Back but Under the Weather

Hello, all - I just wanted to let everyone know we are back in one piece, and that all the dogs are missing their owners. I came back to a hot, humid day (84F) then the very next day had to work all morning day, in the pouring down and cold rain.

This has put me under the weather. I have a high fever (101F) and Daniel will have to meet you, as I don't want to get any sicker, until I am feeling better.

Very Sorry;

Keith Hickam Sr.

Field Trial stuff

Congratulations to the following dogs and owners

Blackhawks Dot - Bourke Harvey - 1st in Open All Age Derby
Fayeds Chewy - Fayed O Fayed - 2nd in Open All Age Derby

There were 7 dogs drawn for this wild bird stake on the prairies in Montana

Whiterock Mali - Chuck Wilson - 3rd in Open Shooting Dog. There were 18 dogs drawn for this stake.

Sunday, was also a good day for the dogs.

In the Open Derby (Shooting Dog). There were 8 starters in this stake.

1st Place was Celtiagh Magix Cullen -Teresa and Keith Hickam
3rd Place was Streeks Little Maggie - Donna Gibbons-Markey

These stakes are multiple course trials run on wild sharptail, huns and pheasants, every course has plenty of birds.

On a lighter note - Tucker waited to the last day to get broke - but he had 4 broke finds on wild pheasants on his last outing prior to coming with me to Montana for some more work - unfortunately we did not get into any more birds here.
