Abby is a happy dog after her first quail flush and retrieve!

I well remember the day my Brittany got her first grouse. Things really did click for her...you could see in her eyes the realization that she now understood what all the training was about!

You found a quail in Texas. That is a hell of a dog.
Don't see them like we used to.

I enjoyed the video of the diving duck. I will never forget the time that my young Boykin finally stuck her head under the water to get one after it kept going under. Enjoy your dog. Looks like you are doing a great job.

It is exciting when the light comes on for a young dog!
Boykins are on my short list...They are great little dogs!
The quail population has been coming back slowly out at my lease. 5 years ago, I saw maybe 3 or 4 birds, we now have at least 3 separate groups.
