Doc,
It's not so much like we feel like we owe it to them, it's just so much fun and so rewarding. We have a son who is handicapped, so this puts the guys at ease pretty quickly, and he relates to them as well. It's a good way to reach out. Wish every hunter would give it a whirl, it makes you feel young again. Oh, by the way, one of my favorite dogs is the Chesapeake, it's just too hot here in Texas to keep one.
