Joe Irving's book is great, but one thing i would say that dint work for me with my ESS is that i should of taught her HEAL as soon as i could. As she started to pull all the time and want to dash off to do her own thing. luckerly a friend pointed me in the right direction. If you want a Pro's advice, give Andy Cullen a ring at www.laochingundogs.com he's real top bloke and knows his stuff, he's helped me out no end of times when i need a push in the right direction. Other then that, dont EVER introduce it too cold/warm/any form of game till its brilliant on a dummy, as mine now will nev

speak to Andy Cullen, top bloke and really, REALLY knows his stuff! www.laochingundogs.com

Hi mate, shot there this summer, was good last time i was there! just take it steady down their drive, there are sleeping policemen/ speed bumps or what ever you like to call them, and if your vehical isnt 4x4 then its a nasty suprise!!!! other then that, top ground and friendly staff!!!

http://www.tuffies.co.uk/dog-beds.asp#waterproof these are the business mate, well worth the money!

ohh your gona have some fun with her mate! my springers 10 months now, absoulte pleasure to have with you....BUT by god she can be stubbon when shes got the sent of something, tho i wouldnt swop the anything for her at all!

i can definatly say Andy Cullen is the same, no nonsence and down to earth ways of explaining and showing what he means. you can also see the dogs he works love him to pieces and he treats them well.

my opinion from my experiance is 3/4 and full, (yes i know 99% of others like less choke) but this is what suits me, ohhh and i also find it clean kills them much better and they'll fall straight into your patten without you havin to go set them up!!! and if your missing, well if i do that, i look at the wind, how strong is it? if its blowin gently.... a good bit of lead, if its a strong wind an looks to be holding the pigeons in mid air/moving very slow. then start by shootin at the tip of the beaks then moving it out slightly more each time. YES im awhere that this sounds strange but when i

not woodcock, buti did see my first snipe the other day my dog put up!!

i was woundering who has pet insurance for their dog, and if so who with and are they reliable? i need to get some for the dog to come into work with me, so if anyone has any ideas feel free to inform me. cheers

3/4 or full i use, folds them everytime. and nothing gets peppered.....but what works for me might not for you. get out and see what does!! 28gm of No6 works a treat!!!

TransK9 mate, the boxs are fantastic!

the lads when on tour use, "sniper tape" ebay/google it comes in green or tan. when i used it, constantly for 6months, firing most days it needed replacing a few times but with the ammount you get on a roll that wont matter! and you can put cam paint on to it to yout liking! bonus is, it doesnt mark your barrel when you take it off either!

cheers guys, i tried what you suggested tonite on our walk and it worked a treat. tho i only did it twice as i wanted to make it worth while ones, and i had to wait quite awhile 'cus the pigeons had been on the stubble and left plenty of sent! thanks once again!

hi guys/gals my 4month springer has suddenly decided that she no longer wants to listen to the recall whistle, though she'll happly turn look at me then carry on with what she was doin!!! then come back in her own good time. would'nt mind if she had'nt already nearly got it down to a T! (i've only taught her to hup and recall, and left it at that as i thought it'd be too much to soon) and shes had it pretty much spot on till the last 3/4 days and now shes plainly takin the piss! so.... anyone got any good tips? many thanks
