Question by liquidburn34: How do I start training my hunting dog?

Best answer:

Answer by kaboom
We have catahoulas. when we scent train, we start with a tiny bit of a fragrant treat that they really like (you have to always use the same treat). we let them get the scent of it, then place it a few feet in front of them. make them stay, and then tell them to go get it. we move it a little farther and a little farther

when they sit, stay, get the treat reguarly, we start hiding it (ie, behind a chair, right under the foot of the bed) start them close to it, and if they find it, try hiding it farther away. then start hiding two things at the same time, in close locations, then not so close to eachother. eventually they will be finding things in flowerpots in the other room, or under the bathroom rug.

when they get it down, we start putting the scent with the treat. and over time, the treats get smaller and the scent gets stronger, until you are using just scented decoys. the rewared then goes from getting to eat a treat, to praise as they find the scent/decoy.

with a pup, keep the training sessions short and build up (3 min to start, up it to 5 min and so on). if they get bored it is detrimental to the training.

Q&A: Morally what is the difference between hunting and dog fighting?

Question by Other: Morally what is the difference between hunting and dog fighting?
Obviously ,it isn’t necesary to hunt in order to obtain food, so the majority of people indulge out of sport and thrill. Ultimately the animal dies, albeit probably quicker and more humanely than a dog fight.
In response to 72-D100s response. You showed your ignorance by opening your mouth. I’m not opposed to hunting. Also the need for hunting as as a conservational approach is only because of human inteference in the first place. I eat meat. I’ve hunted before. I was asking a philosophical question, maybe that’s too much for you. Cornfields on that scale are not natural. Deer only thrive and are over populated because in most areas they have no natural predators. Bears, Mountain Lions, Wolves, etc these are all not as populated as they were even a hundred years ago because of human interference, sport hunting, ignorance, farmers, development, habitat destruction, and too top that off during the early part of the 20th century deer were endangered due to over hunting

Pheasant hunting without dog. Can you help with any tips?

Question by Joel S: Pheasant hunting without dog. Can you help with any tips?
I just started my first season hunting pheasant with one partner. We dont have have a dog, so we have been trying on foot. I was wondering if its even worth it and how we improve our hunt, what type of areas do pheasant usually hide in.

Best answer:

Answer by brddg1974
One of the things I’ve learned about hunting pheasant without a dog: as you are walking through the cover, stop and wait for a couple min every 20 to 30 yards. Birds that hold very tight will become nervous and often times will flush when they cannot tell where you are. Be very aware of where you partner(s) is/are as the birds will often flush behind you when you do this.

** See How I Did It * A Must Read **

To be able to train your dog properly, you have to understand how his brain works. Take no notice of most of the rubbish you read in modern books, and please do not watch the TV shows on at present. They may work for some pet dogs (I doubt it though). But they will never work for highly intelligent Gun Dogs..

Do You Want The Best Gun Dog On The Shoot?



Charlie Went From Absolute Nightmare to The Best Gun Dog You Could Imagine
Within 6 months Charlie was the best dog on the shoot. In fact he was the best dog most of my shooting collages have seen. You may be surprised that 'Charlie' was not from the best stock. He came from a rescue centre where he was found wandering the streets of Cambridge
