Never Spoil your Bird Dog!

[WYO300RUM]

Mine's 11…spoiled as can be, but given me enough hunts that she can enjoy her last few years!

An old girl. My Chesapeake will be 11 in August. Still hyper and full of pizz How old is she and what's her name ?

Hey Graintrader, you should hunt her as long as she can go. You just limit her hours. I have a 13 year old Brittany, she lives for Birds and cuddles. I plan on giving her both for as long as possible. When she can't go at all, then it'll be cuddles on the couch.

Where do you sit?

 

[Ricky C]

Hey C-130, there is another chair and sometimes they lay on me if I'm already there! It gets pretty full when the neighbors big golden visits.

Excellent. Hope you got lots of floor space and bean bags for the humans! As many have said, "it's a dogs life".

Nice warm soft rump pillow. A little fuzzy though.

Took my bird dog Cedar for her third training and first time actually having birds shot over her. She did a great job flushing and retrieving the birds, we even tossed one in the water and she went after it with no hesitation.

This screenshot was one of my favorites, she is at least 2 ft in the air jumping over the grass but is still watching the bird and only looked away for a split second to stick the landing before continuing to sprint after the bird.

We finally replaced our dog we had put down in the fall. I was just getting ready to buy another chocolate Lab and I found a Black Labradoodle an elderly (older than us) couple had and got hit with health issues. She was 5 1/2 mo old and we have had her a couple months now. She doesn't realize she is a working dog. Seems to have a good nose and is already spoiled.

Nice of you to help out the older couple by taking a big responsibility off their shoulders. She looks happy to be a part of your family!

Didn't take her long to find the couch! Good looking dog.
