Offered to take a turn pulling. They said I was too slow 😂

Who else has a team that gives it all they got?

It’s not only important to keep your dogs tuned up in the off season. We got some target practice in after the club meeting with the new Claycopter Surface to Air. No other thrower simulates a flushing bird better. Oh and the glow in the dark targets are awesome too.

Scout gets picked up tomorrow after being with CoveyDog Kennels for the last month. With her age when her owner dropped her off the goal was to be able to get to her on point before she flushed the bird and have her gun intro done. She is well past that. You can say its the breed or the bloodline or whatever you want to say causes some dogs to learn faster than others. All I know is these dog are fun to work with.

Pointing and Backing on Pigeons

Backing practice.
It doesn’t hurt anything to let the dog you usually use as the pointer for backing training to back once in a while either.

Throwback Thursday
This is my dad and I the first day I carried a real gun afield. Notice the matching“A” hats. Our little league team was the Astros and both our middle names are Alan. I remember thinking that was so cool. lol. My gun was a 20 gauge single shot New England Partner. If you were a kid and started with one of those guns and still enjoy shooting sports today you were just determined to push through no matter the obstacle. Those guns punished on both ends, but no matter how sore my shoulder or face got, I enjoyed every minute.
