This would be Mannys third season. I'm completely overloaded at work, weekend family plans have interfeered, weather, ect. Only actually hunted one time this season. So my question is this, do you really need to kill a bird for the dog to have a blast. My dog hunts at least 5 days a week and he seems to love it. I live in the city of Sacramento. The American River runs right threw the metropolitain area, a parkway was created way back when, and its pretty much wild. I live 2-3 miles from the parkway. GSP get to hunt rabbits, both jack and cottontail, deer, quail, coyotes, turkeys, and he'll even hit the water for beaver or otters. Funny thing about this dog, doesn't really love the water, much rather be on land. Doesn't give Ducks a second look, same with doves. But a beaver or otter is spotted swimming, game on, he turns into an olympic swimmer. Anyways since last season, only 1 bird to hand, but he doesn't seem to mind. He hunts with tremendous enthusiasm, and doesn't seem to get frusterated. If he gives chase to a rabbit or deer, 1 loud no and he turns off, sometimes does it on his own. So, will this suffice for the dog?
