No Malcolm. 

If you had said something like 'it isn't uncommon for wildllife to be wary
of humans and their dogs', you might not be being attacked on this

have been using dogs to flush game birds out of cover for ages.


Yes but they don't fly towards the dogs they fly away.

As I said in another post do a bit of research round ducks and the word decoy.
