Started slow finished strong

We got out today on the prairie in search of the elusive sharp tail - We had 3 braces with limited bird work.

Sam and Jessie - Both ran a forward searching pattern - Jessie got birdy and self corrected and moved on once. Sam had no contacts

Primo and Charlie - Primo ran an intelligent and searching shooting dog race with no contacts. Charlie was short and needed encouragement to stay forward - no bird work.

Buddy and Trevor - Buddy ran a far flung all age race - I had to ride hard to keep him on course and go get him twice - he started responding very well late in the brace - good thing - because Lacy was well lathered by then. Trevor - Ran a very nice and big gun dog race - Daniel had to go get him a few times - neither dog had birds.

Stub and Lacy - Ran well - hunting and searching and Stub was rewarded with a find - he stood broke and it was fun - Lucy did not have a contact.

Hondo and Mali - Had the last brace and ran very nice races - Mali had 5 pieces of broke dog work - finds on sharp tail and pheasants. Hondo ran a great puppy race and had 3 finds - he knocked and chased and had a great time running up bunches of birds.
