Whining Dog

[srfishin15]

I have a lab that is not new to hunting but IS new to waterfowl hunting. She has a very hard time sitting still while we are out there but thats gotten a little better now that we're a few trips into the season. The one thing I cannot get her to do is be quiet. She whines LOUD the entire time, especially when there are ducks flying close and I start to call to them. It's loud enough that it seemed to flare a few birds today. Anybody else's dog ever do this? How do you get it to stop? She's a bred pheasant hunter and associates hunting with running and movement. But the whining and pawing at me I can't get her to stop. Any advice will help.

Thanks.

An e-collar really keeps my dog quiet by just even wearing it. Never used one until I got my lab this spring and I have come to realize their value. But I must add I started with a self correcting bark collar right out of the gate so he knows what it is.
