1st day of horseback work






Well, today we ran off horseback. We took a bunch of young dogs.

Xena - Ran well, she had a few contacts but no points.

Mac - Ran well, had a find, that he stood broke until the shot, but after a couple young birds flushed it was too much and he chased briefly. He did back twice the last time he stood through the flush and shot.

Tanner - Ran well, multiple finds on sharptails, broke at the flush or shot. Backed twice - Both Mac and Tanner I am very confident will be broke by the end of the summer

Lola - 2 finds - ran well, big at times. Broke at the flush on all birds. But, she is doing well.

Rita - Ran great, had a non productive - I saw some pheasants running up ahead of the dogs, but neither dog got them pinned.

Yesterday, we ran the trial dogs

Knikki - Beautiful race, broke finds on pheasants

Dolly - Beautiful race, application was a bit immature. 3 finds on pheasants, broke at flush.

Cullen - 2 beautiful finds, a well applied shooting dog race.

Dot - One beautiful find, stood broke, great race - almost too big. She bobbled another find and was corrected.

Chewy - 2 broke finds - big race.

Tucker - Beautiful race - one stop to flush.

Tech - Huge race - one find - broke at the flush - Getting better

Buck - Beautiful well applied AA race with two broke finds.
