I took my pair of setters out chukar hunting today. Mother and daughter. The first few points were clunky but got better after a little training. The two figured out how to hunt together which is what I wanted today. No birds harmed in this training run.

On the board here. Still lots of standing corn around and I could hear roosters cackling from it the whole time I was hunting. It’ll get real good when that comes out.

Dewey is a French Brittany. Don’t let his looks fool you. He’s a little meth head. Wonderfully kind dog, though.

My daughrer wants one. I do too. Too many dogs at the house right now though

Last weekend was supposed to be grouse camp on a small tract of national Forest that usually holds a few birds and fewer people.

The pancreas has other ideas. 3 days in the hospital on a steady diet of saline and Dilaudid got me kicked loose Friday evening. Spent Saturday working up the nerve to eat solid food, and then took the dog to a new cover Sunday for a few hours. Moved a couple doodles but it was dry as a popcorn fart & windy to beat all.

So instead of a nice nighttime shot of a wall tent, or a tired dog with a couple of pats, here's what the ER room of Munson looks like.



Giving it the week before hitting it all again. Greta has a bit of a hot spot on her wrist still so we're both batting about average considering the last few seasons.
