Its official!! My first bird dog was whelped on 9Feb! I'm WAY stoked! My wife and I are officially in full preparation mode! I had a couple questions. I could probably cold have looked up this information on any general dog rearing advise forum, but I wanted to hear from you guys as like minded individuals who have been there and done that. so here goes:
1. I believe it necessary to provide the pooch access to fresh water at all times. However, this will be the first pup I've raised while simultaneously raising my own offspring. I have a very active 18 month old son who will be like stink on poo with an open water dish on the floor. Have any of you found a product or something that helped in that regard?
2. To you seasoned bird dog owners: if you could go back and raise your first pup knowing what you know now, whats something that sticks out in your mind as something you'd do differently?
3. When is the nominal time you've found to introduce your pup to birds. What kind of birds do you use first?
I look forward to your responses!
