Hey im new to this sight but just thought I would comment. I like a dog to hunt and not under my feet but as long as they are staying busy i can work around how far they are ranging most of the time. However I wish that something could be posted somewhere that everyone agrees on as far as range is concerned and if there is let me know lol. I know everybody's idea of short range or long range is different but I just bought a dog that was suppose to long range and I took him on trial and I could see the dog the whole time we were hunting. Now im stuck with a dog that doesn't really suit me bc got the run around on bringing him back which is another story for another time lol. Just would be nice if everybody was on the same page
I agree with you guys though a dogs range should be how far they go looking for sign or pigs not how far they take a track.
It doesn't matter if it was outlined in the dictionary. A dog peddler went at it to screw you , and told you what you wanted to hear, and got the job done. It's ashamed it happens as much as it does .
