Developing On The Dog Update

[Blazikan999]

This is just an idea that may or may not be used to build on the hunting dog update. I would love to have a hunting dog in the hunter because it is nice to have a companion with you when hunting, and someone to help you find that kill. I know in Germany, hunting dogs have become an indispensable partner to the hunter who lives by the code of sportsmanship. In Germany it is considered unsportsmanlike to hunt without a well-trained dog. The dog will track game not killed outright, which enables the hunter to relieve the wounded animal of suffering as soon as possible.

A German proverb states, “Show me your gun and your dog and I will tell you what kind of hunter you are.”

There are different breeds of hunting dogs besides retrievers, such as, pointers, flushers, earth dogs, hounds / beagles, and tracking dogs. Each category has types of dogs that are used for specific purposes. The hunting dogs are separated in these categories because it depends on how the dog can help the hunter or what the Hunter needs.

I know there are a lot of dogs I am about to cover, but take your favorite pick(s) out of the bunch.
