Upland Bird Dog Training | Scent Drags 

Thank you!

It’s the opposite for me she is using me as a pillow😂

Nic H In the first year every couple days I spend a good hour with them. From then on they are pretty set you just help remind them the process!

Let me know what other topics you would like me to cover.

My wirehair is the same way... im just startin him also

if the dog has the instincts to hunt then yes. you could also work with it to increase its prey drive. GSP and labs usually have great prey drives for pheasant and upland. other breeds have no interest because its just not in their blood.

I just took my malinois out quail hunting and he has done pretty good job flushing them but he doesnt know the smell .high prey instinct any tips ? He loves going out there and i can control him pretty good as far as not going to far ahead . Next hunt is pheasant and idk i feel like he would be a great asset to the hunt juat dont kno w if this breed will do fine or not . Any tips would be great and great video!

and also duck and maybe rabbit

With the bird scents. I try to use the scents I will be hunting. But it is not necessary. Once the get going on scents, they tend to know it is still a bird. As far as the fox training. I am not sure, I have not trained a dog to tree an animal.

That's a lot of training, probably need to get a couple different things

Be really careful shooting a gun around him if he is scared of fireworks. Make sure you have a long leash on him in case he takes off. Also, feed him his favorite treats as the gun shoots, so that he is focused on that. As far as training, it is a complex answer. Start him on this video suggestions, introduce him to live birds in a cage (can be bought at Bass Pro)

WRY Outdoor Media ok I bought a pheasant wing today to give him to start to get used to the scent. I also got the dummy and scent stick as you suggested. I think he needs to get used to the scents. He loves to point at birds. Hell when we go to petsmart he goes right to the bird cage and points and stares. Sadly we don’t have a bass pro anywhere close to us. Best thing is fleet farm or gander mountain which is going to close. Any other suggestions? As to the gun I have been reading blank 22s to start out. Gonna see if playing ball or following a live scent might help him realize the gun sound is ok. I plan on having a very long lead rope with him so he can’t run. Sadly I have an uncle whom is a big hunter but doesn’t seem to be willing to help me. I wish I had the urge to hunt him when he was younger not now.

Hi James, I do not. The good news is I am starting a new playlist on the channel for Upland Dog Training and will be looking to release a new video each week. I just uploaded the first video in the series "The STAY command" and how to teach it. Please check it out and leave a comment on the video stating what you would like me to cover next.

Looking forward to it! What did you say to your pup when you checked him while trying to get him to lock on point? Whoa, as you checked him?

Thanks! Stay tuned for more videos.

Corrections

Was there a previoid comment im missing??

Basically when he first picks up scent. I stand on the leash and if he moves. The jerk on his collar is a negative reinforcement

In reference to the lead, as apposed to the beep (collar). I say use the lead because it simply stops him and makes him remember (hold point). The beep from the collar is a different ttpe of negative reinforcement I have trained into him. It is more a NO then a stop.

WRY Outdoor Media great thanks for the feedback

No

No one really asked for feedback like that. Just leave it at good video.

Frank Cambra your a nut

Nice shirt slick...

if you do not like hunting or dog training why are you watching this?

That's the dogs purpose in life.

You’re a fuckin idiot Olivia. Not all of us want a shit head dog that just eats, shits and sleeps and has no discipline.
