What a good looking pup! I have quite a few friends in Az that love this breed.
I currently have dogs #4 and 5. I got #4, a female named Asa, when old Abbey was 11. Abbey helped train Asa. Asa picked up many hunting traits earlier than usual as a result.
My wife encouraged me to get a second pup from the same pairing of sire and dam with a age difference of three years. #5, a male named Oli, is a great playmate for Asa and he is picking up her hunting skills. Couldn't be more happy.
Best of luck with your new pup!
