Training device for yard work

Last weekend while visiting a pointer kennel they had a couple of these little metal baskets with a little step on them, they would keep a pigeon contained until you wanted it to flush then you would simply step on it to let the bird flush. I got all caught up talking and forgot to ask him about where to find them, anyone use them and no where to find?

Made my own with 1/2" hardware cloth.

Your either talking about a kick cage or a launcher. Very easy to find and readily available at any dog supply store.

It wasn't a launcher and not sure kick cage either it reminded me of the trash can with the lever you step on and the top flips up. I have an email into the guy and if/when he replies I will post
