Looks like he is doing pretty ok, so, good job!
One of my buddy's hunting partners would leash his retriever the first year he took her out so she couldn't jump the shot (he wouldn't be hunting when she was on the leash, or at least one person wouldn't be, so they could hold her leash). She got it pretty quickly and her second season does fine. Keep working at it and he will keep getting better.
I just turned it on . I was looking bird dogs in the butt this morning.

She got it pretty quickly and her second season does fine. Keep working at it and he will keep getting better. I have just been using the shock collar on him for it. He knows when were working at home not to go until I send him, so I just hit him with it as soon as his butt comes off the ground and he gets the idea. All it has taken any time he's jumped is once then the rest of the morning he is fine. Another thing I'm excited about is that he doesn't squirm, whine, or bark when birds are in the air or on the water. Yesterday we had a pair of mallards 30 yds out on the water, he was a little confused why they weren't dead but he didn't budge or make a noise.

The little guy ain't so little anymore. He's done grown up. Sounds like he's doing great Mike, congrats!

Dogs are one of my favorite things about duck hunting. They ARE my favorite thing about duck hunting. And goose hunting. Oh, and quail, pheasant, and dove hunting too. Nowadays, I enjoy observing the dog work more than shooting my limit, to be honest.

Dang...the little guy has turned into a full load. @ "He carries it well, must run in the family" Unfortunately, I can relate.
