Is this even possible? I can't imagine a flushing dog even noticing a point let alone honoring it. When mine are that close to a bird there is no slowing them down.

From a training stand point, hesitation is the last thing you want on a flusher or the bird will be out of range. I can't imagine another dog busting a point would be good for a young pointer either.

I actually considered a pointer this type but didn't figure they could hunt with Labs. Have you tried this before and how did it work?
