I have a pointer needing to be gun broke yet, and I have shot arounder, but not over her.
I have been told by some not to worry about it till a pup is a year old. Another said his dog held a point on quail at 6 mos old so he flushed it and shot it...
So I'm interested in any advice, I've heard alot up to this point. I have shot a starter around her while she is running after a training dummy, as well as in the field when birds have been flushed but she isnt super close.
She isnt crazy about gun fire, but she doesnt tuck tail and run either.
I wanna get her steady to wing and gun, but the gun is a pretty big deal.
Have any experiences to share, advice for a nOOb? I'll take it!
