new pup(update)
I ended up getting this pup a month ago. A young couple in town had bought him, dont hunt, and really didnt know what they were getting into. A story I think we hear all to often. Ive got 5 dogs so what the heck one more wont hurt. He didnt have any (Zero) training. Ive been working with him for a while almost everyday. He was good to go around guns, plenty of drive,and a pretty good disposition. We hunted wild birds with my older dogs for a couple of hours (75 degrees here at 930 this morning). I didnt hunt 2 of my dogs this morning so decided to plant some birds for them. Said what the heck and let the pup out to. The two older dogs locked up on a bird, the pup came running and slammed on brakes when he caught sight of the other two. I tried to push him, nothing doing. ive shot a few birds over him , but hes never been out with the others, besides just running or playing. I think i may have gotten lucky.

Re: new pup
Don't know. The couple didn't send the papers off and they are trying to find them. Ill probably never know. It's been a month. I really don't think I can pressure them since they gave me the dog.volraider wrote:What's his pedigree?
I do know I probably saved him from a rescue or worse. That's how bad it was. As I stated, a story we here way to often nowadays.
I'll post up some more pics later on

Re: new pup(update)
Kreuzer has really came into his own the past 2 months. Starting to grow straight up and thinning out a good bit. He turned 8 months today. I used him on a preserve hunt yesterday and he pointed a bird ahead of two grown dogs. I left my phone in the truck and couldn't get a pic of him with the two older dogs backing I did get a couple training last week. Amazing what 2 months difference makes. One more hunt next weekend and that will finish us up till next year. With 6 months of training ahead iam excited to see him work this fall!
