[QUOTE="nicholasjohn, post: 1654053, member: 109113"] My uncle used to train his Brittany with pigeons. One of his buddies would live-trap them all week long on the roof of the factory where he worked, and they would go out on the weekends and train the pups with them. It worked great, and the dog I grew up hunting with, named Ginger, was hell-on-wheels with ringnecks & ruffed grouse. This was in western PA, back in the early 70's - when they had a good breeding population of wild pheasants. The state pretty much blew that up with farm-raised birds, and now that's all they have there. The ruffed grouse aren't doing too well, either, or so I hear. If I still lived there, I would probably being running beagles, since they do still have a ton of bunnies. Last I heard, your part of Idaho still has good bird hunting. You're very fortunate, and also lucky to have a very nice dog to hunt them with. Have fun !!! [/QUOTE]
