The pheasant season is excitedly waited on in our house by OH and Max the dog, OH is part of a small shoot locally and has been making pheasant pens all summer, mending stone walls and making safe crossovers for the dogs (sacking round barbed wire mainly) now he's started on the pheasant feeding rota. Max even gets carried away when OH gets the gun out to go Clay Pigeon shooting, we sometimes have a heckuva job calming him down, we've even took to loading the pick-up hile he's otherwise engaged so he doesn't know OH is going shooting! ;D
