Briggs dog finds an antler

Recommended Posts

My wife and I took a trip up to red rock country this weekend, got out for a morning of shed hunting, and my Viszla finally found his first antler (without my help). I'm still waiting for him to bring me a Coue's shed unannounced...

Neo ,

 

It's still bone and only a sign of more to come of the coues variety. Nice looking dog!

 

I see some brown on the one side !

Word! bone is bone! It definitely came home with us.. I've found too many in National Parks and Preserves that I've left laying to leave a sweet National Forest find...

 

Briggs is a good looking dog -- I wish I hadn't been so hasty in snipping him, poor feller...

 

It was a brownie, and only 50 yards from a quad road, it was laying behind a juniper so the riders missed it! Just Brigg's luck!

nice looking dog-I have a Vizsla named Delbert. These dogs are so smart I think you could get them to do about anything if they understand what you want. nice looking shed. Shed hunting is a lot of fun and helps you learn new areas-but I'd much rather be looking for a quail with my dog-wouldn't you? ;)

Looks like that's proof that I can't find all the elk antlers in my neck of the woods........ :angry:

 

Now get back to finding coues sheds and snakes and get the heck out of my country!

Vizsla's seem to have a knack for finding bones. Every time I take mine out into the woods he seems to find elk femurs, antlers, etc. and as a pup he liked to go raid camps nearby and bring back the discarded legs.

 

I am convinced you could train one to hunt sheds just like quail. Just haven't put the time into trying yet.
