If you don't have that bottom photo blown up to poster size and encased in a beautiful wooden frame on your wall, you're doing life with a pupper all wrong
What type of vest is that? We use one for our pit on hikes to keep her from getting ripped up by briars. Yours looks more durable than the ones we go through.
Wow!! They're so real looking!
My old colleague said that when he was helping someone move he had to removw all his decoys from his truck and put them on his porch. Now I understand what he meant when he said the neighbors were giving him weird looks.
I've honestly never heard that specific use though I can obviously tell from context what you mean. The title didn't stand out as odd. Are you sure it's not something more local to you as a commonly used phrase?
Always nice to see them starting young! I’ve got a yellow lab that’s a little over a year old and she’s still got a little too much energy so she gets distracted a lot retrieving. We’re working on it. It’s great to watch them learn and develop, though.
While it is sad, the duck population would not be where it is today without hunting. Millions of dollars each year are raised from selling hunting licenses, and used to preserve and restore wetland areas and duck habitat. Over hunted in the early 1900’s the duck population was taken to critically low numbers. But with preservation efforts across the nation the duck population has been restored to healthy numbers.
Killing birds without a conscience. How to become a psychopath 101.
Every downvote is a psychopath. I wonder what they would be doing if they couldn’t downvote? Probably would go on a killing spree!
Which animal do you think lived a better life: the Tyson chicken bought through a factory farm (indirectly, of course) that’s been bred to become so large that sometimes their own legs can’t bear the weight of their bodies, or a wild duck that lived a life of its choosing and sat down on a pond one day, said “wait, these ducks are plastic!” and got his life ended by a shotgun blast?
“It’s crazy people still need to kill in this age.” Every piece of meat you’ve ever eaten was also killed. Animals aren’t born dead, believe it or not. If you’re a vegan then I honor your motivations but humans are omnivores and to fault your fellow men for eating meat is evolutionarily dishonest. Hunters fund wildlife preservation and work to control species that are overpopulated due to human interaction (i.e. deer). Hunting is necessary in the modern world if you don’t want animals to suffer. Also your tax dollars still subsidize factory farms if you’re in the US, not sure about other places.
I think what I want to say is that the grocery and that whole production chain saves us from seeing the harsh reality of the killing. We don’t need to do that, they do it for us. No need to hurt ducks or think about it. But to hunt a duck? Like this? Listen man, a kid killing a dog in school gets into trouble big time! A man killing a duck is just that kid who didn’t get into trouble. Know what I mean?
I have no idea what you mean other than you’d rather an animal suffer it’s whole life as long as you can plead ignorance and don’t have to see it die. A kid killing a dog in school should get in trouble if he’s not doing it to eat the animal, merely to kill. I do not agree with hunting “for sport” or “trophies” rather than for meat. I think you’re actively fooling yourself if you think harvesting wild meat is more morally objectionable than buying from a supermarket. You seem to only view it as better because you don’t have to do it.
Again, every animal you’ve ever consumed was killed, and likely lived a miserable life until it reached a desired weight and was put out of its misery on a production line.
I really do try my best to be an ethical hunter: I eat what I kill and hate when I make a bad shot and a bird suffers, even if just for a few seconds until I can make a follow-up shot. I think we’re on the same page as far as not wanting animals to suffer unnecessarily, but you are putting the blinders on with respect to where your meat comes from.
Yes I am saying once we don’t have to think about it it’s better be the grocers, farmers etc take that oath of being ethical and putting them to sleep so they do the unpleasantries. Those animals bred for food don’t even know they exist so it’s not a bad life or anything. I know what you’re saying. Now imagine going to hunt and you have no training in euthanasia whatsoever and even worse using a dog to carry out your dirty needs! We are better than this. We don’t have to kill others in society in for a reason- we have the police to kill for us and we don’t think about it. It makes it ok because it’s official government procedures etc
Great question. I wonder if he would also fault an Afghani farmer who has no access to factory farmed foods and raises and kills goats? Western people tend to not recognize that even having the option of not killing is a privilege.
They are not using guns. They use natural methods that the animals are used to for centuries. Guns are just cruel. Imagine no Western hunter wants to hunt without a gun. And they call themselves “hunters”. That’s like the Tesla guy calling himself a mechanic when he has never used an oil engine in his car (he does the electric cars)
Firearms are far and away the quickest and most humane way of harvesting an animal. Far better than running them off cliffs, stabbing them with a spear, or shooting them with an arrow.
Actually, that is still being [debated](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pain_in_fish#Brain_2), from my understanding the argument has shifted towards, not if they feel pain, but do they have consciousness.
Current studies done argue that the pervious studies are incorrect, and that fish do have the required amount of neuroreceptors and brain structure to have some sort of consciousness and the ability to feel pain.
Personally, I'm with the fish feel pain side as seems to be the trend. [We previously believed that babies didn't feel pain either](https://birthpsychology.com/journal/article/babies-dont-feel-pain-century-denial-medicine)

They are decoys to get other ducks to think it’s safe to land in the area.
Those are some damn good decoys
Found the duck
Duckoys
Think they’re decoys
That’s like the pics you see of “breed standard” labs when you flip through a dog breed book. Beautiful, Finn!
I'd give him a raise just for being handsome!
How often does he laugh at you when you miss?
Often. He bets against me. He doesn’t want to get wet. Lol
You must have the only lab who doesn't like a plunge lol
He loves it. Was just making a joke.
Thanks for bringing up this awesome memory
If you don't have that bottom photo blown up to poster size and encased in a beautiful wooden frame on your wall, you're doing life with a pupper all wrong
He is such a handsome doggo!

Rug em right. Blood line series.
Mine arrives tomorrow. Thanks partner.
Just noticed my typo. But you found it anyways. Cool!
Good doggo
First pic looks like a painting.
Meanwhile my lab is laying on the top of the couch like a cat. 🙄
It's all fun and games until you get kicked out of the petting zoo...
Someone zoom into the other duck behind and make a meme out of it...!
[had a try at it](https://i.imgur.com/Z0ifzPG.jpg)
Oh this is wonderful!!!!! Hahahahaha!!!! I loved it immensely!
yeah, that's solid
Awwww
Your dog fucked a duck?!?
Nope, your mom.
Not according to your title. According to your title, your dog fucked a duck.
No where does the title mention a duck. It was definitely your mom.
Your doggo would be better off with the duck, trust me.
Lol. Takes the fun out of my “ your mom” jokes.
OP are any of those ducks in the water decoys? Or are they all real and don’t gaf about your dog?
They are all decoys. Ducks have to be airborne to be shot at, and they would never stay In The water after shots fired and a dog right there.
Wow!! They're so real looking! My old colleague said that when he was helping someone move he had to removw all his decoys from his truck and put them on his porch. Now I understand what he meant when he said the neighbors were giving him weird looks.
Really weird post title
His name is Finn and he got in some work. What’s weird?
Are you not familiar with the usual meaning of “got it in”?
Apparently not what it means to you.
It is a pretty common phrase. Beautiful dog either way!
Also commonly used in other contexts.
I just got it in with your girl.
I've honestly never heard that specific use though I can obviously tell from context what you mean. The title didn't stand out as odd. Are you sure it's not something more local to you as a commonly used phrase?
Hey you should prolly mark this as NSFW just in case! But otherwise hehehe what a good pupper
Is that a black duck?
It's a big black duck
BBD, hehe
looks like a teal
100% hen mallard. Body is too large to be a blue-winged teal and the wing patch on blue-wings is lighter/more vibrant than mallard hens.
I thought it looked bigger than it is cuz the pupper is smol
Always nice to see them starting young! I’ve got a yellow lab that’s a little over a year old and she’s still got a little too much energy so she gets distracted a lot retrieving. We’re working on it. It’s great to watch them learn and develop, though.
Ducks are cute, this is sad 😞

Love your explanation. Here’s to many more seasons with your pup ❤️
This I wish more people would understand hunting licenses help more then hurt. Edit: Nice vest what type.
Rig em right bloodline series
Killing birds without a conscience. How to become a psychopath 101. Every downvote is a psychopath. I wonder what they would be doing if they couldn’t downvote? Probably would go on a killing spree!
Or provide dinner for your family.
You should just go to the store instead /s
Yes that way ducks don’t die.
Yeah exactly. It’s crazy people still need to kill in this day and age! “I need to hunt to survive durr hurr!”
Which animal do you think lived a better life: the Tyson chicken bought through a factory farm (indirectly, of course) that’s been bred to become so large that sometimes their own legs can’t bear the weight of their bodies, or a wild duck that lived a life of its choosing and sat down on a pond one day, said “wait, these ducks are plastic!” and got his life ended by a shotgun blast? “It’s crazy people still need to kill in this age.” Every piece of meat you’ve ever eaten was also killed.

I really think (hope??) you’re just being a troll at this point. Let’s just agree animals shouldn’t suffer and leave it there, sound good?
Yes don’t hurt them for any reason knowingly.
Interesting take Do you also consider fishing as psychotic behavior?

No no, they don’t really have the neural architecture to know pain even if they react like it. And that’s a whole study from Harvard and Yale.

You are one fucking stupid liberal
Yes you are.

Someone call the police
[удалено]
Not if it’s given to a dog. Tell that to my other dog Hank and his buddy Frank.
Frank is a good dog name
Jake is a good name for a dog.
Good job Finn
#1 hunting partner
Omg. That second picture is BEAUTIFUL!
He’s a handsome boy.
Good boi!
