Here's Big Lense Bucky and I in a commercial.

Hey and that's one of the duck blinds I gave away earlier this year to an ifisher.

Did that blind get put to good use? What's the story on it?

Excellent Thread. I can almost smell wet dog mixed with duck blind and shotgun smoke.

Threemuch · 01-12-2008, 02:29 PM

Nice pics, all. Love them dogs. I have posted these before, but here is some more of my new gal, Lucy. She is 18 months now.

Yardwork, training:

But all work and no play makes Lucy a dull girl:

Lucy and her first band, on her 7th real retrieve. It took me four years to get this band, which was my first as well:

A bit of spatter:

Lucy with her first big goose:

Lucy and a mixed bag:

It hasn't been a great season for me in terms of number of birds, but it has been the most fun by far. Can you tell I am proud of my little dog?!?

Thanks. I got him down in Corvallis actually.

Don Fischer · 01-14-2008, 07:52 PM

Ok. I'm a snob. I can't imagine why anyone would want to hunt upland game with a lab. I also can't imagine why anyone would hunt ducks with anything other than a retriever. Those are some great looking Lab's! Maybe I should take up ducks again so I can justify another dog!

Just so ya know, I had labs once. My last one was out of Amtrack. Been awhile!

Quaka Wacka · 01-14-2008, 10:44 PM

This was from a pretty hard day of huntin. The ice wasn't quite thick enough for her to walk on, so it was get up... break through... get up... break through. Luckily it was just shallow enough for her to touch and get back up on top of the ice. She rerieved a limit of ducks that day, not to mention swimming/breaking ice behind the pod. It was the first day I had to lift her into the truck. Pretty good for a dog who was 10 at the time.

ORhunter · 01-15-2008, 07:25 AM

Don "the snob" fischer:

Maybe if ya got beyond that long tailed wonder dog and looked at a good GWP/DD or PP or Griff, you'd change your mind about a lab..... Ha ha ha...

Yo got competition in the snob dept.....

Don Fischer · 01-15-2008, 08:36 AM

Loked at a what?

Gottta love a guy with a sense of humor!

OK... Got the photo thing working Just like over at V-Dogs...

Not your ordinary WPG here..... Dang! Aint she sweet?

Pointin' a rooster in N. Dakota last November

Ugly dogs doin' what they do best.....

Don Fischer · 01-15-2008, 05:08 PM

It's sure nice to see guy's with less well known breeds actually use them. Your dog could use a haircut and a shave!

Sure look's a lot like a lot of wirehairs I've seen. whats the difference?

ORhunter · 01-15-2008, 05:40 PM

The German Wirehair Pointer/Deutsch Drahthaar , is comprised of four breeds but not equally. The PP/Pudelpointer, Deutsch Kurzhaar (GSP), Stichelhaar and the Wirehaired Pointing Griffon. Most of the influence is out of the Griffon and that's why they look so similar. They get their toughness from the PP, and the run comes from the DK. I don't think the Stichelhaar has much influence in the breed. Their natural rerieve is some more of the Griff influence and the love of water comes from both the PP and the WPG. Their desire to kill the neighbors cats, coons, 'yotes etc is from the Stichelhaar and WPG. And that's the history of the GWP in a nut shell.

And the ugly comes from the Griff, or does it come from the people who own a Griff. Ya know "they" say an owner looks like their dog.

But it's a good kinda ugly.

Ha. Yea I know. It's all atributed to jealously. I noticed the Griff holds their tail more level than high. A neat look, kinda like it.

ORhunter · 01-15-2008, 08:22 PM

And a high head when the wind is blowing hard over the CRP. Some of them don't have a whole lot of style or intensity but I guess that's probably common in all the pointing breeds. My other Griff isn't nearly as intense as the one in the photo. She's a west coast dog out of show lines and not near what the dog in the photo is.

Reel Knotty · 01-16-2008, 07:10 AM

Here is my yellow, Bilbo on with the take of the day. I am afraid I don't have a picture of him 'in action'. I am lucky to remember to bring shells some mornings, much less a camera

However, here is one of he and I pheasant hunting

Here is my wife's Chocolate, Ripley. His favorite game is pheasant hunting.

Antlershed · 01-16-2008, 09:00 AM

When Gunner's not trying to chase birds, he likes to do a little Sturgeon fishing...

ommedia · 01-17-2008, 10:15 AM

Here are my good friends girls riding topless on top of his pickup:

At nearly 25 mph, it is a challenge and a leap of faith to climb out on the hood of a pickup to get these shots. And the windchill...the photographer nearly froze to death getting these pics. These dogs will not even look at you when the wind is in their face.

Notice how the nostrils are vacuuming the countryside looking for one little crumb of scent.

All have their own color-coded combination of collars on to be easily identified in the woods.

We've taken over 50 bobcats this season already, with 6 weeks left to go. PM me for a web address to visit.

here kitty kitty.........

QH's Paw · 02-01-2008, 07:33 AM

Here's some pics of my boy Kodi. Duckboy has piles of pics of him.

Can you guess what this bird was doing when Kodi caught up with him?(there's a reason they call'em divers.)

Kodi's first hunt with his blind last season.

Here he is with a friends Goldeneye.

Here he is having fun between seasons.

billc_sbio · 02-01-2008, 10:12 AM

Here's a picture of my late Dancer on her last Goose Hunt.

I knew she was slowing down (although she wasn't sure of it, yet) so it was time to start training up her replacement. Here she is helping me with "see and do" training on Sparky here a 14 week old pup.

Sparky ended up being quite a bit smaller than I thought she'd be. I was a little concerned about how hunting such a small YLF would work out.

It didn't take long for her to prove that she could handle things pretty well. Here, she's back in the boat with a PAIR of Widgeon she retrieved off the water that were only feet apart from a double. (It may not look Field Trial "correct", but hey, why make another trip if you don't have to?!!)

She's tiny, but she gets the job done...here's another, with a nice Sprig.

What I really didn't know was HOW well she'd work out with big Geese. She'd retrieved numerous smaller valley birds, but I'd never hunted her on Honkers. This hunt answered it. Ha ha, the bird is almost as big as she is but she retrieved several including running down and catching a cripple that went into the next circle over.
