Do you think that painting the inside of a 20 oz. bottle will work for a land dummy?:idea: If you know how to make them please let me know!!

Don't train with garbage.

My own opinion, if you train with garbage, the dog will bring you garbage. You can buy real dummies relatively cheap and most sporting good stores.

You really need a soft mouthed dog or sending her back for the second retrieve could cost you some points. Especially if you have to handle her around the breakfast nook. :roll:

I rolled up 3 shop rags and then taped them all up tight. Dutch didn't want anything to do with it. I did it in a pinch when I needed an extra bumper but didn't have one.
