Boogie did an amazing job, finding all of the doves we shot except for one. In total, we ended up getting 15 doves between the two of us. It was a perfect day out yesterday and an awesome hunt. Definitely was a lot of fun.
Boogie also wanted to attack a group of four horses that we saw that were a ways away from where we were hunting. She started to sprint and ran up to them but thankfully I had a shock collar on Boogie and gave her a small shock and she came running back. I guess Boogie was planning on jumping the barbed-wire fence and taking on all four horses. Don't know how that would have turned out.
When my Mom first got Boogie, she had a tendency to attack all other dogs. Eventually, with some training, she was weened of this tendency but obviously she still has a bit of that attack instinct in her. She's always been great with people though.
The best story of the day though, happened when we were taking pictures. I was taking a picture of Kevin and told him to have Boogie hold a dove in her mouth for the picture... well, he handed her one just like I said and then as I took a few pics Boogie started to chomp down on it and start eating the dove whole! You can actually see her
By the time we realized this, there was only a few wing feathers sticking out of the side of her mouth and she ended up eating the whole thing, lol. I'm sure she'll be fine, as the dove she ate was a really, really small one and she's ate other things (like a whole rabbit before) and been fine. Overall, it was a great hunt and by far the most doves Kevin and I have ever gotten in one day. We only went out for about 3 hours as well. We both shot excellent and only missed one or two doves each.
