Uncle Buck
I have had my dog Bo for about 6 months. He is one of Buck's dogs, but was with him 'til about 6 months due to some problems with the first buyers. This dog is phenomenal. At 6 months, he pointed 9 birds, 4 of them roosters and brought them to hand at 50 yards. He hunts well in the lower 48, loves the snow and the Ptarmigan here in Alaska, and now that we have melted the ice loves to swim (our water is not warm).
He loves to work for you, is great with other dogs and people, and the only downside is you will spend a lot of time explaining to people what kind of dog he is. Buck named him Bo because of a white spot on his chest, but his official name is Czheckmates C'est Bodacious Chickmagnet. I had to use a C as he is out of the C litter.
This is a great dog, I don't think you would have any regrets with them, and Buck is a very straightforward guy. He brought Bo down to KS to meet me, and hunted with us for a couple days. Enjoyed him and his dogs, and glad he felt comfortable with giving me Bo.
