could be my solution to water in this dry country- had to try it out on Shadow- filled the two water containers- slipped it over his head, adjusted it a bit- not o bad- about 3 min- had to take a couple pictures

ok- lets let you out with the other 2- opened the gate- Shadow soon forgot and headed out- whistle and they're coming in- lets see if I can get him in the frame running

The dog will definitely need extra water from hauling it around. Myself, I carry 1.5 liters of water and a makeshift bowl for the dog in my game bag.
 
out for a bit- think he was running for 10 min- not to bad a test- sure seems to be streamlined and stay in place

time for last picture- quite pleased

Brittchaser- I just wanted to try one out- actually- it's quite light- two .51 litter water bottles- we'll see how Shadow goes with it on on a couple hour hunt- 4 Britt's I have to carry quite a bit of water- if I want to hunt a couple hours- who knows- this was just a try

I have to carry a lot of water in early Prairie Chicken season. Its hot and dry so you have to bring your own water.

I really like my WingWorks vest. It is pricey but makes carrying water much less of an issure with all the weight on your hips rather than your shoulders.
 
well- I was sort of joking on a post about if I could only get mine to carry their own water- then OkieGunner showed me a picture- heck- just had to give it a try- sort of chuckling you know- think Shadow thought I was nuts- something about- he didn't care to jump off the bench-

but he likes standing tall- so after a couple "up here" he jumped back up
 
Now, if you can train him to suck on the hose all by himself, then you have really done something! :cheers:

Shadow,

It’s Great to see you give it a try. Like Setter Nut, I also do a bunch of early season Grouse hunting. Carrying water for 4-6 dogs can be a struggle. I think that lash-up will do the trick and lighten your load at the same time. :coolpics:

Did you order from the website I provided?

the bottles don't have hoses-

OKIEGunner- went to your suggested sight- looked at it- was going to order- but since I needed a couple things from Gun Dog Supply I ordered from them- drop shipped from the manufacturer

we've got a bit of left over snow in places- so I haven't hunted Shadow with it on yet- sure will though- and I'll post him on point-

I like it- pretty slick- thanks for giving me the heads up
 
Keep us posted, I'm sure that it will do the trick.........
 
2 hours into the hunt- he was covering ground like the other 2- didn't seem to slow him down at all- got another couple pictures as they were out there and spread out aways backing- took one then moved in closer for one, then closeup of Shadow- he'd been like this for awhile-

flushed a hen- called them all in- gave Shadow 1st drink since he was carrying- I like it- it never moved on him at all
