Duchess is all buisness when she's in the field.
She's fast and furious, but also very biddable
and responds well to Bob's commands.

Bob with fellow hunters Terry Miller and Tim Sims on Saturday, October 27, 2007.
We only saw one rooster the entire day, but the dogs sure worked hard and we enjoyed ourselves.
... but kind of a disappointment after the South Dakota experience...

Saturday, December 30th, 2006
Bob took Bristol and Dave Crockett
(a potential client) to the
Iowa Pheasants and More
bird preserve for a day of hunting.
Bristol found and pointed many birds including both pheasant and quail.
When Bristol was in Tennessee for professional training, she was trained using quail and up until now that was the only type of bird that had been shot over her. Today she pointed her very first pheasant rooster!

I have attached a few pics of Roscoe working on late season, wild pheasant in North Dakota December 16, 2007.
In the first pic, he pointed the bird from about 20-25 feet. It was a running rooster and young Roscoe just didn’t know what to do. But he stayed put until I released him.
In the second pic he pinned a wild rooster at about 5 feet.
The third pic is just a great photo of my dog as he matures into a serious hunting partner.
He is smart, figuring things out for himself and loves to hunt. His poor nose and jowls were rubbed almost bloody after 5 days in the field, but he wouldn’t quit.
Really great stuff.
This is a good dog, headed to being maybe a great dog.

On Sunday we went out and I watched [Jack] point a rooster at 30 yards in heavy cover. He moved about ten feet in the other direction and locked on again, then did this one more time before I was able to flush the bird. It was truly amazing to watch him do this and know that he knew what he was doing.

Morgan has shown great instinct in the field and loves any opportunity to hunt. Around the house, she is our little shadow and would gladly cover us in kisses. Affectionate doesn't begin to describe her! She also loves our trips up to the lake, where she can run and swim freely. In looking at your web site, we get a kick out of how much she looks like her mama, and their personalities sound alike as well!
Take care and keep up all the great work you're doing with these wonderful dogs.
