The barbet survive as a gundog (hunting dog/chien de chasse)? So, how is this to be achieved? Working gundogs (in the UK anyway) are not required to chase; they are required, only when commanded to do so, to run out, pick up and bring back a shot bird or animal. IF a bird or animal has been shot,. But not killed,. Training op...

We live in rural West Wales, at about 300m, on Mynydd Llanllwni. Our back gate opens into 8000 acres of Brechfa Forest - a dog's paradise.

WHAT IS A WORKING GUNDOG? Although definitions for “gundog” abound, a definition of the term “. Gundog” is not readily available and is for some, apparently, less easily made. The most commonly quoted definition for “gundog” includes the phrase “a dog trained, or bred, to assist in the. Hunting, flushing and retrieving of game”. Obviously all breeds classified in a “Gundog” or “Sporting dog” group (terms vary according to country and kennel club) were bred,. At least if they are K.C. recognised b...Ldquo...

I have heard that it was three Labradors left by people for two hours while they took their children to the f...

A VERY WET SATURDAY! It might not look it from this photograph, but believe me it was a VERY WET day on the shoot last Saturday.

I am not saying that this is a recent development, merely that it appears to. To be on the increase. Whether or not it is a new thing, I wonder about the motive(s) of such people! Owners or tr...
