Your hopes and dreams are wrapped up in that little ball of fur you just brought home. Training started the moment you gathered him up in your arms for the first time, and it never ends. It is a continuum of more and bigger distractions your dog must endure while executing a command, and “finished dog” is always a relative term.

My great friend Joe Prince, farmer and every-day-in-season quail hunter of Stony Creek, Virginia, died from a tractor accident I predicted in 1997. His brother, Dr. John S. Prince of Emporia, died of old age at 97 last month, having practiced as an Internist to age 90. They were alike as two peas in a pod, smart, hard working, opinionated. Both had served in WWII, Joe as an enlisted radar operator aboard troop transports to Europe, John as a Navy officer aboard a cruiser.

I love the saying ‘anything done in moderation shows a lack of interest’ because it’s true. My gun cabinet, my rod rack, my decoy rack and my kennels are all full. I’m immoderate, just like you.

Pointers are more adept at using their amazing nose to find birds & game. Once found, this breed will freeze, usually pointing the direction of game.
While most Retrieving breeds can be used to locate game, they excel at returning downed birds or wounded game to the hunter undamaged.
Flushing breeds are primarily close working dogs used to spring birds & game from cover.
In the past, hunters would carry several different breeds to the field with each serving a different role. There became a need for a dog capable of serving multiply roles in the field. The Versatile dogs are bred to find and point game, as well as track and retrieve on both land and water.
Scent hounds specialize in following a smell or scent. Most of these breeds have long, drooping ears. Most of these breeds have deep, booming voices and use them actively when running, and especially when following a scent trail.
