Here's Kody pointing a robin in the back yard:

He's rock steady when he points. I didn't train any of it, it just started showing up on his first trip to SoDak last year when he was 7 mo. old. First with a bird here and there, and by the second trip a month later, he was pointing almost all the birds. It was sure a nice surprise!

On the way back to the front yard we flushed a duck and after watching it fly away, he put his nose to the ground and started quartering into the neighbor's yard. He was sure excited!

lenny, nice looking dog and point. Are you familiar with the APLA and the MNPLC? Lots of nice guys in the MNPLC in your area you could hook up with for training.

Thanks. I've heard of those groups but I don't know too much about them.

I did a google search one time to find out more about Kody's sire, P.D. Drake of Miss Jenna, and found that dog's owner posting on the APLA forums so I imagine that's where Kody got his pointing traits from because his mama don't point.

Ironically, when I google the sire's owner again, I see a thread on the APLA forums where you and Brad are discussing dog food brands.

Lenny, Brad is a great trainer and handler. He put on a show at the APLA event this past weekend. To my knowledge PD Drake does not have any pointing titles but does have a MH and QAA points. Nice pedigree behind that dog and I do know Hilltop's Hayseed has produced ponting labs. Who is the dam of your pup? Shoot me an email as I have some other important information I'd like you to know. username at yahoo

The dam is my cousin's lab. To my knowledge she has no titles but I've hunted with her for several years and she puts out a very good, workmanlike performance.

Email sent with more info...

No where special really. My female is from a guy in Rock Dell who runs NSTRA trials and the sire won region championship in Wi. My male I got from an old timer in Cosmos a few years back. Probally the most interesting guy I ever talked to. He was 70ish ran the local lumberyard, sold deer stands, had so many indian artifacts it was crazy and he was going back to Alaska to moose hunt later that week. Hopefully I still move that good at that age. Gotta love those gsp's.

Here is my 15 Week Old Pup First Time at the cabin. On his first experience on the dock, he followed his mom on a retrieve and jumped off the end with some style. It was fun to watch, and he really didn't hesitate much.

    • 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.
