Denver's Second Trial

Post by Melvin4730 » Mon Jan 27, 2014 9:19 am

I ran him off horseback in the open derby at the field trial at Di Lane this weekend. This was his second trial, first off horseback. It was my first time handling. Denver finished second.

Very cool. Congrats. You guys see any wild birds? I've heard they had a good bird crop there this year.

Big enough for the biggest going AA dogs in the country, pretty sure your gun dog will be ok provided it stays off the roads.
