With heavy "in America" emphasis, also.
Elsewhere in the world, e.g. the uk - in which i grew up in a farming village thank you very much - if you want to hunt a pheasant you shoot it in the air (during "flush", usually brought on by a designated "beater"), shooting it on the ground or using a dog to kill it is unlawful, inhumane, and possibly worst of all: unsportsmanlike.
If you want to farm pheasants you rotate the rearing fields each year and you slaughter them in a slaughterhouse approved by the FSA overseen by qualified (CoC) operators.
Bird dogs don't kill the game birds. They retrieve them. It's why there are entire breeds called retrievers. Some other bird dogs flush the birds so you can shoot them in the air, preserving your so called "sportsmanlike" ways.
