Hi all
I'm raj and i have a year old GSP named Bane.  We live in the Kent area.  It's my first ever dog but have been in the field shooting over a GWP a number of times.  Bane is progressing well (i think) with the training.  He retreives the dummy seen and blind without any concerns, looking for direction if he can't find it.  He is an awesome swimmer and retreives well from water.  Training has been and still is very trying. Boy he is stubborn and wants to do things his way. He is still very immature and wants to play most of the time.  Pointing is proving to be a difficult part of the training to crack as he prefers to chase the birds.  I'm hoping to get some advice on this aspect of training in the training section. Well looking forward to getting to know yall through the forum.   Great to have a forum where you can meet and chat with people with the same intrest and love for working dogs.
raj

It's only stubbort because it's male.  If it was a female it would be Bl...y impossible.

I'm the 'someone' and I guess I have been called a lot worse than 'b.......y impossible'
