Add to the Boykin and Wach. the AWS it is the kind of work it was bred for, it was the trappers/market hunters dog of the north country. Turkeys can be trained, they are pretty good in big water also, I hunted the major estuaries of the PNW and inland reservoirs for waterfowl pheasants, quail, grouse and woodcock.. Her ashes are buried on the shores of Grey's Harbor and made her last big water retrieve at 14.
