About this episode
Ben Fretz from North Country Sporting Dogs joins the show to discuss preseason tune-ups for our bird dogs. We talk about getting yourself and your bird dog into hunting shape and fine-tuning your bird dogs with bird work for puppies and veteran dogs. We explain how to set a positive scenario for puppies to succeed in the field, training dogs on wild birds vs pen raised birds, thick habitat vs open fields, tips to make sure pigeons fly, when to launch pigeons, roading dogs & running on treadmills, proper nutrition and supplements, building prey drive, overcoming a gun shy dog, and most importantly having fun with your dog in the field... @northcountrysportingdogs Presented by: Walton’s (waltons.com/) OnX Maps (onxmaps.com/) Aluma Trailers (alumaklm.com) GAIM Hunting & Shooting Simulator ( https://alnk.to/74wKReb ) Compeer Home (compeerhome.com) Federal Premium Ammunition ( federalpremium.com/ ) Hunt North Dakota ( helloND.com/ ) Lucky Duck Premium Decoys ( luckyduck.com/ ) & Samaritan Tire ( samaritantire.com/ )
