luv2safariBig Rock
Rocky is the gentlest of dogs, but he's hell on birds! I don't know what he loves most, a nose full of pheasant-chuckar-quail-grouse, or his favorite boy, my grandson.
These two roosters are Owen's first ever pheasant. We had perfect weather and scenting conditions. Rock's radar nose took him 100 yards, straight to several birds, then he held point and let us catch up. Owen is learning to shoot that Savage 220 single shot 20ga!
Rocky is always ready for a hug.

GatogordoHeartiest congratulations on a fine grandson and a great dog! The second image, in particular, would make a great Christmas card.

JonPBiebs,
It doesn't get better than that. I think we all would remember those moments with young hunters as the best moments. May you have many more.
