What type of hunting is most important to you and what are you wanting from your dog?

Contact Patti Benton @ ladylabtrainerX2 Good suggestion but if you join please be wary of who you take advice from in these groups. Sometimes members think they know a lot about dog training but the truth is sometimes a particular person does not. There are knowledgeable trainers in these groups and there are less knowledgeable trainers. Make sure you are talking to the right person. I know there is a member of Cowtown HRC that has a couple Boykins. I would find out who that is and contact him directly about what pros he has used for his dogs.

I've got a 12 week old Boykin as well that I'm working through Hillmans puppy program so I will be watching this thread as well Patrick. Thank you for posting it.
