NO...I have seen many a pup done in getting shot over before he is ready.....
SHOULD SHE BE OUT IN THAT ENVIORMENT.SHE WAS SHOT OVER LAST WEEKEND.I TOOK MY 3 YR OLD OUT AND GOT HIM ON A FEW BIRDS AT MY BROTHER IN LAWS HUNTN CLUB.THEY WERE ALSO HOLDING A SKEET SHOOT AT THE CLUB AT THE SAME TIME.SHE DID FINE.BUT I DONT WANT HER OUT WANTING TO PLAY WITH MY 3 YR OLD WHEN HE IS HUNTIN.HE HUNTS WELL BUT IS STILL LEARNING.THANKS
I would take my 4 month old pup but wouldnt be shooting over it. Could be valuable lessons learned and now is a great time to learn them. Cut your season in half this year or scrap it all together. You wont regret it next year or the year after.
I hope your kidding about letting a 3 year old gun over dogs or gun at all.
