  • Capri Gets A Job As the First Waterfowl Detector Dog

    Michael Breton - Friday, 6 November 2009 11:04

    I just shipped Capri off to Darryn from Fish and Wildlife. She is going to be his waterfowl detector dog and Rudi’s playmate. His son Eli is so jazzed about her, as technicaly Eli considers her to be his dog.

    Capri made the trip just fine and Eli is already lobbying for her to stay in his room. Bet he wins that one pretty quick. She’ll take a couple weeks to move from the detector boxes to an oral game and vehicle searches.  Darryn will be searching lots of boats and blinds and I just don’t have that kind of stuff here to work her on. Darryn knows what he’s doing so I’m sure Capri will do just fine.

    I’ll get some photos of her with her new family as soon as I can. Darryn promised to send some out to me via Facebook. His wife is yet to meet Capri, but at least she does know the dog is there. A strange malinois in your house can be quite the suprise.

    Good luck Capri, I’ll see you soon. I’m working on a patrol dog class for Darryn. Yeah, I know dogs can’t read, but she is a malinois and one can never rule anything out.
