My Vizsla did not like chukar as well as hen pheasant. I think it was that the feathers on the chukar seemed to come out easier, getting in her mouth.
Same here for my GSP. Only bird he will not retrieve. But he will show ME where they are.
That's what you get when a dog isn't force broke to retrieve, many will only retrieve what they want when they want to.
My dogs were force broke and all retrieve any type of bird, glass bottles, soda cans, key chains, wood, clothing etc. You name it, they'll retrieve it.
