Hunting Dog Supplies Reviews

Reviewed by: Brian Parsons, LCS Telephone Specialist I just tested the new SportDOG SportHunter1825 training collar while hunting with my Lab and am very impressed with the new system. SportDOG has introduced a cradle charging system for the receiver while the transmitter is more traditional plug system. Another improvement is the 2-hour quick charge batteries Continue reading?

The LCS Better Chain Gang has become a permanent piece of equipment in my truck. It is very convenient when training, hunting or field trialing to stake multiple dogs, without having to pound a stake for each dog. They cannot tangle and will take up less room. It Continue reading?

I have been using the Better LCS Crate Pad in my Vari-Kennels for my Labs. The 1000 denier nylon cover is water-resistant, not waterproof, and after finishing a hunt I can unzip remove the cover, throw them in the wash and my dogs have a clean, comfortable kennel for the next hunt.

I have been using the LCS Tip-Up Bird Releaser through the fall of 08 when working with my lab steady to flush. Also, I have used it with friends who are introducing their young flushing dogs to birds in the field as well. The Tip-Up Bird Releaser works very well and is a helpful training tool. 

I feel the LCS Red Cedar Bedding is the ultimate! It comes in ribbon form - not in the messy, eye and nose-clogging chips. It seems to provide greater warmth for my dogs and works as a natural tick and flea deterrent, and usually does not get moldy after Continue reading?

I like a heavier, more substantial whistle lanyard around my neck, versus a thin lightweight piece of nylon or similar. What I have not liked in the past is the high price you have had to pay for a nice leather lanyard. The Avery Classic Whistle Continue reading?

Reviewed by: Randy Carlson - LCS General Manager I used the LCS Adjustable Umbrella Stand (and camo umbrella) while judging at a recent multi-day NAHRA Hunt Test this summer. The forecast was for sunny days, with scattered showers and I hoped it would be useful for both conditions. The rain held off, but the sun Continue reading?

Frontline Plus really works! We have two dogs and like in a very remote, wooded area. Our dogs spend a lot of time outdoors. Ticks and fleas are a very real threat. Since we have begun using this product, we have not seen any fleas or ticks on our dogs. I would recommend purchasing Frontline Plus to anyone who has dogs...

With the exploding popularity of The Garmin Astro GPS Dog Tracking System, many users are looking for accessories that will make their Astro even more powerful in the woods. One of the best accessories for these units is the Gamin Map Source Topographical Maps. 

Reviewed by: Cathy Carlson - LCS Customer Service The LCS Deluxe Crate Fan is one of the best crate fans I have found. A couple of unique features really set this fan apart. First, is the adjustable thermostat that really does work well and helps to extend battery life. The other is the blue ice Continue reading?

The Garmin Astro has certainly been one of the more exciting new products LCS has introduced over the last year. I write this review from the perspective of having played with the unit quite a bit and talked with many of our customers who have used the Astro.
