We got a Brittany this year and I took her out for the first time on a puppy walk at 6 months this season. The interesting thing I found is that because I live on the west side of Washington, she immediately recognized that she’s on the east side and behaves completely different when we are on the east side because she correlates the smells of the sage and terrain with hunting. She’s an absolute beast already. Absolutely love her!

The topic is pointing obedience? If the dog goes on point it has succeeded. After that we are in steadiness not pointing

Can this be done without the table and bungee setup? I just don't have that available, but would love your suggestions. Great stuff. Thanks

Dogs haven't changed. People have. Training has.

How fun is it to train a bird dog if you have to think about ALL this non sense? Really easy to train bird dogs of any breed that doesn't have to be this complicated. It is good to understand all this stuff, but more confusion to those that don't understand it. Simplification is your friend.....Black and White world.

I remember hearing a number of retriever trainers remarking that the more ubiquitous and sophisticated use of the e-collar allowed softer dogs to be trained up to a proper standard. The general consensus was that with the hard physical training methods the soft dogs either shut down or were so worried about the correction they couldn't work. As I understood it, the dogs lacked both the physical and mental resiliency to deal with the methods. The e-collar allowed a softer and quicker correction that didn't overpower the soft dogs personality. Maybe that's why people think dogs are softer because they're seeing more soft dogs working than there would have been in the past. One of the trainers did worry that dogs were losing the ability to independently work out a problem with overuse of the e-collar.

I have a 8 month old english setter. He is hard running. I have been trying to slow him down because to is blowing past birds.

What is a Grif?

Can't wait !!

I have noticed how some dogs hunt with there human and how some humans hunt with there dogs. I have worked hard to teach my female GSP to stay a little closer because I can't move like I used to. She does a good job of staying with me as I walk and she has taught my male puppy to do the same. He has a tendency to range a little further but he also will hold a point forever, so it works out.

That's so cute ngl I want to pet one 🥰

Now my head hurts, what language was this explained in, not redneck, country or good ole boy. WOW

No, you don't teach the point but you might teach the hold of the point.

Dang Impressive!!

How do you address noise? I have a dog that gets stressed on backs and vocalize leaving the line. Never on marks so I knowing stress.

If the dog drops it what is your response?

Glad I found your video. I started to train my 1 yr old lab for duck hunting. Was getting ready for force fetch and found you. Not a fan of the hand in mouth and string around paws. Will you be doing more videos to keep going or only doing force fetch. Would love to keep learning from you. Thanks

I can see the convenience of the mechanism,but you can get the same job done it looks like by having a helper put the treat down instead of the machine.But yes,it makes everything more convenient with the machine if you are doing this process alone.

What’s your thoughts on the 28g for pheasant?

peent

Not sure if i missed it but at what point does food get removed from the equation?

Very interesting video, I learnt alot. I run a malinois for security and as a bird dog (magpie geese) Best wishes from Australia

What sound box is he using? I would love to find something like this for our groups training sessions to work on people's timing.

Has the episode with Bob and Jeremy been taken down? I can't find it.

Shout out from your native area of long Island. I have a small munsterlander and everyone I train with says I shouldn't have her on fur. I grew up rabbit hunting and the fact this breed does both was the whole reason I got her. We have no wild birds here but our rabbit population is always great.

MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEÉEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP.

Just went on my very first pheasant hunt yesterday and got my limit solo with no dog. Before that all I ever did was deer hunt. I’m definitely in love with it.

S/S or O/U, garbage guns....

What is the make and model of the treat dispenser? Thank you

> Anybody listening to this isn't getting a bite dog Not true!

Boils down to this. There is absolutely zero difference on target between a 1 oz load (of no. 6 shot for instance)fired from a 12 ga, 16ga, 20 ga or 28 ga at say 1200fps provided patterns are adequate.😮 Its the same load going the same speed with the same amount of pellets. All about the correct choke and ability to hit your target. 28s are great for lightness and ease of carrying. They most likely will be the start of the end for the 20ga. Much like the 20 did to the 16. Still the best gun is the one that fits you and you can hit with

Good talk!

Great episode! This show uncovers what we all should know by now. There is NOT a set or given way to train our dogs. Your personality, the dogs personality, what you want to accomplish, how you hunt, family environment... All come into play. What was apparent was that there was a ton of knowledge being thrown around and if I wanted to get smarter I needed to rewind and listen carefully and take notes. Thanks again for the informative and helpful podcasts as well as showing us all the pretty faces.

This was a good conversation. Thank you !!!

Damn we all agree😂

"We need you to argue with another trainer..." "Ok no problem!" *You walk in and it is Nate "Oh laaaaaaaaaaawd!" :D

The ad is still playing and I already love this episode.

Brittany! 100%

💪💪💪

My pup will be 5 months next week perhaps I will take him for a puppy walk this weekend

I understand the logic but do not agree or believe there is a part of the conversation missing. Timing is the word. To shoot a bird that the dog hasn't found or pointed is simply an exercise in your dogs retrieval skills. Yet to shoot a bird that the dog has bumped because he ran right thru the bird or pointed yet will not hold and continues to creep until the bird flushes, this only reinforces the bad behavior and it isn't easy to break those bad habits by rewarding the dog with a bird to retrieve.

Really enjoyed this conversation and I totally agree with the logic.

I'm working with my 6 month old pup. He is coming along pretty good. Sometimes what i need is input on what I'm doing wrong. Which will help my pup learn quicker.

Listened on my way back to Ohio from chasing December Michigan grouse…I found the conversation about the West method and your comment about teaching “whoa” interesting and timely. I have a 1.5 yo griff (steady to flush mostly/sometimes) who will be working in steadiness to shot (maybe fall) this spring. I have been struggling with the ambiguity of the West method and had planned using broad concepts of West along with teaching the whoa command.

GREAT episode Nick. Around 50:00 the conversation about not "feeling" like you are making progress is SUCH good discussion. Some friends wrangled me in to a FB dog training group where we post a short training video every day. I see videos from 6 months ago where we are struggling with X and now X doesn't even get attention in our training because it has been going so smoothly for weeks or months. I liken dog training to someone losing or gaining weight: if you see them every day, you don't notice the very subtle daily changes; if you see them once every 6 months you think "Oh my gosh what a drastic change!?" Same with our dogs man. Thanks for all you do with GDIY!

I am so glad I found Gun Dog It Yourself. I am learning alot !!

Great channel guys. Very informative.
