Seriously considering adopting some dog from a shelter that looks like it came from a hunting breed just so I can take it with me and hope it performs as well as the dogs I was with today.

my border collie always did fine on the birds.  your dog can figure it out.

Lady is extremely gun shy though, just holding a gun sends her cowering....I've taken her out in the field shooting a couple of time and she runs back to the car and curls up in a ball cowering.

Any tips on breaking her of this in the next month? Should I just walk around the house with a shotgun for the next month so she gets used to it?

You should be always protecting your home, you never know when a liberal will decide it's your turn for a home invasion

Put foam ear pugs on her when shooting.  This may help with the fear.  Also, get some chickens and shoot one of them at a bird hunting distance.  Make sure Lady has ear protection and is next to you when you shoot the chicken.  Then give her a treat and take her with you to get the chicken.  Make sure she gets to smell the bird and give it to her went you get back to the house.  This will give her a positive experience.  Be sure to repeat this ordeal for about a week or until she starts to enjoy it.  Dogs love rewards and will get use to the loudness of the gun knowing what comes from it.  Remember this process takes time; so have patience.
Hot time in Kat town tonight.

oh, yeah, that will be tough.  katdaddy is right that you can probably turn it around and his method would probably work, but i dunno if it's worth the effort.

Only if you have a thing for eating Brains, spinal columns and or spinal fluid soup with some fried bone marrow but if not then your ok.  :Lurk: also deadly to bovine ruminants not predatory meat eating entities. As insinuated in the twitter headline.

sotacat, I'd recommend that you not eat diseased animals. However, the deer population appears to be safe in Minnesota so you shouldn't worry.

Thanks for the concern Buck I live in Kansas. Either you run from Sasquatch, or you run with Sasquatch. I choose the latter. Jerky especially venison jerky is good. I agree if I saw a droopy eared ruminant walking around like a good ge er on a late agiville cruise I would leave it contact the Kwdp and have it dispatched for coyote bait. Don’t let em scare ya though.

Pretty difficult decision on who to believe between Katdaddy and 'sotacat. I think we might need a little more debate before I make up my mind

I’m sorry for your friend Daddy

Humans can’t get mad cow disease, since it can only occur, by definition, in cattle. They can, however, develop a related infection—called variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD)—by eating contaminated meat. The most well-known outbreak of vCJD occurred in the United Kingdom in the 1980s and 1990s.

The cwd variety in deer has not been documented to be transferred via meat that’s why they advise to not be exposed to the spinal fluid, spinal column and or any brain and bone marrow. Not disagreeing with anyone here it’s not a joke but it’s not a valid reason to not enjoy the outdoors and partake in deer hunting if that’s your thing if not that s cool too!   :thumbs:

1 week update on breaking lady of her gun shyness. Been holding the shotgun around the house and putting it next to her bed and food bowl to get her used to it, she's will eventually come get a treat out of my hand when I'm holding it.

Might of had a breakthru tonight. Usually when I'm going to take her for a walk I'll say "Do you want to go for a walk?" and she will go nuts and get excited. I did that tonight while holding the shotgun (in my house) and she still went nuts and ignored that I was holding it.

Will make sure I'm holding it every time I ask her to go for a walk from here on out.

T - 26 Days until we find out how well the training has worked.

Lots of positive reinforcement BenJi if you have a pond you can also if she likes the water play fetch. While she is swimming fire the gun as well a lot of times they will not focus on that while swimming and doing what they love fetching!

I dont have an area around where I live that I can go take her and blast off some boom booms in a field. I was thinking about maybe taking her to a gun range and sitting outside with her for a bit to get her used to the sounds, will make sure I have plenty of treats for her.
