For the upland hunters out there,

[Rustic-Fisher]

Good day today as the pup got his first pheasants

Hope to hunt all next week and also try and squeeze some river time in.

Anyone else been out?

That's a real beauty of a pup. Tell us about him (her). How old? Did you do the training yourself? Were you pleased with the breeder you bought the dog from? Why'd you choose a GSP?

Pup is seven months old and was brought up from the States. I could not have asked for a better breeder after being burned last year by one doing all the training myself with the help of some buddys that hunt GSPs and a healthy population of wild birds 2 min from home.

As for picking that breed, I needed a dog that was high strong and full of energy and willing to go all day, ease of training, and an all round versatile dog that preformed well in a variety conditions. The GSP being the meat and potatoes of the pointy breeds I choose it.

Nice birds. Looks like you spend some time in the gym too.

Went out a few weekends ago for some partridge, we flushed a few but didn't get any shots. Of course on the way out we saw half a dozen sitting on the road.

Yep, been there before. I swear they do that on purpose!
