Dog's First Back

Post by mtlhdr » Mon Dec 30, 2013 10:00 pm

Got out chukar hunting with a buddy and our two youngish shorthairs. This is the first time Chance has hunted with another dog so I was looking forward to seeing him work. Belle locked up on what turned out to be a group of 3 birds that got separated from the covey during a flush from earlier in the day and Chance backed her very nicely (IMHO). Photo isn't great but tells the story. Being a first-time gundog owner, our first season has been so much fun!

Hey,

I'd like to see some of Chance up closer - I like the coloring on that dog!

Brian, sometimes the right side of the photo gets cut off, especially with phones and tablets. I'll email you the photo.

RoostersMom, here another photo.

Thanks for the compliments. I think he has real nice intensity on point, I'm learning to read his head and tail. This back screamed "birds!" I've a blast learning with this dog.
