Home Forums Birds & Dogs Hunting Dogs i pick my lab up tonight

Here's an update from this evening.
First goose fell right in front of us, wounded. Trap dove in and went for it. Goose dove underwater. Trap did too. Both came up, trap tried to grab it, but under it went again. Next time it came up, trap grabbed it.
Sorry for crappy pics, but cell phone pics are better than none.

We stood on the top of the bank, loving him up, when 6 more came from off to our right over the trees.
A load of 2's brought one down, but hit with a smack about 50 yards on the other side of the river.
Sent him, and he dove off the top of the bank, swam straight over and disappeared in the willows and other junk.
A few seconds later, here he comes running out with goose in mouth!
Swam back and delivered to hand.
Probably a good hunert yard retrieve.

Trophy pic.

He is turning out to be a fine retriever and my best friend.
I love my dog!
