Thanks Mistermom

[BDR]

I had a great time today. Thanks for the invite to your folks place. The birds are doing very well around there.

Daisy said she enjoyed deer hunting too! (My dopey dog jumped a deer and was gone before I knew it. Lost her for two hours.)

You are very welcome BDR! We will have to try for a couple more adventures before the season ends. And it was sure nice to watch Charly (BDR's shorthair) work. Daisy is doing ok but she's young. I can only hope she is doing as well when she is 6.

3 guys, 3 birds, and lots of birds seen. Not a bad day at all!

Mom, maybe it's time to get a shock collar for your pooch. Dogs chasing deer isn't appreciated by deer hunters. Bad things have happened to dogs doing this.

[mistermom]

She has a shock collar. She was out of range by the time I figured out she was gone. It was very heavy cover and she was over by the other hunters. By the time I figured out she wasn't around it was too late to jolt her. And she had a bell on too. It only takes about 30 seconds.

BDR figured out she jumped a deer by the tracks. Nobody actually saw it.If somebody had shot her.... Too bad for Daisy and me. I am certainly gonna try to stop the behavior; but she is 14 months old and has a ways to go with a lot of things.

Mistermom, were you on KFAN last Sat. on Chris Hockey's racin show? I almost called in to see if it was you.

[mistermom]

Sorry! It wasn't me. I only listen to the outdoor shows on KFAN and occasionally the Vikes. I'm thinking about taking my dog to the track for an hour or so before we hunt to burn off some energy, however.
