Re: Introducing our newest addition Veda
I tossed out a homer that wasn't going to make it this winter and she was all about picking it up and carrying it around.
We'll get to see a few of the pups out of this litter this summer getting ready for NA so that'll be fun.

Re: Shotgun Over/Under for ladies info
I had though about a semi-auto but when she'd go training with me and at hunt tests she'd need a o/u.
Whatever she ends up with it'll get fitted with a good pad and probably put a recoil reducer in it possibly even port it.
