Thanks for introducing yourself, I am hoping more will do the same eventually so we can build a small community on here.

Truth be told I am a Springer man as well although at the moment I have a fairly motlry selection of dogs.

I must say though that if I were going Wildfowling on a regular basis I might want a Lab or retriever for that, Springers get to cold ;-)

My name is Jon Ballard. I'm from the United States were I run a business that helps US hunters find hunting guides and outfitters. This is a great looking site and I'm interested in hunting in your part of the world so I thought I would join up and introduce myself. I'm looking forward to meeting you!

Best Regards,

Jon B.]]> gamebirdhunts Welcome Mon, 21 Sep 2009 15:20:40 +0100 http://www.planetgundog.co.uk/forums/13/43/100/_subject_#msg-100 Re: Hello http://www.planetgundog.co.uk/forums/13/43/100/_subject_#msg-100
Welcome to the forum, we are very new but I am hopefull that more people will stop by and say hello in the next few months.

I must confess to never having heard of a Braque d'auvergne however having Googled it I have definitely seen them around, nice looking dogs !

Good luck with the hunt for a springer, once you have had a good one there is no substitute of any breed ;)

Tim]]> tim Welcome Thu, 23 Jul 2009 16:19:10 +0100 http://www.planetgundog.co.uk/forums/13/43/99/_subject_#msg-99 Hello http://www.planetgundog.co.uk/forums/13/43/99/_subject_#msg-99
Stumbled upon this nice looking site while researching/planning the purchase of a part/full trained ESS for my husband. We live near Brecon, Wales with a pig, some ferrets, many chickens, a pony and fluctuating numbers of kids and dogs, depending on whose we are babysitting at the time

We are Flat Coat lovers at heart, but even so sometimes a springer would be useful!

Also very interested to know if anyone has seen anyone in the UK with a Braque d'auverge. Old and now rare french pointing breed, black and white with ticking. Very sleek and much smaller than english or GSP's. Surely I can't be the only mad woman with a passion for them? If you want to check them out google some images. I hope to get a website built soon with some info and as a way of getting in touch with any other people hunting for them. Rumour has it that one was spotted many years ago on a grouse shoot in Scotland, but i've had no luck in pinning it down.

Look forward to reading up on the posts here..

Best wishes,

Sally]]> sallywags Welcome Thu, 23 Jul 2009 14:53:38 +0100 http://www.planetgundog.co.uk/forums/13/43/97/_subject_#msg-97 Re: Hello http://www.planetgundog.co.uk/forums/13/43/97/_subject_#msg-97
Sorry for the delay !

Welcome to the forum.

Thanks for the kind words !

No problem with a new category, just wondering how you think I should set it up, what to call it etc.

Just thought I would say hello from Morayshire, superb site...

I was wondering if you might be adding an accommodation section to the site... as we run a dog and gun friendly self catering property in the Morayshire....

You guessed it - he is called Merlin! But he is a Golden Retriever rather than lab - the snapshot shows him at just 12 weeks or so, and he looked like a rather fluffy lab! He is quite short coated and is now very dark compared to the pet goldens you see which are often almost white - he is almost fox red - fortunately the keeper where we beat has a no ground game rule!! I am considering getting another one as he is so good around both the house and when working - that is what led me here, but no goldens on offer yet :(]]> Merlin Welcome Wed, 17 Jun 2009 09:50:29 +0100 http://www.planetgundog.co.uk/forums/13/43/51/_subject_#msg-51 Re: hello http://www.planetgundog.co.uk/forums/13/43/51/_subject_#msg-51

Yes he is a working dog, very fast and stylish. Quite a shock how much he enjoys to work actually, as yours though just a young dog and still maturing.

Problem with cockers is one is simply not enough they are very very addictive !!

Not so sure about that ! We have a Golden indoors with him, the golden is a saint compared to him :S

I do him an injustice really, he would probably do well in trials as he does not have any faults apart from being too keen, I may run him this year.]]> tim Welcome Mon, 15 Jun 2009 18:59:09 +0100 http://www.planetgundog.co.uk/forums/13/43/47/_subject_#msg-47 Re: hello http://www.planetgundog.co.uk/forums/13/43/47/_subject_#msg-47

Thanks for coming on and saying hello, sorry about your losses !

I got my first cocker over a year ago, I am a springer man, my god ! What dogs they are, if I had known what I know now I would have left him there ;-) Only joking ! He is actually a bit special but a real handful.

Nic, as soon as I know how I will change you to moderator if I may ? Hope you are well !
