Gotcha... Thx for reply... Sux this happened... That 600yard theory can't be true after a certain age with dogs being right by a muzzle blast for 5yrs or so huh? A good buddy of mines dog just passed the fall grand and he believes she has some hearing loss. Sometimes wind not in handlers favor she can't hear whistle...
