My stupid dogs can't find anything except gross dead stuff to roll in or skunks to try and play with. Retards, but we love 'em.

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

Cool beans.

My mother just bought a new lab puppy, We have her in training all ready to shed hunt. The lab is retrieving them great and I will take here out in about a month for her first shed huntwhen shes big enough to go with me. Mom takes 2 sheds I gave her with the pup everywhere, they are her favorite toy to fetch.

Shed Thats a great idea with the pup. My next pup will go thru some training also with some sheds. have you found any yet??

RE: My dog finds a shed---pics
 

I haven't found any fresh ones this year, 5 old. The snow in the areas I shed hunt is deeper than normal. I will take the puppy out in about a month, I think she will be big enough to get around well by then...

I will pack a shed with me in those first trips to make sure she finds a bone and retrieves it. I look forward to her training. She's already glued to the sheds we are letting her work with at home. She's 7 or 8 weeks old now.
