Should I bother?
I live in NE Kentucky. I am interested in getting a bird dog pup to train. The problem is, there isn't an abundance of birds in the area. I have killed 2 quail and 3 grouse in 3 trips bird hunting this year. I really want to get a bird dog to train, but I am worried there aren't enough birds to properly train the dog. Any suggestions? Hey!, I still have some good beagles either way.
Also, what dog would you recommend for quail, grouse, and dove? I have looked into Brittanys, Pointers, GSP, GWP, and English Setters. I like the looks of the GWP the best, but looks can be deceiving.
