Has too much time on their hands
I grew up with a female Chow. She lived to hunt! If I didn't take her out she'd go off hunting pheasants/rabbits/pigeons/groundhogs on her own.
My friend had a female border collie. She was the best rabbit dog I've ever seen. The only trouble was - she was so fast she'd catch the rabbits herself before anyone could get a shot off.

That could be my problem too. Milo is crazy fast and ridiculously agile. I would be afraid of hitting her because she would be on the rabbits tail the whole time or catch it before I could squeeze off a shot!
Totally new to hunting. Please excuse my ignorance. That is all.

Theyre great dogs, as companions ( which is what they're bred for), I'll stick to taking my lab out hunting.
"Camo" is perfectly acceptable as a favorite colour.

Well it looks like I won't be hunting with a Collie. After owning her for 2 weeks, we had to give her back to the SPCA. On Friday she tried to kill my wife's family's little dog when it growled at her. Literally tried to break its neck not just wrestle with her. My wife's hand got cut up pretty back trying to pry her jaws open. Apparently she could be good for hunting though lol. Just not for a young couple whose entire extend family has dogs which are all alphas and too much chance for huge fights.
Side note my wife also had to put down her lab-poodle cross this weekend too because of cancer. It wasn't a good dog weekend... gave up one dog, put down another and trying to heal another from puncture wounds all over the neck and a broken leg
