Setters ruled today

Well, we got out bright and early and ran 15 dogs or 7 braces. It started out cool and got warm around 10 am and we called it a day.

Lucy and Hondo - Lucy was cautious but had a really nice broke find - and a decent race. Hondo ran well and had a derby broke find on a rooster pheasant.

Stubby and Syd - Wow, what a brace Syd ran a HUGE shooting dog race with one find and no steps. Stubby ran a big gun dog race with 3 broke finds and a stop to flush - both finished strong

Kane and Teeka - Both these dogs had bird work - Kane with a HELLUVA relocation on a running pheasant - Teeka backed Kane and briefly pointed 2 birds before she ripped them out - Kane had a nice broke find and a stop to flush

Kona and Ellie - These dogs were pretty handy - but Kona had a nice piece of broke dog work on pheasants

Brunie and Preston - Heckuva a ground race but were not able to have any bird work

Mac and Taz - Ran in the last brace heat of the day - no birds

Callie, Dolly and Ricky - Ran well - Dolly had one find, Callie had a beautiful race and Ricky was an exuberant puppy.

I was very pleased with Syd, Brunie, and Callie - these dogs had a great race and searched objectives - very nice to watch.
