Tips for preparing your dog for hunting season.

Going out hunting during the season, and bringing your dog along? Here are some tips to prepare your dog for the season:

Ensure your pup has the proper training. During hunting, your dog will run ahead of you, and take on tasks that require a strict obedience plan. For this reason, you're going to want to make sure your dog responds to the necessary commands.

Run drills with your dog. The best way to train your dog is to run drills similar to what will happen in the field. True to life activities will prepare your dog for the best possible outcome in the actual event.

Always practice safety. It's important for you to be safe, as well as for your dog to be safe. So invest in the proper gear before hitting the field. Any gear that your dog may wear, place on them beforehand so they can get used to it without it being a distraction.
