trail.

anser2 Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 I nearly got one of these dogs back in the spring, but was put off by the experiances of some owners. They seem to be prone to running when on a scent. But look back 6 months or so in this section and you will find a couple of posts on musterlanders and links to more information.
