Rob did you have a coffee mug withyouOriginally Posted by R. Reddog
Had the club challenge pointer vs flushers. Pointer took it this year. B est part was two puppys were in the run off. ONE WAS 9MTH THE OTHER 11MTH. The light came on for that pointer.
Me and my pup went shed hunting for the first time this year...... bit too much snow, but still a good walk in the woods. He has cabin fever worse than me...... thawing out now.... should be able to run some pattern blinds soon!! Cant wait.

No mug. I waited till I got home and made up for it.Rob did you have a coffee mug withyou
Saturday we went out and shot a couple of flier singles for Scooter. I missed both barrels on the second one and it flew off into the woods. Scooter went in after and rooted him out of the creek and brought him back. 3 Fliers for the price of 2.
The gunner is rusty. The dog is rusty. We ran 1 decent all age water blind. Then we hacked up a land blind. I see what I need to work on.
The highlight of Saturday was Lottie, the new pup, getting her first duck. One of the fresh shot fliers.
I posted pictures on the main forum. http://www.retrievertraining.net/for...ad.php?t=66506
After all that I set up the thrower and my 13 year old daughter shot a round of skeet. she broke 14 of 25. She just started last year and she is really improving.
It was a pretty good afternoon all the way round.

I helped run a training day for our club on Saturday. Had probably 25 handlers and probably 35-40 dogs there. It went really well. Then went down to Corsicana for two days and trained with 3 others. My 4 dogs got lots of good training in the last 3 days. Have been running lots of long single marks with lots of concept. They have all improved lately. Couldn't ask for a better last 3 days.

Since the usual field /show debate has reared it's annual head on the main forum I was wondering which category our potus dogs fall into.

Hihope Hiland Heathen of Perth CD, RE, CGC, TDI
Or they will just have their Am judges shoot for themThe gunner can always get practice shooting flyers at the ARC FT & HT this spring...

All of my dogs come from hunting lines. I want them to look good, but I'm more interested in how they perform than how they look. I have one now that isnt' conformtionaly very good, but he sure can find birds, and is a retrieving fool. I would take that any day over some of the show dogs I've seen that couldn't find their food bowl without help.
I believe a dog should be able to do what the breed was intended to do, not just be good to look at.
