Title: Back from the revere
Post by: GermanShorthair on November 13, 2008, 03:13:08 PM: hey guys back from the revere, and what a day :bash: it started with me falling the dirt early with my dog on point and the rooster flushes and never to be seen again, then i couldn't hit a darn quail, i was shooting so bad i haven't had one of those days in a long time, well any way i though i found a honey hole and all i got was a porcupine that my dog that it would be OK to pick up and boy did he learn, i spent the rest of the day pulling quills and he is doing fine now, i hope he learned his lesson not to mess with them again. just curious, how do you teach your dogs to leave them alone to prevent this sorta problems.

So that was your gray 4 door 4x4 parked there with the Colville license decoration. Mine was the tan Toyota with the tan canopy.

My pup at the moment points them. I just get him going in a different direction and have someone else take care of the ball of needles. If my pup decides in the future he wants to go after them, it will be a session of shock therapy. Which has worked on his early season Sheep and Deer Chasing, he now justs looks from a distance thinking "better not get to close those things can shoot lightning"
