Dog trainers??

[mudman03]

Ken or Chad Vidrine. Ken is in Opelousas area and his son is in Lafayette area. Ken had my dog finished at 9 months. Took him in at 6 months and he won 2nd in the Gueydan duck festival in the beginner division. As he was still a beginner and was his first ever fireld trial he lost to a finished dog that ran for one of the trainers mentioned above. Needless to say either one of the guys i mentioned are great.

That is impressive. Ken must be a phenominal trainer.

Kind of my thoughts, "Finished" has lots of meanings in the dog world. At 2.5 yrs old mine still isn't "Finished" but hoping to get there soon.

The truth will always come in time. Its my time.
I take it you are talking about the 2011 35th Gueydan Duck Festival Dog Trial. You have 2 things right. One, your dog won 2nd. Two, Your dog lost to first place dog named HUNTER. What you are not truthful about is 1st place was won by a 9 Month old dog DOB: 11/20/2010 that had never run a trial in his life. He was a nice started dog that could do single marks and deliver to hand. He ran dead last and in the heat of the day. He did a great job and was judged by a panel of 2 judges who evidently seen the same and awarded the dog 1st. The dog was just a client dog I raised from a puppy. Info http://www.huntinglabpedigree.com/pedigree.asp?id=23113 . If someone told you Hunter was a finish dog then that person was a liar. If no one told you that I don't have to explain any further what you are. I seriously don't think you heard it from your trainer cause I know them well and they have more pride in their work than to be slinging mud. I judge their dogs often and they have very fine dogs and don't have to make excuses cause dogs will be dogs on any given day. If it wasn't your dog's day so be it. There were 28 dogs in started and I personally would be happy to have any dog in the top 4 any day of the week. I ran several of my own dogs and they all lost but Im not crying about it. I started training for 2012. If the truth hurts so be it. Don't come slinging mud down my street with lies especially in public. On the flip side I Wish you better luck next time. The difference between me and you is I'd be hugging my dog if it won any of the top 4 spots. I don't have to cheat and my 1st place record at the Duck Festival is second to none and speaks for itself.
