Hi, I'm Eric with Lion Country Supply and I'm here today to talk to you about the one of the newest e-collars by Dogtra. It's called the Dogtra ARC, which stands for Advanced Receiver Concept. The main point of this collar is that the receiver is more ergonomically shaped. When your dog is wearing it, it looks as if your dog has a regular collar on. As you can see it is much lower profile, which is helpful if you not want it to be seen as much or you don't want it sticking out as far to be bagging off brush while you're running your dog.
A little bit about the collar itself. It has a three-quarter mile range and it is made for low to medium stimulation levels. So if you have an extremely stubborn dog this wouldn't be the collar you'd want for it. However, if you have a dog that's not that stubborn this is a great system.

Hi, I'm Eric with Lion Country Supply. I'm here today to answer a common question that we have; how do you use the Pigeon Restraint Harness. So I have some pigeons here and I'm going to show you how to put the pigeon in the harness.
The mesh goes across the back of the bird. You take their head and put it through the hole and the mesh goes across their back. The main thing you want to remember when putting these on, these are very humane, you don't want to take the strap and wrap it across their belly because you'll wind up cutting off the birr's air way. What you want to do is go back behind and put on like this. That way the bird still can't move but you're not cutting off it air way and it can still breath. Then you can just sit it down and do your bird work with it.

Benelli shotguns have proven themselves again this spring in Pennsylvania. With a combination of Benelli Super Black Eagle shotguns and Hevi-shot, my 19-year-old son, Connor, and I were fortunate to harvest two nice gobblers. Con's bird sported a 10-inch beard and spurs that measured almost 1 1/4 inches. My gobbler had a similar length beard, but...

I recently got my hands on the Dogtra ARC, which is Dogtra's new and low-profile remote dog training system. Designed to be very slim and blend in with the collar around your dog's neck, it is the perfect discreet dog training device. The hand-held is small and light weight, making it great for carrying around your neck or in a holster on your belt. The Dogtra ARC training system is suitable for wearing out for a run at the park, while still allowing you to have that e-collar control of your dog without the anti-electronic collar looks from strangers.

Recently LCS owner John Koritko showed me his "bird man's grip" on some quail he was planting for his pups. He used it as he transferred the birds from the bird carrier to his bird bag and then again as he tucked them into some cover. It really doesn't matter which fingers you slide there legs between, use whichever you find the most natural.

As hunting dog owners we think of the spring and summer as training season for our dogs when in reality one of the best things we can do as hunters is a little training of our own. A lot of us take a long break from quality trigger time and then chalk up early season misses to being rusty. Here are some simple tips to make sure that doesn't happen and you are as prepared for the season as your dogs will be.

It's tough, pun intended, to find anything wrong with my Ruff Tough kennel. It's incredibly lightweight for how durable it has turned out to be. The option to have the door open on either side seems like a small thing at first but is very useful and makes it easy to load the dog no matter where I end up with car parked or which side of my vehicle I load the crate into. One tip: With this style door, always make sure the pins properly seat back in place when you close the door, if they don't and you open it from the other side, the door will pop right off. It's simple to pop it back in place but something to keep in mind.
