He has lots of live ducks for training too. Hard to train a duck dog when you don't have any ducks. :) Beware of trainers who only use plastic bumpers.  :chuckle:

He does have a lot of pigeons and ducks. When I had my pup up for a refresher a few months ago, we worked with live ducks that I had to shoot. Glad I didn't miss.  :chuckle:

don't worry, they save getting pizzed off for missing birds for when I show up and shoot for them.

I wouldn't rely on email with them. I am family and still just call them. Call and talk to Charlotte and she can either have Bucko call you or if he is close, he can come to the phone.
