Re: Dropping bird
Ips, you have done an amazing job with Eze for someone training their first dog. She may not be perfect but none of them are. I have trained many dogs, each a bit better than the last but with all of them I eventually get to a level of contentment with their behaviour and no longer worry about small faults. I don't get 25 birds with a box of shells so I figure the dog is allowed a few mistakes as well.
I'm suspicious of people who don't like dogs, but I trust a dog when it doesn't like a person. - Bill Murray
