white dove release

Alternatives to Professional Dove Release
MY ADVICE: USE PROFESSIONAL DOVE RELEASE SERVICES
Some people think they would like to save a few dollars. Maybe I could buy these birds
at a pet store and release them myself? Another crazy thought ?maybe they will ship
them to me for my self release?
Pet shop birds are typically Ringneck Doves or Diamond Doves. Once released into the
wild, they do not know how to defend themselves, or to forage for food. They surely
will perish. They are poor flyers (due to lack of exercise and cage life). They have no
homing ability and some can?t even fly in a straight line.
First we raise a breed of racing pigeon referred to as a Belgium White Racer. These birds
are true athletes; they average about 45 miles per hour, up to about 60 mph. Racers train
regularly from distances of over 100 miles. They exercise daily weather permitting.
They eat special diets and live a rigid training schedule. Once released their only wish is
to get home quickly.
So you don?t follow my advice and self-release birds. What is the worst that could
happen?
Most likely they won?t fly. Maybe just a couple of feet landing in Aunt Betty?s lap as she
throws the bird half scared to death, back into the air. It then fly?s just a few more
yards, lands on your wedding cake. Now covered in icing, fearfully the bird flies toward
Uncle Louie, weighted from all the frosting, the bird has no lift. OHHH NOOOO!!!!!!!!!
All you wanted was a memorable event. CONGRATULATIONS, YOU GOT IT.
Belgium Racers often train from distances of over 200 miles. Our area of service is
designed, so that our birds will be home after a short 1-hour non-stop flight. These birds
don?t even come home tired. Training is done from many different areas, within and
beyond our service area.
On your special day, why would you want to be concerned for any more details then you
already are now. Leave the birds to us. Buy a little piece of mind for yourself and the
birds.
