RE: Pet owners warning

I definatly would not use the guy who uses a high powered shock collar.
You don't need anything more than the normal shock collar, set up properly they just get the dogs attention. According to my unit, start at the lowest setting and slightly increase the setting until the dogs ears react. My unit has 2 buttons, a very slight zap and a longer duration zap, all I have ever used is the lower setting unless the dog is really acting up. Have not even put the collars on in a very long time, all I have to do is show them the collar and they instantly start to listen to Us.
I agree there probably are better ways to train the dog, but with the rattlers I would not want to have to do it over and over and over.
Good luck with catching a rattler and training your dog :E

RE: Pet owners warning

was very impressed with the class . It was $75 for the first dog and $50 for each additional dog. Was worth every dollar to us. Plus you can bring your dog back for a refresser coarse at no charge. 2people did this in our class of 12 dogs. There dogs didn't even come close to where the snake was. So they deffinatly remember. The whole class only took 1 & 1/2 hours !
I highly recomend this for any one that takes there dog out where there are snakes.

Our Yellow would not go near any of the snakes, She was dragging Her feet as soon as we went thru the gate where they had the class.
They DO remember !!

RE: FOR IMMEDIATE ACTION

Unbelievable, there are more than enough areas for training. Between 29 stumps and NTC (Ft Irwin) there is more than enough maneuver area and live fire places.
Been in for 23 years now and have been to the NTC 9 times and still have not seen the entire area. Plus there is a live fire area there that just about anything can be shot, dropped, or fired. And i have never been to 29 palms.
Support it! I have never been to Johnson valley but if it were my riding area I would be furious.
The Army was trying to aquire more land in South eastern Colorado for the Pinion Canyon Maneuver area. The citizens have been fighting back now for a few years.
If they get what they want you lose a very large area to enjoy.
Dont let the Good Idea Fairy mess this place up!
THANKS for the SUPPORT
AND I JUST READ, The amendment has passed !!

RE: FOR IMMEDIATE ACTION

And so
1. Why do you feel the military does not need more land?
2. More training equals better military.
3. When it is open there will be some really neat rocks to collect
(ah..study) that have been blown up.
They have plenty of land, they just won't share it with other branches. A small corridor between 29 Palms/Fort Irwin/China Lake would open up far more acreage for training.
They don't want to use the land East of of 29 Palms that would not affect recreation. Its a $$$ thing, BLM land is just a transfer of ownership (FREE), buying private land cost $$$
They say we could use the land when their not training, this is a "LIVE FIRE" area, NO WAY are they going to let anyone in there after they use it (unexploded munitions).
The military in general is cutting back, if they are "shrinking" the military, why do they need to expand the land to train. From what I have read, the Marines need training in "Urban Warfare", blowing up rocks and Turtles is NOT my idea of Urban training.
I could go on and on and on, but thats the main points.
You people who do not live in So Cal have NO IDEA.
I live VERY close to March AFRB and have many friends who are in the Air Force or who work with the military, I fully support them 150%
We have lost two other AF bases in the general area and March has been converted to a Reserve Base, color that MILLIONS of lost dollars and jobs

RE: BLM fire restrictions read if you are going to the desert

They sure killed a lot of trees to get that message out.
YEP, I know
But its considered a contract, you signed it, and you know the rules.
Sad it has come to that, but it tries to cover the "it's not my fault" crowd.

RE: BLM fire restrictions read if you are going to the desert

I'm always confused by permits where you fill out a form and then give it to yourself. Same with the permits around Randsburg. There was a folding table with hippies who had us fill out a form and put it in our pockets. :h
Its only to make sure you know the rules and can't say you were not aware of them. Same with the Permit in Randsburg, stay on marked trails.

RE: Water system / holding tank maintenance

Might be overkill but since I also fill on the road at some campground I still sanitize once a year with the host/bleach method. I don't sanitize in between trips, however I have a few times after I filled at campgrounds that I didn't totally trust the water supply.
If I fill on the road somewhere, I dump the tanks when I get home and re-fill with known quality water and figure the Chlorine will take care of things ??
