Let's See Hunting Dog Pictures!

[Founder]

In memory of my good buddy, Juke, who moved on from us on Wednesday after a short battle with cancer, let's see some photos of your loyal companions. Are they bird hunters, shed hunters or do they backpack with you?

My Juke wasn't much of a bird hunter, but he loved going antler hunting and scouting the high country for big bucks. He and I were so close. I work from home, so all his life he has been by my side almost constantly. He had a chair right behind mine. We did daily walks or hikes. We've done many, many back packing trips, he even summited King's Peak. He meant so very much to me and will always be greatly missed.

 

[MrShane]

Sorry for your loss.
My dog, Bolt, is a knucklehead but loves the birds.

 

[feddoc]

Sorry for your loss.

My dogs aren't true hunting dogs, although their lineage says they were used for jaguar hunting in Brazil.

Here they are out for a pee break at 10K feet, sniffing on elk and wolf tracks.

This is ole Buck. He was an determined retriever and phenomenal companion for my boys. The pup is Hawk. More about him soon. That's a young MountainSqwabler in there too.

 

[tailchasers]

Meet Hawk. He had natural bird talent like none other. Loved hunting. Love people. And was a duffus. We lost him early in his life at 9 years old. Best hunting dog we've ever had. BTW all our dog are part of the family.

 

[tailchasers]

Then there's Oscar. He grew up with labs, acted like a lab, and swam like a lab. Dammedest little dog we ever had. He retrieved fish while you were reeling them in and nearly anything else. He swam with the big boys all the time.

 

[tailchasers]

And now we have Henry. He's not been raised as a hunting dog, more of a buddy and companion. He has been on one hunt but showed no interest. He goes to work with me nearly every day and is with me 95% of the time. He is my pal. He loves water, boating, his Frisbee, chasing sticks in the lake, rides, and hanging out by the fireplace. He's a good boy....

 

[Airborne]

I'm partial to pointers. I have more dog pics in my phone than I care to admit. Currently run 4 dogs, have hunted wild birds in 16 states give or take. Been a fun time.

 

[ChocolateLabNut]

I shouldn't say it, but Goose is the best dog I'll ever have...

[Wyo_Roadhunter]

This is Archer sorry for alot of pictures but he's definitely my best buddy haha. He's a good shed dog when he wants to be and is always a good bunny retriever. I'm not much of a bird hunter so he kind of got robbed from that but I think he still has fun. He's always hungry and would trade me for a cheese stick in a heartbeat.

Here is ziggy. Cant bird hunt for crap. But has a nose for deer. Sit up on a ridge and he will smell them out and spot them. Then he looks at me several times to make sure see i what he is looking at. Also enjoys a good rabbit hunt.

Hi Wyo, Mrs Sikora loves the table top picture she told me to ask you if you put the dog treats up on the other table or maybe he thought he seen another shed hiding up there and needed to confirm before he went to get you Lol! That could be right!

 

[Blackie6]

This was Dixie. She’s been gone for a bit, but the last dog I had.

 

[Tikka]

Okay 1 more… We were getting ready to huntt sage chickens last September… I came out of the house to this, I was madder than he!!… I wish this boy was still around, I’d let him do this anytime he wanted… Well as long as it wasn’t my truck…

 

[joesikora]

Hi tailchasers! The trainer texted Mrs Sikora that Ms Bella is in heat! He said that almost all the girls are in heat as well. The Males must be going nuts.

I think he just knows he actually owns the house so he thought it was a good idea to check that spot out

Here are my two. Both llewellin setters. The white one is my male CJ. He’s kind of a knot head. But super loving and affectionate. Hunts fair.
My female the darker dog is Miss B. (My daughter named her). Shes all business and is a chukar slayer! Best dog breed I’ve ever owned.

Sorry for your loss.

My copper is 10 this coming May and she isn’t getting

Sorry for your loss. I lost my best friend a year ago and feel your pain to this day. Riley was my best friend first and hunting companion second......

[tailchasers]

This is awesome . Thanks for sharing all!! Dogs rank higher then most people to me. This is my grand son with his pal Peaches. She's my oldest boys lab and a sister of another litter to Henry! She ain't no hunter either but then it's hard to object. She's great!

 

[wstrntines]

I’ve got 3 dogs none of them hunt birds. The border collie and lab killed 6 mice last night and the border collie ate 3 of them.

Our dachshund Willie is quite the dog 2 weeks ago he grabbed a mouthful of chicken feathers. He and our lab Waylon are going on 10 and the border collie Nyla will be 9 next year. All of them are great dogs and have their funny personalities.

Spoiled and part of the family is the only way to have em! I love my Vizslas. I am not looking forward to the day that they are not curled up next to me.

 

[grizzly]

I feel so bad for anybody that's lost a good dog. It's a lot harder than people realize until they've been through it.

We had our yellow lab, Aspen, for almost 13 years before we had our daughter, but there were no hard feelings from Aspen when we brought our little girl home from the hospital. Aspen immediately became her protector until that horrible day we had to take her to the vet for the last time.

This is Aspen's last swim, I don't think it gets any prettier than that...

We've got a new puppy now and she's fantastic

Sierra.
She's 12, and scrolling back, she's been white faced for half her life. Threw in one from when we were both younger, less grey, and in better shape

Only dog that my boys have ever hunted with.

Hoping she has one more season in her

 

[runamuk]

Sorry, founder, juke is a fine looking dog.
Best way to ease the pain of losing a dog is getting a pup.

 

[runamuk]

The dog I posted above is 11 years old now, so I got a pup this year and she is showing great promise.

The day I picked her, I had first choice of the litter.

First day in her new home.

I only got to Hunt over her about 10 times, then I broke my damn leg and Chukar season was over for us.
I’m extremely happy with the little bit. I did get to see from her.
She is just barely 5 months old in these pictures. Natural retriever, natural backer, definitely has a good nose, and holds point well.

Sorry for your loss, tough to say the least.

[MountainSqwabler]

Sorry, I posted pictures but never made any tale of them.

This guy Here is Bow. Bow is the dog that saved my life more times than I can count. He was the dog that showed up in my life at the time that he couldn't have been needed more, the dog I never deserved. He has been the bestest boy a guy could ever ask for. He gives hugs when they are needed and when they are not, he loves to play with ANY toy, and he has a heart for hunting that won't quit. I've seen him almost kill himself to get a retrieve that I was trying to pull him off of because he just wouldn't stop. He taught me more about patience, love, care, and persistence than anyone ever has or will. From 6 weeks old, to the same goofy loving guy he is now.

 

[Buck300]

Not necessarily a hunting dog but he likes it when I go hunting

[feddoc]

I don't have any pictures I can find of my Husky. But one year we took him and my Chow on a hunting trip and put them both in a kennel in town just before the hunt. Day after the hunt i picked them up. We tagged out on elk and deer, so there was a bit of work deboning. And a lot of scraps.

I guess my Husky Micah got full because after awhile he was taking his scraps and disappearing around the corner. (we had about 8" of snow). I watched him and saw him use his nose to root out a hole in the snow, drop his meat scraps and then cover it up with snow.

That was also the first year I saw wolf tracks... walking between the truck and our trailer (dogs were in town) following a doe....late 70s, southern CO.

Is the other pooch with Copper a Jagdterrier? I am a small dog guy, mostly Jack Russells and Terrier/Beagle mixes. I am curious about the Jag's. I have read a few things about their temperament, but I do not have any personal experiences around them. They are s'posed to be pretty relentless little hunters. What's your take on them if any?
