    I know of another case where a chap was shot (he lived - minus half his shoulder from a 270) In Pureora again :-(
    He was huddled into a Toe Toe bush on edge of clearing on evening with his dog - shot from 200m - he never knew what hit hime - woke up in Hamilton Hospital later

    I was going to make this comment to @R93
    The GSP breed are the worst - but any 4 legged animal tucked beside you is added danger
    I used to put a knitted jersey on my GSP in blue - but it did not stay that blue for long

    Yes - your dog would possible growl at the approach of another hunter - but its not you that we are talking about here - its another hunter shooting at you or your dog
