Kevin, I'm curious to hear how your repaired Beretta works out for you. I have a A400 and have nothing but problems with it. First started out, it wouldn't cycle 3.5" shells. I shipped the gun back to Beretta and they repair the gun for no cost. Apparently they were aware of this issue...

I think Scott Adams and Eric Patterson have done a great job explaining the side affects you get from cold water training. I hope some see the light! But.....I guess, as the old saying goes "You can't teach an old dog new tricks!!"

Tod, is that how you greet all new comers? You have offered zero input on this discussion! I thnk Scott has a legit question and I am curious to hear the responses.

Kevin B - You have clearly not read my post very well. Your response makes absoultely no sense! But I will humor you and answer your questions: Neither, if you read my post, I said it was a training setup! In my senario, I clearly said we are running a BLIND. How does he know he...

Just so I get this straight.....your logic is: If you want a dog to be able to hunt in Cold Water, you have to train in Cold Water? Scenario #1: You head out to train some water blinds. You set up a 250 yard down the shore water blind in January (Cold Water Conditions). You send your dog...

Training and frolicking in the water for a swim are two extremely different tasks. Don't get them confused! Sure, any labrador will go for a swim on his own in cold water for fun. But we are talking about training!! Demanding a dog to perform a task in training, in cold water, is a...

Tod - Not sure what your mean by "Calling me out?". But my post is quite useful. The last thing I want to see is, some new dog trainer read a post like this and think it is normal to train a dog in January. It is NOT. You are absoultely correct! Why add any additional factors (ie. cold...

Tod - too funny! I don't even have anything to sell, so why do I need to post in the classifieds? Training and Hunting are two different things. In my opinion, you are not gaining anything by training in cold water conditions. The only thing you are doing is potentionally giving your dog a...

Water work in the dead of winter? ?

I always enjoy checking out other people's hunting dogs in action. If you have some pics, post them up on this thread....I'll start:

I like Scott's idea. I've been a member since 2009 and I read this forum on a regular basis, but I still can't post in the classified section. I'm new to waterfowl hunting and don't have much experience, so I don't comment on peoples posts, in fear of sounding stupid. But I guess those are...
