It might affect the quail.
The more times the pen raised birds are exposed
To the dog the less likely they will fly from the dog
In a training situation.

I like the ribeye cut

I have used my gsp to blood trail!

I have not had a problem; this dog was FINISHED
Before he trailed his first deer.

It's pretty cool because he locks up on a deer just
Like a bird.

Drop the feed bowl (aluminum bowl on concrete)on the floor before you feed. Do it consistently for a month
And moniter the reactions.

Imo
The first year is all about just hunting and playing, get the dog around as many birds as possiblle.

Let him get BOLD by giving him time to be a dog.

Well I turn them looses and let them have free time, no training, no commands
Just letting the dog be a dog.

Db

I believe in giving my bird dogs a lot of free time.

I give them 1-2 hours a day.

What about you?

Field trials are different then fun trials, nastra, bird dog challenge etc. It's crazy but yes, most people get excited to hunt behind a pointing dog and are in awe when it points, they or the dog flush the bird, they shoot the bird and the dog brings it back. There is a difference between a traine...

It didn't cost me anywhere near $2000 to train my dog. Probably not even half that. Didn't mention how well your dog is trained either 15 bucks for a good 12' horse lead 25 bucks for a barrell 50 bucks for a manuel launcher 5 bucks for a whistle 4 bucks for a box of shells 300 bucks for birds 200 b...

All of my bird dogs eat horse poop, but they do
Not eat dog poop for some reason.

I have never had a problem and feel they
Are bennifiting from it.

Do it yourself if you have the time and the patience.

You will learn as you go and you will appreciate
Your dog 100 times more.

I'm curious to know if your satisfied with the training your
Dog received. If everything seems on the up and up with the training then
Take the stud fee and let them register . If you feel you got the
Shaft with the training then ask for a refund and the stud fee.

My avatar dog"Boy" loves to pee on clients when
They get to close to him while he is on point.
That's the only movement he will make while pointing, just slightly lifts his
Leg in ninja stealth mode and let's it go. I warn
My clients before every hunt, but he always gets one of them.

If it's public ground I would go hunting & shoot some birds!

I have two finished dogs that "switch" naturally.
