Huntress... that's great! Sounds like he's doing the whole association thing with the fact that he can't pick 'em up in the shop to me too. Sounds like you've got a smart dog. I'd be real interested to hear about his progress and your techniques in training him. Keep up the good work!

If you are looking for some info. on training your dog to look for sheds go to www.deersheddog.com or just type in training dog to shed hunt. Alot of info. will pop up. I'm in the process of trying to teach my lab to shed hunt. She carries one of my antlers that I found all around the house all day!!! One of the articles said to introduce them to shed hunting like this. I have been taking her in the woods and hiding the sheds . She is actually starting to caught on by sight and by smell. She rather have her antler than any other toy. Its taking time but she is coming along.

WT25- It's good to see that someone is having success with their dog! My Springer does NOT like having an antler in his mouth. He finds them but doesn't want to pick them up.
Keep us posted on your dog's progress. Good luck!!!
