Now that the season is over, how many guys are still happy with their Pointing Type dogs being; "Steady" to both wing and shot. Then does the retrieve on command? Honestly how many birds did your dog lose this season?
As you can tell, I am of the school that wants my dog on that downed bird as quickly as possible. So I allow my dog to leave on the shot, without command. I wish I could say my dog didn't lose a bird, only shooting just (1) one bird for it to retrieve all season is not a true test. Yes, he got that one fine it was a dead.
Which way do you prefer your dog steady or "go get"um"....................Bob
