Non traditional birds for training?

[Nulle]

We have tons of doves in our area and I do not hunt them with my dogs and it is just what I prefer to do and not the lay of the land so to speak. If ya want to use them go ahead but I don't.
Many trainers do use pigeons on their dogs with no problem but again I would never use starlings and sparrows on my dogs I got enough problems with them bumping them in the field when they are bored and no game birds in the area.
