BaconBoy Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 recently got my sgc and was wondering if my 9year old lab is too old to be properly gun trained(if this is the correct term) he is a very fit and healthy dog and very obediant. he does retrieve(a thrown dummy)to hand he will retrieve from water he will stop and sit on the whistle he will do a blind retrieve(when he doesn't see where the dummy was thrown/landed) was just wondering wether it is worth taking him with me pigeon shooting? sorry if the terms i have used are incorrect thanks for any advice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lloyd90 Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 If he will retrieve to you and follow your commands I don't see why not Alot of the stuff required is obedience. You might wan't to try out with a few dead pigeons first as a pigeon isn't much like a dummy but labs are very good dogs and you shouldn't have much trouble. Even though your dog is 9 pigeon shooting in't exactly hard. Sounds like he would be great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
