Maybe I've been hunting over bad pointers?? I'm still mulling a Toller.
To date, my dog has not lost a bird that was shot over him, that is around 150 birds over two years. We also didn't lose a single bird shot over any of densa44s dogs. As for the toller, I still recommend talking to wwbirds about his experiences training them. I have only had experience with one toller on pheasants, and it was not favorable.
