The Hunt
Each outing the handler needs to assess & acknowledge what they walking into, direct tactical adjustments/patterns, maintain proper field obedience and allow bird dogs to hunt with independence and self-control.
After months of training what did we learn?
- Remain consistent and properly praise your dog.
- Limit your verbal commands.
- Help teach, connect and keep dogs out of danger.
- Hydration and nutrition during and after a hunt – Handler and Dog.
- Every dog is different and can they work together successfully.
- Don’t allow your dog to break/move until you command it.
- Equipment functioning, charged and you have everything (water, etc). Check before casting your dog from the truck.
- Mark your Truck and track your dog(s).
- If you are in an unknown Town (BFE) – where is the nearest vet and are they 7×24? Just check before your trip.
