Thread: Craigmore Pheasants

@mikee I’d get in touch with the keeper they might just be looking for picker uppers. You don’t shoot but your dog will get a dam good work out and gain a load of experience at the same time.
Downside will be when you take him out and come back with only one or two you have to live with his looks of disappointment

I run a pointer and she does retrieve but I its not something I have put extra work into. If I still lived closer I would be happy to help beating, picking up etc. For me its not really about the actual shooting more about the dog working.

It’s why I run a pack of cockers, you get the fringe benefit of dogging in with your pointing breed between shoot days.
