Me too. It's super hard to not train my puppy right now. I just want to get out and hunt with him, but he's only 15 weeks now!

I just have to make sure he doesn't form any bad habits.

Kennel/crate trained - check

House trained - sorta check

.22 trained - check

Fetching - check in the house, outside not check. (just runs away with tail up whenever he's outside!?!?! he fetches in the house really good though)

Hunting - that'll happen next summer. can't wait!

Sorry for hijacking your thread about your pretty little puppy.

Jack.........i'd be more worried about obedience at that age than fetching!!

Does spending 3-5 hours per day playing, and teaching commands such as come, sit, no, etc. count as "obedience?"

If so, I think my dog gets more obedience training than the average dog.

I can teach my pup to fetch if I want to teach him how to fetch. I never make him fetch distances more than 15 feet.

My dog, my rules.

Just saying. I'm not a fan of other people trying to tell me what to do when they've never seen the dog or how he acts. He loves to fetch already, and apparently it's a big "no no" to teach puppies how to fetch nowadays.

There's a thread with a dog the same age that's flushing birds and pointing, and nobody says anything negative.

I guess people just see me as a less intelligent person.

Wow, I'm crabby tonight! cry

Time for bed.

Nice lookin dog.

I'd have to agree with Todd, the training is "almost" as fun as the real thing.

Its about workin' and interacting with the dog that is the fun part for me as well.

Shooting something is always a bonus. grin

Definetly agree here! It's a blast putting in the time with the dog and seeing that little light go off in the dogs head on how things are to be done. Training is alot of work but even more fun. The thing that made me feel the best was finally getting in the field and seeing all that time and effort pay off and also to see how much fun the dog has as well!

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.

      I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
