I trained them both

Post by Don » Sat Mar 03, 2007 11:17 am

Several year's ago, my house burned down and I lost most my old photo's. But going thru some more stuff last week I found this old photo. It's my son at 15 yrs and my old Hannah, she was 4 yrs here. The photo is stuck to the glass from fire damage so this is a photo of a photo.

I did not get to see my son for 8 yrs after an ugly custody fight in Colorado and had finally got him back the fall befor this photo was taken.

We were at a NSTRA Club function with the Port-Van club and having a team shoot in Scapoose, Ore. Dennis ran his dog, or at least one he thought he wanted and did alright but wanted to run again so took Hannah and out he went. Hannah got all the team bird's, three, and retrieved them in 3 min 45 sec. Won the shoot.

A friend Larry Ransier, came over after it was done and asked me how it felt to be beat by my kid with my own dog. What can you say, I trained them both!

Don, Great photo! A fine looking young man and nice looking dog. I'm sure your son appreciates that you didn't give up on the relationship even after being apart for 8 yrs. Congrats on a great job of training both and creating some precious memories for you and your son to share. :wink:
