The season is over now here, he finished off retrieving a few ducks and is steady and observes everything with a lot of interest, Di spite his age 20months just over, he is about like a 1 year old dog. He will make a dog for sure i have total confidence in him now, he is nothing like he was just a few short months ago, all the uncertainty i had has gone now. Just left him to it to a large extent he needed hunting time the discipline i got in to him by being gentle with him paid off, the E collar the previous owner had used as never left the drawer where i left it, and never will with this dog. Thanks for the advice, i needed moral support here, this dog was a rebel i had never seen a dog quite like him in behavior. But he is my friend for life now.
