There was supposed to be a picture of our new red lab pup. Waited almost a year for him. Guess I should have figured out how to post pictures before he got here

. Hope I train better then I use the computer or I just bought a real expensive doorbell

. I will keep trying.

click on additional options right below the reply box, then click browse, then find your picture, double click on it and type something and click post...don't try to preview it.
you are trying to post the pic like it is a web link off a host site, but it is not so it won't work.

Beautiful lab! What's his name?

jackelope · « **Reply #7 on:** March 04, 2009, 08:44:06 PM »

way to go.
great looking pup.

Birdguy · « **Reply #8 on:** March 04, 2009, 08:46:49 PM »

This is the kids meeting him right after school today. Looks pretty good for spending most of the day on an airplane. My hunting party is now complete. I must be crazy look at all the training in those pictures.....can't wait

Birdguy · « **Reply #9 on:** March 04, 2009, 08:52:56 PM »

Thanks guys. As for the name my son is named Brett and I call him a different name almost everytime I speak to him (nice names) I called him Bert, Bort,Bart and Bartimus a lot so he named the pup Bartimus Mudflap but we will call him Bart. I do not know where the Mudflap came in but I do not think there will be much of a problem with an original name on the registration.
Gasman he will see his first birds this weekend. He is the reason I have the birds now. Thought I would get him last summer so that is why I had the birds to sell you. This year he will see hundreds of birds even if they are all raised here

Thats funny, your daugter is drooling over him.

Michelle_Nelson · « **Reply #15 on:** March 05, 2009, 09:27:50 AM »

I've never heard of a Red Lab befor.

My husband says thanks. Now we have to have 5 dogs and not 4 (Yellow, Black, Chocolate, Silver Labs).

It is a variation of yellow. If you look it up on the AKC site they recognize 6 shades off yellow and "fox red" is one of them. And no silver is not a recognized color!

I am going to try to breed my female to a dog about that color!

Brandon

Michelle_Nelson · « **Reply #18 on:** March 05, 2009, 09:41:07 AM »

Yeah I knew they didn't recognize silver. They do exist. A member on here has one. And another member has a chocolate with the gene. If the AKC did recognize them I believe they would fall under the Chocolate phase if they did.

Happy Gilmore · « **Reply #19 on:** March 05, 2009, 12:11:08 PM »

Great looking pup!

benbo30 · « **Reply #20 on:** March 05, 2009, 02:16:49 PM »

silver is recognized but they fall under the chocolate catagory , you can have a akc registered silver dog but the papers will show chocolate , i believe they used to be recongnized as silver on akc papers but there was a huge controversy on it. at least this is what i read ..... im gonna be looking to get a silver in a few years once my labs are older , i have a yellow pup and a black lab ,

Is the silver color something new or what?Cause last time I looked it waasn't a recognized color.

benbo30 · « **Reply #23 on:** March 05, 2009, 04:36:19 PM »

good looking pup i like the color , now all i have to do is get a chocolate , silver and a red one like yours

twisp_river_slayer · « **Reply #24 on:** March 05, 2009, 04:41:36 PM »

Thats a great looking dog!!!

Birdguy · « **Reply #25 on:** March 05, 2009, 05:54:01 PM »

Thanks, we got him out of Iowa. A good friend of mine has a few north of Spokane. I had to make sure he was from good pointing lines and not related to my friends dogs for future breeding. I love the personality and being bred as hunting dogs makes them a lot different then the pet quality ones I have always had and hunted. I assure you, there will be lots of pictures on her over the years, hopefully with a few of the other new pups that have showed up on the site over the last few months. Perhaps this fall we can have a dog meet as well a member meet. If we can find a place I can bring some birds for fun!

benbo30 · « **Reply #26 on:** March 05, 2009, 07:39:58 PM »

i would be happy to meet , ill bring both my dogs

Nice pup Dave, lets take him along turkey hunting next month.

Birdguy · « **Reply #30 on:** March 07, 2009, 08:42:56 PM »

Brewzer I am sure he would be up for going but it would have one of your grouse sized ones ones for him to retrieve it. If I get as lucky as I did last year there is no way he could even come close to draggin one of those monsters out to the woods

. I am ready to go though, I need a few days in the woods.

I've got the first of this years crop of pheasant in the brood house now, and chukar in the incubator.

Birdguy · « **Reply #33 on:** May 02, 2009, 08:40:48 PM »

Old Dog, I been pulling chicks from the incubator this week as well. The pheasants are laying good, but the huns and the quail not so much. My mountains are actually laying the best of my quail right now. Good luck with you hatches. How many chukar did you end up with? Perhaps I will get some eggs from you?

Old Dog · « **Reply #34 on:** May 03, 2009, 12:18:11 AM »

Chukar eggs? How many do you need? I'm getting about a dozen and a half a day right now, and my incubators are full.

Birdguy · « **Reply #35 on:** December 26, 2009, 04:40:41 PM »

Updated picture of the little fella, another year or so of puppy attitude then we get serious

. Hope to get him his first wild birds this week. Wish us luck

DOUBLELUNG · « **Reply #37 on:** December 26, 2009, 05:48:33 PM »

Gorgeous! Not to thread jack, but in the color discussion ... I am guessing the white ones fall under yellow?

snakerivercharlie · « **Reply #38 on:** December 27, 2009, 12:36:51 PM »

That is the most amazing lab I have ever seen. That is a very intense color for a dog. I wanna know where you got him too

highclimber · « **Reply #39 on:** December 27, 2009, 03:29:59 PM »

Birdguy · « **Reply #40 on:** December 29, 2009, 06:41:02 PM »

Yes, the red is a color variation of the yellow (darkest yellow you will likely see). I got him out of Iowa, there is a great breeder in Chewelah (just south of Colville) that has a few. Look up "morgansredpointinglabs.com". Jim has some awesome females that hopefully I can breed mine with in another year or so.
He got his first real point yesterday

, I thought it looked pretty good but I am biased. I would love to have a picture to post but the camera did not work in 12 degree weather

.
Thanks for the comments guys, it is always cool to hear other folks like what you got to share.

TEX-X · « **Reply #41 on:** December 29, 2009, 06:50:49 PM »

he's a brute....

Birdguy · « **Reply #42 on:** December 29, 2009, 07:05:19 PM »

He was sure fun to watch blasting through the brush and weeds to last two days. He would BLOW through anything jumping up and down hill, while my gsp just slid through underneath it all, you could not tell she was even there sometimes. They make a pretty good pair. I just need him to get up more roosters

, have to work on that I guess.

TEX-X · « **Reply #43 on:** December 30, 2009, 07:14:40 AM »

i took my newer GSP grouse hunting last weekend and we got in some pretty thick stuff.... everyonce in a while you would see his head pop up over the brush.... it was pretty funny... I've actually seen a dog of his color and build before... you get the color and the wider frame from crossing a chocolate lab and a sorrel quarter horse

good luck getting him on the birds! keep us updated

That is funny

. He will come around I am sure. It is late in the season and while we saw some roosters NONE were near close enough to shoot

. I am thinking he will be just great for some new dumber ones early next fall. He will get his fair share of work over the next 9 months then, lookout.

Great looking dog! He reminds me of my buddies Lab-Chesapeake cross. That was a hell of a dog
