How do you guys handle your aging bird dogs? My pointer is 15 and just lays around, that is untill I put the collar on him, his body and his tail gets all excited. I dont hunt him, but I do take him out to the field. After the hunt is done (with much younger dogs) I let him out and he trys his best to run (walks fast) but i swear pride and happiness just swells out of him. Is it just me or do others see this with their old dogs?
