    Now I am a bit confused here. Bramble has now been invited to two shoots, a local shoot and one up near Evesham to work as a picking up dog.
    The problem I have is that I remember when I initially took out insurance that I was asked whether she was a working dog. Well no, she wasn't. So if I am taking her out occasionally to shoot, and something happens, I guess she technically she may not be covered?
    I just wondered what everyone else did?

    Interesting article from earlier in the year...

    I am insured with Pet Plan and my friend works my dog picking up. I phoned Pet Plan twice to ask if I was insured if Rourke was injured on the shoot and they said 'yes', even though he was handled by someone else. You do need to check with your insurance provider as they will wriggle out of paying if they can!
