Hey guys, we have a 6 month old rescue pup lab x staffy x jack russel. She’s a tiny wee thing we got at about 8 weeks after she was dumped. I want to make the most of her as a hunting buddy. She’s come a long way behaviour wise and I have been taking her out during the week while it’s quiet. Just for bush walks really. She has a wicked nose on her, fearless with the gun and really loves the bush and picking up tracks and is a brave kid. Last time we were out she almost got 2 pheasants, she was just a little unsure what to do and let them go. I just stood there haha.
Silly question but Next time I go out should I encourage her to get on them? Our older dog does possums and hares, my husband trained him and took him out when he was trapping and shooting. I don’t want a pig dog but it would be cool to have her catching things and teaching her myself. I see a lot of potential in her and think she would be wasted as a family dog even though she’s actually our 4 year old sons dog haha.
