Meet Leo
« on: April 08, 2018, 10:49:03 AM »
What a fun dog to work with, Leo has been with us for the past 60 days for introduction to birds, gunfire and learning to retrieve.  Here he is doing a triple with just the first bird being a marked flyer.  Two items to point out he is a hunting dog not a test or trial dog and if you notice he is working without an E Collar.  I really like how far this youngster has come in a short period of time.  ENJOY!!

Very nice. But there is a time and place for an e-collar
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

Skyval.  I agree with you and yes he has had one on.  As a trainer though, if you want to impress me show me what your dog can do with out a collar on.  When we send a dog home I want to show that the dog has been trained not conditioned to a collar.  One thing I can't stand is you see someone post a great picture of a dog on point or something else spectacular and there is electronics hanging off its neck or worse yet their groin.  That picture means nothing to me. When I hunt and guide my Pointers and Short Hairs they are collared.  When I hunt my Springers or Poodle they are not because of the cover I hunt them in.  And no I do not chase them or run after them they must listen and stay in gun range.
