Default RE: Where can i buy birds for dog training?

Like shorthair said clip there wings so they can't fly and dizzy them up by putting there head under there wing and swinging your arms in a circular motion while holding the bird with it's head tucked then you can place it in the grass or weeds and it should stay put then you can work you dog thru the field and up to where the bird or birds are and do your training up to the flush and yes by all means as the dog comes along on it's training take a bird or two and don't clip there wings and blast a few. plus the clipped wing birds feathers will grow back out
