Had to say goodbye to a nice pup. She flew ot the other day and I found myself really missing this one. But she has a good home. Next time one will be mine... A short video to remember her by. But it does not say nearly what she was. Just a super nice kid.

Yup, Fcs, I feel your pain. It's never easy to give up a pup, and that one looks to be a very great bird dogs. We can't keep them all. Thats what Grandad and my father told me. I still don't get that. LOL
 
I think your trying to convert me!!!! Very nice pup! She will be a joy to own!!!! Seems very special ones do not come around very often. You are lucky to have found a secret. Good breeding helps. You have good dogs and then there are those that just blow you away. I do not know what your contracts say, but I would be sure to have some breeding rights with that little girl!!!:10sign:
 
No worry Bleu, doing it again next spring. She was not my favorite in the litter, they all were the same. But this one stuck around for 2 extra weeks and I really grew to love her. She would sleep on my neck and not move all night, just a nice house dog. Always wanted to be part of what your doing, very attentive, alert and afraid of nothing. I had my eye on 2 others, but let them go to a couple trial folks. This little shit just developed that extra little spark. She made me smile every day she was here. Still bummed I sold her. But next year, should give me the same result. I have a rule, and that is; I never, unless special circumstances, keep a pup from a first time litter. I keep track of them and evaluate what we did and see if it works good, great, ok, or NOT. And then take one next go. Which could bite ya if a parent is lost, but that's the risk I guess. Then I would definitely be getting in touch with a previous pup owner. I make sure a few don't get spay or nutted for a while just in case.There was 5 girls, and she was my 3rd favorite. Odie boy is 6, so it is getting time to have one from him. Actually 2 one from River coming up, and one of these next year.:thumbsup: drigs, what kind of dog ya getting?
 
Nice looking pup Fc.
 
Very nice looking pup!
 
cool, I had a few nice young dogs, and sold 2.
I kept one nice 1 year old too I have good hope for. Guess I am pretty fussy, LOL. Just started steadying her. She will see her first fall hunting too.:thumbsup: Hope its a good year for birds.
 
I can see how you have had a hard time letting that pup go.
NICE dog!

I'm not doom and gloom at all about the upcoming bird hunts.:thumbsup:
John knows where and how to find birds, me too. :cheers:
Glad to share.
 
me neither. I gots paaalenty of good places to go. I always have hens for training here too. We use them 2-3 times a week, so they get plenty of exposure before we hit the wild ones. Thanks for the offer, if I could ever get away, sounds like fun. I am dabeling in the Cocker world next weekend. Traded a River pup for a Cocker pup, LOL. We'll see how that goes.:D I'm a glutton for punishment I guess.
 
I know nothing about Cockers, sounds interesting.

I'm a Lab Guy with a 1 year old Britt, this is interesting.
4 year old Lab and a Britt to share my upcoming Fall adventures.
The Lab is where I want Her to be.:) The little Britt, I have a project.
VERY! Nice little dog.:cheers:
 
I know already, even though the hounds are qualified, I am not going to nationals. So that said, I am planning to go do a whole bunch more hunting. Got a buddy that has 1200 acers in ND prime near Pollock SD. I think it is 35 bucks a night to stay at the ranch house to ourselves. Then just walk out the door and shoot birds, literally. Maybe ya wanna join me for some youngster fun.:thumbsup:
 
Lets see a pic of that cocker Fc.
 
Here is her littermate. 12 weeks old with a nice water entry like papa,LOL. Good reports from this one. Cant wait till next year when I add one to my group. Cooker pic coming. Got her home. and she is a little terror.:D

This one is headed to pro trainer Gary Breightbarth in California. Hope she works out. I told her I will pick ya one you can win with. And she was it. The girl I liked the best.
