Re: SWEET!!! A new place to be!!!
Left you a reply on Wild Talk too, ***. I really appreciate the thought, but it's not my birthday. I'm not sure who told you that, but I've still got a couple months to go. However, I do feel older every day, so I guess the basic thought is still valid!!
Firedog: My golden hasn't hunted in about 3 years now, but I used to love watching his face as ducks flew over. I can still get him to watch for them if I ask "Are those ducks?". He wasn't a real animal on retrieves, my buddies Chessie in the picture always beat him to singles, so he kind of gave up, but he was still great to hunt with. Absolutely loved it to death, and he didn't break and whine like the Chessie did! Mellow is good. He's getting up there now, but I still get the urge every fall. I should get him out. I remember walking around with him looking for cripples. I would tell him where to look, and he would ignore me and look somewhere else. Used to really **** me off, but he was always right! Finally learned to watch and listen to the dog. Then I moved and quit hunting ducks, go figure. Hunting or not, he's still a hell of a dog, best I ever had.
