Gun Dog Forum

Its funny you talk about trust your dog. I have a V and use her for bird hunting and tracking. Two years ago I shot a deer that ran off and I lost the blood trail, so I but her to work. I saw the deer ran off straight away and make a hard left, after about 60 yards I lost sight of the deer. I gave t...

I've gotten several response's about using the ecollar too much but I don't thinks its really the case. For example i used it twice over a 2-2 1/2 hr hunt, which both times it was because she chased a flushed bird. And she's not really sensitive to commands or the collar.
