Ordered my GSP Pup!

Recommended Posts

I finalized my order for a GSP pup this week. I ordered from Dave Bruns at Minndakota Kennel just north of Mitchell, SD. I've got a buddy that's running one of his dogs. They are some of the most talented, driven, and great natured dogs we've seen. Minndakota Kennel breeds for specific traits they want in their dogs. Pups are bred for natural ability to point, back and retrieve. They must be biddable, and have the desire to please. Not only are they bred for hunting, they are great companions for the entire family.

FemaleDog should come into heat sometime in Feb/early March. I'm hoping for my pup to come home late May/early June. Can't wait.

With my weim turning twelve in February, I'm looking forward to a young dog to train and that will have drive in the field. The retirement next year will be bittersweet, but at least there will be a sweet side to the bitter.

Here's pics of the breeding pair:

The male: Minndakota's Hahn Von Baroque

Congrats! I put a deposit on a pup out of Willow Creek Kennels in Little Falls that will be ready to come home in April! I had a GSP for 12 years and after 3 years without a hunting partner we are getting another! I may look at Minndakota for a puppy intro program, looks like he has good set up. Enjoy!

Tough to beat the training at Willow Creek. Consider either letting them start the dog for you right away or sending up there for training. You can get incredible results if you start training the dog as early as 3 months of age, particularly a pointer that gets access to a lot of live birds.

yes, I like chad and his people. they helped me through the process which is why i ultimatley went with willow creek. I am going to bring my pup back up at 6 months and put her through a 4-6 week program (fits my budget) and do work before and after on my own. Good to hear more postitives about willow creek! cant wait for my new pup!

Well, the female didn't come into heat at all. But the breeder was able to get me into another litter. They were whelped 6/27. I will be picking up the new pup on 8/20. Wish I had her a few days earlier, but I'll take what I can right now.

I'm getting one of the liver females.

    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • 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.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • 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.
    • 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.
