My golden found a shed a few years ago, but unfortunately, he's far too fat to walk anywhere now.

The one he did find was really impressive - it had broken the antler off, leaving about 1-2" of base, which is what he found - the shed base. He just kinda walked up and spit this wad of bone on the ground, and I was a little bit surprised that the big fella was able to find it. He's one of those dogs that's super smart, but really acts kinda stupid. Sandbagger.

If you get a dog that's smart enough to train with rewards, and use an old antler to train him - you could have a shedhunting wingman (dog)up and running in a few days.

Like Hia said - you gotta watch, b/c they're prone to chewing
