Default Miss Pickle's Shed Hunting!!!

Took Miss Pickles out to my bowhunting haunts looking for sheds...still a fair amount of snow in bush...found a couple lil-uns nothing worth posting...will be better when snow is completely gone!

But Miss Pickles...just turned 4 months is in spring traing also...she loves looking for antlers...when a dog is working it is less spazzed out and less likly to run off far...

So she is being pack trained...she only had several bottles of water, folding dish and some her food and snacks in pack but as she gets bigger so does the pack...

Standard protocol today is a dog can pack 1/3 of its weight...back in the day ...no one told the natives or their dogs that and I seen them carrying their own weight or better with no complaints...

Buts its fun ...she can carry her own water and food...and refreshments for me also on a day trip...

Sorry for all the pics...im kinna "twiterpated"
lol

BTW You better keep that dog locked up. I was showing my wife pics of Miss Pickles and she thinks your dog is gorgeous. I wouldn't want to become party to a dog-napping. lol
