My thoughts were Cairn and Schnauzer.
I have found that they are very poor at coping with cold weather so i'm not surprised that they love the sun!
Perhaps along with a Brittany, a Weim is one of the most challenging HPR's. They are perhaps the most headstrong, they work differently (more likely...
The rescue co-ordinator has now changed so hopefully the GWPC rescue will be better managed and things like this wont happen again. IMO, if you...
A Brittany is a HPR!! I thought it might be our own KC who classes it as a HPR but the FCI class it within the pointing breeds too. It's deffo not a...
I understand what you are saying but as valuable as advice on here is, I did say it's not the same as having somebody right next to you. It's the...
If you want to get into this gundog training properly then your best bet by far is to enlist the help of a proper trainer. I'll help you by all means...
Thats a memory retrieve ;-) Patience doesnt come naturally to me (a bit like smiling) but I tried training without patience and it got me where I...
You have to weigh up how motivated he is for his retrieves. Flynn goes stir crazy for retrieving and I could spend a solid hour doing nothing but...
We used 1lb canvas dummies on Sunday. All were the same just different colours, think the puppy dummies are 1/2lb. We also used a plastic Dokken...
I dont want to appear like a know it all but a Brittany is a HPR, not a spaniel. This country dropped the word "spaniel" and they are just called a...

This is Flynn when he was a pup (he is a GWP x Slovak): [IMG] And this is him now at 3 years old: [IMG] Flynn is obviously the solid liver...
Is that a Brittany in the first picture?? Well, i've met enough GWP's to know that they have such a great outlook on life and are always doing...
Ah, they are judged on their steadiness but dont get eliminated. That definately counts Flynn out then!
Am I right in thinking they are looking for the dogs natural ability to hunt and style, not steadiness or brilliant control? I'm sure somebody told...
I went and had a look at one, funnily enough it was organised by the HWVA and held in Leicestershire. Dogs dont have to be KC reg which i've only...
I dont take any credit for the way my collies have turned out. It's obvious Jed is from pet lines, he's very low energy, isnt obsessive about...
I think collies are popular because their beautiful looks are so diverse and they can be obtained easily and cheaply. I'm not a collie person,...
Aussies have a different head to a BC (unless of course you are looking at a show BC which has a more domed head). I saw a gorgeous Aussie at a WT...
