"Hot" Hunting
When I really need to carry and conserve water, I take a canteen or
more of water and a quart zip lock bag. I put the water into the
bag and let the dogs drink from the bag, spilling almost none [be sure
and pre-train your dog how to do this so that they do not balk during a
crucial hot hunt!]. What ever the dogs do not drink can be
carefully pored back into the canteen (slobbery but usable for the
dogs) for later in the hunt.
Water and as much shade as we can get.
Maggie catching some shade.
We carry lots of water in the truck and give them all they will drink
before and after all hunts.
