Beautiful photo thanks for sharing.
Re: The Meaning
Yes, because from a dog's perspective, a Man's (or Women's) love is all he/she has to bank on. The owner needs to love the dog enough to get them out into the field often, to feed and care for it. Working dogs need work!!! I love my dogs!!
Re: The Meaning
Great looking dog!
Re: The Meaning

Drive 3000 miles round trip, Tenn. to SD, frequent stops and two days each way. (No air travel, read too many horror stories and my dogs ain't gonna' add to the stats) Spend well over a thousand bucks on license, food and lodging. Walk a thousand miles. Bring home the possession limit of 15 ring-necks and give most of them away.
Tramp through saw briars and assorted devilish weeds for four hours for 3 or 4 quail - 3 oz, each. Spend an hour that night picking cuckle burs out of the dogs, and often washing out the nasty stuff they inevitably roll in.
Sure. Shooting the birds is fun. But 90% is companionship with the dog(s), and the sheer joy of watching a good pointing dog work, is why we do it! Take the bird dog out of the equasion and I'll swap hunting for bingo.
Please excuse the spelling. I am an engineer, which explains it.
