We
currently hold two licenses issued by the
Indiana Department of Natural
Resources. One is the Shooting Preserve License and the other is the Dog
Training Grounds License. These licenses allow us to release game birds year
round for dog training purposes.
From May 1st to September 1st birds can only be
released in field 1.
Dog training areas allow the use of quail and
pheasants for dog training year-around. Pigeons, Chuckars and other non-native
birds can be used year around on any grounds in the State of Indiana. Attached
is a game bird synopsis
from the Indiana DNR.
Also attached are the
Federal
regulations which govern the use of captive mallards for dog training for
any areas in Indiana.
