I would have my shotgun and shells ready when the season comes in. Once he figured out that you shoot the birds for him, you will be set.

I would say whoever it will benefit at any given time will claim the success. The female's owner will claim the success with the next litter and the stud owner will claim the success anytime a good dog develops from the litters he has sired.
