Well there you go. Don't take this as offensive because I'm not trying to be, but it takes a whole different dog...bred and hunted a whole different way to be able to drop him/her from the tailgate and that dog go make a 1/2 to a mile loop ALONE-MEANING WITHOUT YOU in cold sign while you wait and listen than it does a dog that just eases along with you in the woods while your walking. Just personal preference, but if the latter type of dog is what a person desires, you better keep your hands off 'em when they're pups.
