Figured we could get this year started. Our 16mo Pudelpointer is coming along nicely. This was his first actual hunt and first birds shot over him. (Been working him on homers.). Duke made nice retrieves including tracking down the crippled rooster. He showed his “puppy enthusiasm” early on with a couple flushes, but finished day steady until released on the rooster.
With the warmer temps and a young dog in his first season I decided to focus our efforts on woodcock around home. Probably one more week of chasing the doodles then it's time to turn to grouse.
