Alpha 10 vs Whistle + e-collar
Looking for thoughts when it comes to these two options. Will be using the new Boykin-dog for blood trailing deer outside of typical Boykin-dog duties. Already have a standard e-collar, but want tracking option too, especially once we get into deer work. I don’t think I really have the need for an Alpha 100 or higher. Seems like a 10 would do everything I’d need it to once the dog is collar conditioned. But it honestly seems like a Whistle paired with the regular e-collar might work just as well or better.
The only caveat is that I do have plans of adding a squirrel dog to the pack in the next year or two, which is where I’d see that an Alpha would have the upper hand.
What say the masses?
