If pigeons can be toxic to humans do you need to do anything with them before using them for training with your dog.
what I meant was their dropping can be harmful to humans and when they are in their roost covered in dropping would that be harmful to your dog when used for training. These will be caught birds not pen raised.
different opinions from different websites about the hazard
if there going to be trained to home they have to be acquired young(pigeons) anyway
im going to start a coop this spring
just me being overly cautious, maybe it's a phobia
some racing pigeons cost as much as some racing horses
seems like a lot of people start keeping pigeons for dog training and hawking, next thing you know they're hooked on pigeon racing/homing
