I'm looking at getting another dog(haven't had one in a few years) I understand what I assume you guys are calling ribbon dog,but "rock dog" is a new one for me,like I said, been out of the loop in a lotta ways for a few years but a quick explaination would be much appreciated..
Thanks in advance guys!

People throw rocks, shell hulls stuffed with mud, or any other heavy thing they can find, in the direction of the fallen bird to give the dog an idea of where it's at. Rock dogs aren't trained on signals other than where you throw the rock. Ex baseball players have far better return rates on downed birds if they have a rock dog!
