Doug I don't use a whistle but I have been known to yell at my dogs. All in all I don't think a fellow blowing his whistle at his dogs spoils the outback serenity any more than an unmuffled airplane engine and its associated prop noise.
My dogs haven't hunted pheasant enough to learn that we don't shoot hens. They are so smart they can open the U-latch on the chain link fenced kennel and push the latch handle down on the wooden fence gate and beat me back to the truck if I forget to put a bolt in those latches.
JRB it would be a waste to put one of those nice pads on this gun, kind of like buying sexy lingerie for Roseanne Barr.
Ted when my one of my dogs brings back a wounded pheasant after a long hard chase or after a thorough search of dense cover you couldn't buy that dog for $20,000. That is a thrill. (Especially if my companion made the bad shot)
Steve are you on the road yet? Life has interfered and I don't know if I am going to get to go to Montana this Fall.
the more I learn about my fellow man the more I like dogs...
Speaking for your fellow men the more we learn about you the more we like dogs.
