So I took my beagle out for the first time yesterday to see how she dose in the field. I was quite surprised that with zero formal training she was quite able to track and flush two pheasants and a rabbit. The disappointment came after the shots were fired, and she ran a mile back to the...

Decided I want to try pheasant hunting. Anyone planning to go the release / massacre this week and want to meet up / teach a newb?
