Home Forums Birds & Dogs Hunting Dogs How "tough" is your Gun Dog?

My old Pudelpointer "Bear" was tough enough. A picture of him after a December horseback hunt for huns on the Saskatchewan prairie at -25�C



he'd retrieve beavers almost as heavy as he was

And after tearing the infraspinatus muscle right off of his shoulder blade, he went on to hunt the uplands one more year without the use of that muscle.

He was a hard worker but gentle with kids, a good ol' dog and I miss him.
