re: Good shock collar brand

Posted by Bayou Magic on 7/26/23 at 7:24 am
Been training longer than I care to remember. I use a Garmin 550. Consistent, reliable, and give you more than enough stimulus options. Also has a bark collar feature that comes in handy. ...
I have Directv. Sometimes the login works but most times not. I know others have the same issue. Anyone have any suggestions? I’ve logged out, deleted the app, reloaded but get the same thing. ...

Field Trialer here. Been feeding Pro Plan for 20 years. Hard to beat. Full disclosure, Pro Plan is a sponsor, but that’s what I’ve feed forever. ...
The boat is a 2018 War Eagle 754SV. It’s the stick steer model with a 50 HP Yamaha and 24 v spotlock. I’m located in N LA, so a long way from the places mentioned. Anybody know of a reputable dealer in N LA that will do consignment? Bought it knew from Ludwig, but they aren’t interested enough to e...

3 yr old active field trial and gun dog. Fed Purina Pro Plan for the past 20 years with zero problems. Tried others but had inconsistent results at best. Once a day in evenings Fannie gets 2.5 cups per day plus whatever she steels from wife’s poodle. That varies from nothing to about a cup...

Looking for a cooler around the 20 quart size. Not really wanting to pay the Yeti price, but the number of knockoffs is crazy. Any suggestions? Thanks, fp...

Water Dog is very outdated and nothing, no amount of hype and marketing, can compete with a well bred and proven American Labrador Retriever. Lardy, Farmer, Rorem, and many others provide much better material. Even Hillman and knowning him somewhat that is a hard thing to say. Just do a lit...
I found the original photo. She was 21 months old when taken. In the pic below she was 16 months old. She had just won the Lone Star derby and placed second in the qualifying. [img][url=https://postimg.cc/sGhpSyQq][img]https://i.postimg.cc/qqmQPvkJ/C3-D34006-BBA3-4-A5-A-80-CE-3-C62-BF90-EA14.jpg...
I think she was around 18 months old when I made the picture. I’ve always trained and handled my own dogs, and Fannie is no exception. I’m retired now which certainly helps, but I’ve trained and handled an FC AFC and an GRHRCH while working full time. It can without a doubt be done. Fannie is s...
Fannie is 3 now but the derby award is for dogs under 2. The awards banquet was postponed twice by Purina for various reasons. ...

Her name is Bayou Magic’s...

To the OP, just do your due diligence before you select a trainer. There are some good ones around and a lot that are not so good. Regarding other info tossed out, very few breeders have the luxury of selecting their buyers. Only a very small percentage fall into that category. And never have I...
