Breed survey

[swede sd]

Just wondering, what breed of dog do you guys run and what kind of birds do you hunt, and what kind of cover do you hunt in?

This will be my first year with my own dog, but I have a German Shorthair. We will hunt mostly pheasants.

I run 2 German shorthairs. I'm also looking into German wirehairs. I hunt alot of pheasant and a little of each, grouse, woodcock, duck and goose. The type of cover I hunt in can vary from corn fields to woods to ponds.

Shorthairs, Labs,English Setters, English Pointers. we/I... Like Quail hunting the best, but do just about anything that moves.
we hunt river bottoms most of the time.

I have three labs. They hunt for the most comfortable places to sleep, they hunt for any food dropped on the floor and they hunt for biscuits. Actually, our older one is used for duck hunting and sometimes for field hunting geese. She also has numerous obedience titles as well as a UKC hunt title. The other two have not been hunted, they are used for obedience showing. One has a conformation title and obedience titles and the other just obedience titles.
