In this episode, Chad sits down with Brad Arrington of Mossy Pond Retrievers for a deep dive into the world of hunting dogs. From breeding and health clearances to training, etiquette, and nutrition, Brad brings decades of experience to the table.
They cover it all! From the age-old question of how much protein a working dog really needs, the impact of conditions like drop tail on performance, and why warming up your dog before a hunt is just as important as warming up a professional athlete. Brad lays out how temperature, diet, and discipline play into building a dog that can perform season after season.
This conversation is packed with insight for hunters who want to bring the best out of their dogs, whether you’re raising a new pup, tuning up your seasoned retriever, or just looking for ways to keep your hunting partner healthy and sharp.
