Tara Fetching a Honker... - 03/04/19 12:48 AM
Well she has not fetch one yet, but she is in training.
She has completed her second hunting season, fetching about 100 ducks each season, but only 1 goose in that hunt, her first hunt 2018, I drop a big fat Canada and she would not pick it up, just overwhelmed her that big a bird. Took it home, tried to get her to fetch it, too much still. So I froze it, planned to teach her to fetch it in the off season but never worked on that, so her second season never shot a goose so good thing lol. So we worked on this today. The goose weighs 9 lbs 2oz in the freezer. Bought goose dokken, it weighs I think 4.5 lbs. She fetched that fine, so started adding weight in like 1.5 lb increments got it to over 8 lbs today. We almost there...
Funny she has never gone in circles like that before, all that weight had her spinning a guess lol.
