Thanks Rob..........

Believe it or not he is actually a Wirehair. "bleep" dog is so fast he ran his furnishings off 8)

His motor never stops. Good eye as he is the most serious dog I have ever owned.

Boy there's so many photo's here I can't get them all uploaded, my computer got stuck! Haven't taken much of the dogs for a month or so. But never posted this one before. Film photo from a panoramic camera.

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL dogs!

BDU:
Nice Christmas gift! And I think you are right...maybe this should evolve into a new division of the forum. Everyone has sent in beautiful pics so far! I plan on continuing this contest for at least the rest of 2009, with a different theme each month. Keep up the good work all!

Our new Setter from the shelter. She's showing promise as a bird dog, as well as learning manners. She fits right in with our Wirehairs and our other Setter. :D

Some absolutley gorgeous pics here!!!
I hit the grouse woods this afternoon, beautiful day to be out. Only had 4 points, 6 flushes total, slow day, but sure beat the heck out of working or being stuck in the house!!! (didn't bag any though, missed 2 easy shots :oops: )
Here's one of the points I managed to get a pic of.......(These were taken with the zoom...she was pretty far out & the birds were reallly jumpy, couldn't get any closer w/o missing the opportunity to get a shot, missed anyway.... :roll: )
Image

I love all of the pictures! The snow ones are great, but sadly we don't have any snow down here in SC! We were up in WV with Bruce (AHGSP) this past week and I managed to get some goods shots of the pups - it was freezing out, but as long as we were hunting birds Mae didn't seem to mind!

There are some great photos here! I have a few favorites for sure.

I don't have a snow picture to contribute myself, because this is the biggest snow we've gotten so far here in Virginia. But if you look closely, there IS snow here!

All 5 of those are near the top of my list so far as well. Another that I really like was one of the first, one that I think really says "January":

Image

It is cut off for some reason on here, but the actual photo is really good.

BDU, peak, chaingang, grange, crackerd, really everyone has some good shots. I REALLY like about 7 or 8 right now. I know it is going to be tough to sit down and go though them all at the end of the month and decide on a winner.

The good news is everyone will have at least 12 chances to win. The bad news is if the pictures keep getting better it is going to be impossible to choose winners.

We love it.
