Dogs that take feather

[steveS.Yorks 161]

Either thats the best pheasant dog in the UK or the pheasants round your way are the stupidest pheasants in the UK?

 

Good how he doesnt even pull a feather out of place on them as well,look at the 3 on Birds post every one damaged? wish i had a good dog like yours.

 

The dog did really well find them. Yes there was feathers pulled out, not many mind you.

 

I've looked at Birds post/photos, you'll be surprised how a lurchers mouth can be very soft.

 

 

 

 

Not much surprises me anymore after 40 years of hunting with dogs,only the people that do it ussually

Good job Sprock. He's turned into a fabulous looking dog too.

My lil whippet has aquired the knack for wood pigeon on the local fields and partridge......

Only problem with a dog that takes feather is when you've been given permission or work on a shoot and the sod won't leave them alone. There's about 15,000 game birds to avoid round here

Unfortunately, my eldest first encountered a pheasant shortly after being hit by a van as a pup so the "explosion" scared the living daylights out of him. As a result he's never been interested in pheasant though he now points them avidly. However, both he and my youngest bitch have taken several wood pigeon, helped along by the fact that her first two had been winged (no idea who by though) which boosted her confidence for future catches.

My pup seems to have a thing for pheasants, but i'm having difficulty explaining that the birds on some permissions are fair game and the birds on some of the others very much not. He usually catches them up under or against hedges. Because i pretty much live on a shoot he gets a crack at some pretty much every day.

My older bitch went through a phase when she was really into them, plenty of pheasants, a couple of magpies and a few crows. Thought she had a barn owl once, i would have been devastated! Turned out to be a very pale hen bird. It can be a bit of a nuisance when you dont want them to do it but makes a nice change when your in the right place. I keep her well in check on any keepered land as i dont feel you should be messing with another mans livelihood but on unkeepered ground they are fair game!

I,v always enjoyed the odd pheasant , but after seeing the shooters point of view on these type of threads , I think I,ll give them a miss , I can do without the odd bird and I don,t want to mess with other peoples sport .
