I haven’t read the whole thread, BUT WILL, I gotta get to work, but I will throw this thought of mine, if it has been already said I apologize.

 I pet ALL my dogs often, BUT I am a bit of a stickler in the woods, I DO NOT like my dogs petted while they are working--- I could be wrong BUT I was taught it teaches them to stay close instead of ranging out ---NOW--- after words while they in the box or at home I like kids to play with them and I like them to COME TO ME WHEN CALLED that takes a considerable amount of interaction on my part, so they learn to trust me and that it’s OK and GOOD to come when called. 

I enjoy ALL ASPECTS of dog care, breeding, hunting and training and that also includes affection which in my personal opinion is an integral aspect of training.
