My labs bring me live pheasants all the time at the house. If those stupid stocked PA birds are dumb enough to step on my property, they are normally caught by one of them. Most of those stocked birds are runners not flushers, and that's why they get caught.
Shhhh, don't tell the PAGC. I'm sure they'll be hovering around waiting to pinch me b/c my dog hurt their bird out of season, if the local idiot reads this.
Like Roy said, take em anyway you get them. A lot easier than walking for 2 miles in knee deep snow
. No BB's in them either
