No kidding
I found out the hard way
We all have!!!!LOL it's a real pain cleaning up a pheasant tail that's been played with by a lab!!!!!!!!!! Have a buddy on a fly board who lost 3 whiting capes when his brit decided to eat them. Expensive lesson!!!!!!
Why do they do that
smell like game?
Heck a pheasant tail is nothing at all, I had a full Rooster Skin of high quality in Barred Ginger and my dog got it off the table I had it on and started in. Thankfully I caught him before he ruined it all (mostly got wing), but he definitely got me to cut the bird into the cape and saddle. Thankfully he mostly got feathers I didn't care about anyway, but a little more time and I would have lost a $200 bird. Anything that had a skin had his attention big time so had to keep buck tails and everything else away from that dog. I hated losing that dog even though he made me be extra careful with my materials. He passed away last year or so and thankfully the other one that is still going has not shown the same lust for my skins. See picture below which is not all that great, but soon after he got this and started in and I think got it from right were it was sitting in this pic!

My Siamese cats are great hunters, geckos, birds, calf tails, my feathers. They try to get them whenever I leave the door open to my fly tying room.
