To your 4 legged friends tomorrow when you go dove hunting.
Opening day of dove season is always very stressful to any dog.
Take a lot of COLD WATER and try to find a shaded area for the both of you.
You don't need to kill a limit to have a great day with your dog.

Thanks for the reminder |

Being someone that now trains retrievers for a living, I always keep a gallon of alcohol in the truck in case a dog starts to heat stroke. Pour it on their chest area.
I always try to get my land work done early while it's cool out, switch to water during the heat of the day. Surface water can get VERY warm and can overheat a dog as well.

Budd, do you carry a tube of Nutri-Cal or Nutri-Stat with you as well? We did whenever we were training or Field Trialing the Springer Spaniels.

Yes, I have a first aid kit made for dogs that I keep in the truck. With this dry summer we got into more ground hornets than in the last 8-10 years combined. |

I'd carry it anytime I was training or hunting. What do you do for the dogs when they run into the hornets? |
