Our Bird Dogs

When you arrive at Flying Feathers, our experienced bird dogs are ready to hunt. Our English Setters and German Shorthaired Pointers are bred and trained for upland bird hunting, and a well-trained dog can make a day in the field far more memorable.

Picture yourself hunting with a couple of friends or entertaining a client, walking through milo or switchgrass as one dog locks onto point and another honors from a distance. You move into position, waiting for the pheasant, quail or chukar to flush. That anticipation is one of the great experiences of bird hunting.

When the bird rises, the dogs go back to work, locating and retrieving downed birds so the hunt can continue. From the first point to the final retrieve, our bird dogs are an important part of the Flying Feathers experience and help make every hunt enjoyable and memorable.

Breeds of Bird Dogs

Flying Feathers primarily hunts with pointing dogs. When a dog picks up the scent of a game bird, it locks onto point and holds steady until released. This gives hunters time to move into position and prepare for the bird to flush.

Watching a well-trained bird dog work is one of the highlights of a hunt at Flying Feathers. Our English Setters and German Shorthaired Pointers have had many birds shot over them and are experienced in a variety of hunting conditions. They love what they do and know how to find birds.

Our dogs hunt under control, hold solid points, honor other dogs on point, and retrieve downed birds. Their experience and natural ability make them an important part of every pheasant, quail, and chukar hunt at Flying Feathers.

There is nothing quite like watching a good bird dog work. Come experience it for yourself at Flying Feathers.
