Not only that..but shoot any sort of critter for your dog..especially one that they interacted with and they'll see it as a good thing to take the gun to it the next time they come across whatever it is.

I snake-proofed Kansas at about 5/6 mos - he's a smart dog - it stuck.

I didn't kill the Porkys in front of her. I told her to leave it alone and let her hunt again. After she was well out of sight I shot two different Porky's. I've paid the vet bills twice with my Golden's. I don't like Porky's at all.

The very first day that I hunted Star in Pittsburg I found him face to face with a large Porky. I jacked up the juice on his e-collar and gave him a jolt. He let out a yip, backed off and I have never had a problem with them since. I know for a fact that last summer he an my buddies lab found one together, and the lab had quills and my dog did not.

I've come to the conclusion that Lews figure them out pretty darn quick.

How does your dog act?

How does shooting rabbits in his presence affect his bird hunting?

If there are no ill effects I would say you have one exceptional bird dog.

I can shoot hares while bird hunting my DD, it's either let him go with it or call him off when he starts one ....but it's not something I encourage in the setter,he's much softer than the Heiko and if by chance it became an issue it may be hard to correct
