Just a heads up...

If I call "LOW BIRD!" you may want to get prone quick like. I'll call "CLEAR" when it's safe to get up.

opening day dove season can be tough on your dog. if you hunt with one be careful, overheating can kill them fast.
this is serious stuff boys, it will ruin your day for sure to have a dog die in your arms.

a couple of things to keep in mind-

before the hunt keep your dog cool and limit their activity. no need to let them "run their wheels off" before the hunt even starts

keep them under control while walking to stand, use a lead if you have to

bring plenty of water, you can't bring too much water and if you run out of water call the hunt. a dove is not worth a dead dog

do a google search and read a bunch. I pasted one of the best bits of information below. note what I highlighted in bold

Treating Heat Stroke: What Owners Can Do

There are certain things that owners of dogs suspected of suffering from heat stroke can do to enhance their dogs’ chances of survival. First, owners should contact their veterinarian or the closest emergency veterinary clinic and alert them to the situation and their anticipated arrival time. If you can speak with a veterinarian, ask what steps you should take before and while you are transporting your animal to the hospital. If you cannot actually talk to a veterinarian or veterinary technician who can give you sound advice, common nursing care protocols involve spraying the dog with cool water or immersing it in cool water; using convection cooling with fans or cooling pads; and using evaporative cooling with isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol on the foot pads, under the front armpits (axilla) and on the groin or flank areas. Dogs should not be immersed in ice or ice-cold water. Cooling a hyperthermic dog too quickly can cause its blood vessels to restrict (peripheral vasoconstriction), which can impede heat dissipation. It is also wise to monitor the dog’s rectal temperature regularly, and stop these cooling procedures once its temperature decreases to 103 F.
