Many hunters entertain the idea that their prized hunting dog will never be a good hunting dog if he is allowed to step foot in the house. This notion is absurd. Modern hunters of today often miss out on the true companionship that their hunting dog can give to them in the other areas of their life and perhaps in the end, they suffer as much as the dog does from the lack of socialization with their hunting dog who can also be their companion and friend.

It took thousands of years for mankind and canines to develop a partnership. That partnership included the mutual ability to give each other aid and affection. It also built upon the canine’s natural watchdog and guarding capabilities and afforded both the human and the dog a sense of companionship and mutual trust. That togetherness also allowed for the dog to learn more and for the human to train the dog more.

Dog Hunting Tips
Certainly in the early days of the settling of America the settlers who were lucky enough to have a dog did not dream of sticking him into a pen and leaving him there…the dog was a valuable part of their survival because it could do a great deal to protect the homestead besides being a warm body next to the fireside and helping the hunter to bring home the next meal.

Perhaps the basis of keeping the dog penned except during the hunt came from the traditions established by the nobility of Europe and England when large kennels were the norm for the landowner. Of course it was unfeasible to keep hundreds of dogs in the house. But there was never a time when the Lord of the Manor did not keep his favored hounds in his home with him. The large kennels did a great deal to establish good hunting lines and different breeds, for selective breeding could be more easily accomplished when there were large numbers to choose from for the matings. But the average hunter is not selectively breeding. He has no need at all to keep the dog penned up except during the hunting season.

Next check your local surplus shop, as most OD or US woodland sets can be found for $5-$25 bucks depending on how used it is. If you live near a military base, try to find an off base surplus store near by as it will be a goldmine in kit for sale. Surplus shops are great because you can browse and sometimes find a really rare items if you know what your looking for. If your local shop is big in imported airsoft goods you probably will find some Swiss Alpenflauge or East German DDR rain camo for next to nothing! Rule of thumb is pick a pattern that works well every season and limits the use of black.

If that fails, you can always try the internet. There is all sorts of web stores around full of different patterns. From former Eastern Bloc states uniforms and current issue Russian to South African and sometimes the odd Australian Auscam uniform.

Next would be something to carry the AEG magazines, either a tactical vest or a webbelt and harness system. The webbelt and harness’s come pretty cheap, mind you in most cases you do have to buy the pouches seperate. Pick a neutral color for these, or a pattern that matches or blends well with your uniform. Your equipment should be checked if it fits your magazine type, general rule of thumb is one AK mag is fits one Armalite (with magpul) and two mp5 magazines / pouch cell. For modern “Western” army gear, sometimes the cheap alternative is buying a “knock off” replica vest. Lots of players in the States seem to be buying these to complete impressions.
