Daughter is 1.5 years old and is a ball of fire and Molly (Dog) is 7 months old. She did awsome with two great points. First on was by the pond. The second one was in the grass. She did awsome on the second one. Held the point for a long time allowing Jonesy to walk out and around to the front of he...

Re: Dog not listening to the Wife

Nope, My wife hunts right beside me so I told her she needs to learn how to handle the dog same as me. For some reason the dog listens to me and not my wife even though she is with her more then I am. Maybe its a female thing.

Get a Infrared Trail camera that way you dont have to waste battery life to tape nothing. If she comes back and goes to your vehicle it will take pictures or video for you. Then you take the memory card out and put it on your computer. She would never know its there.
