Good lord man are you trying to start a fight :shock:
For doves you just get Anything that can stand the heat and will go get the birds for you. Hell a Jack Russel or Dachshund properly force fetch trained could do that.
For quail there are probably only 100 or so breeds to do that.
Is this dog living in a Kennel or in a house, how much time do you have to train? Any kids around? Lot or little yard? Here are some breeds I or hunting pardners have had good luck with.
Vizsla
Llewellen Setter
Drahthaar
Brittany Spaniel
I've hunted behind some great English Pointers but they were the most unfriendly, no listening SOB's I've ever seen. I've yet to see an E.P. that I really liked and I've hunted behind at least 30 of them and some trained by very well known trainers.
