My dog isnt a bird dog.

Dogs are allowed off leash provided they are in the act of hunting during the open bird season. They must be leashed in areas where discharge of a firearm is prohibited ( 400M from a staging area). They must be kept under control as to not harass wildlife or other users. They ask that you leash your dog while passing users on horseback. My beagle isnt exactly a bird dog but they have been ok with him off leash as long as I had the shotgun and discharge permit to prove I was hunting with him.
