NAVHDA NA Test

We were thrilled last year to announce that my Ryman Setter, Roux, earned a Prize III in the NAVHDA Natural Ability Test on August 30th 2024. In the same event, one of my clients’ dogs achieved a Prize I, marking an outstanding milestone in their training and performance. A few months later we headed to Maine for Grouse and Woodcock hunting and she did absolutely fantastic. Unfortunately, midseason, I tore my Achilles tendon and not only my season, but her season was cut short.

2nd place at the chuckar challenge!

First time entering any competition or event. Not bad!

Great Week in Field

Three days in Nebraska. Dogs made us proud

She is a Daisy

I was trying to recover some bloodlines that I had lost when my old Pointer Waylon died before I could get a litter by him. I found Michael Parkinson at White Oak Kennel offered some hope. He had a litter that traced back to the sires and dams of dogs I had previously owned. I picked up this little girl and man she was full of energy. I carried her to the nearby WMA and right off she was pointing wild birds. I wanted to be able to continue this line so I bred her to Scott Millers Champion Hirollins Talkin Smack. I kept one of Daisys pups and I think he is going to make a remarkable bird dog. So as Doc Holiday would say about this girl Shes a Daisy!

Congratulations on the VJP test scores;

Once in a blue moon!

On this day of quail hunting myself and two close friends witnessed what we saw as an extraordinary event as it unfolded in front of our very eyes. To say the least we were astonished. Let me explain. My solid white setter named Snow went missing for a few minutes as we were hunting. My friend motioned for me to come look down in the 20’ deep creek bordering my ten acre training field. Snow was standing in 6 inches of water pointing a quail that was making its way up the steep embankment. Us three stood shoulder to shoulder as my little female pointer Queenie had entered the creek as well. Two of us readied for a good shot as the bird took flight and we both hit the bird as it fell some thirty yards in the field bottom on the opposite side from us. In doing so Queenie climbed up the slope and picked up our prize quail. After making two big circles in the field as we whistled and called to her, she turned to our direction entering the creek down one side and up to our side with a magnificent retrieve to hand. All the while I had expected her to drop the bird, but she proved me wrong. She had not been the best at retrieving in her training prior to that day. It took us a while to get back to hunting as we all felt that nothing better would be achieved on that day at least. Never underestimate the drive of a bird dog when they want to please those walking behind. Oh, and by the way Snow was still pointed as all of this unfolded. We completely forgot about the other bird he had pointed so he just came up to us afterwards as to say(what about my bird?).
