Billy Bob Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 Been busy training my proud puppy since I got her back in August of 2011 She hasn't been out on a real duck hunt but our season opens in less then 10 days now.......she's only a little over 1 year old and I know she will still need lots of REAL DUCK retrieving training...but she does have a GREAT start so far... Here's she sitting....waiting for the BANG BANG...I got one Tundra...go get it command. Then her swimming out to get it Her Swimming back with her "Wooden Duck" And finally Tundra enjoying her reward treat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lew Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 Good looking pup Bob, just curious though, is that a life jacket he's wearing ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke V. Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 Right on Billy Bob. She's a real beauty. I'm sure you will have a successful season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Bob Posted October 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 (edited) Good looking pup Bob, just curious though, is that a life jacket he's wearing ?? YES....it to give her added flotation and it had a built in chest protector on it....she really doesn't need the added flotation in the swamp...but definitely a good idea for the Niagara River in the second half of the season...

RangerGuy Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 (edited) Nice pup! You won't need to those treats once she gets a few real ducks How's she doin on running blinds? Your gonna love that vest man.. It's very tough! My Suzy launched herself out of the boat after a bird I drop and landed on a stick which I didn't find when checked the area out after setting up. If she didn't have this vest on we would have been rushing to the emerg... There isn't even a mark on the belly of the vest. She grunted when she landed that's the only way I knew she hit something. This vest is 5 years old and still looks like new! Edited October 18, 2012 by RangerGuy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I won't bother with that debate but such a nice looking dog deserves a name derived from beauty, not from something bloated and awkward looking. If that's what you were shooting for, "Pacer" is a nice name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
