[QUOTE="Ricky C, post: 2010776, member: 109105"] Hey, As I stated in an earlier post, my Brittany Libby and I with three of my cousins went to ND for a week of bird hunting. Long trip on planes for Lib, Fairbanks Ak to Detroit on the way there and Minneapolis back home. She’s a great traveler though. We hunted public land or PLOTS land only. We had some pretty tough weather, three of the days we had snow, 15-25 mph winds and it was about 20 degrees colder than normal. The rest of the days just colder than normal and windy. For a dog that’s only hunted grouse and ptarmigan she did an awesome job on pheasants. She’s 9 and a half years old, she hunted hard, most of the days she hunted all day. It was a great trip, hanging out with my cousins that I don’t get to see that often, stopped and visited with a friend in WI and best of all watching Lib do her thing. She made a couple awesome retrieves on birds that were just winged, one of those birds glided a long way and hit the ground running. By the time we got to where the bird went down she wasn’t in sight, looked at my harming, she was over a hundred yards away. I went after her while my cousin looked around the area the bird went down in. I was about 40-50 yards away and I see her coming through the brush with a live bird. The other retrieve wasn’t that far, but I thought that bird was stone dead when I shot it. The cover there was pretty thick and she’s a small Brit, so when I got to where the bird went down and I didn’t see her I was a little surprised. A minute later I see her running like mad 50-60 yards ahead of me, then I see the bird try to fly, she snagged it and brought it back. Man, I love that dog! We all had a great trip and we’re starting to plan next years trip, we are thinking about hunting ND and SD next year Take Care[ATTACH type="full"]222374[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
