When I bought my girl the first thing out of the breeders mouth was "theses are 'hunting dogs' not some fancy AKC 'show dogs', they run big and solid." I was happy with that. In her prime she was a solid 65-67 pounds which is damn big for an AKC standard male. Now she's about 75 and has those fatty GSP bumps old knees and hips. A little aspirin and a good spirit gets her through though. The dog just loves to hunt. She was an awesome grouse,chukar,pheasant, duck, goose,blood trailing dog. Now in her "golden years" at 13 she trees squirrels and bumps bunnies for me. All that trash I never let her "hunt" in her prime.
I also dig the old Land Cruiser. A little something you picke up from SA?


Keep your powder dry and stay frosty my friends.
