Hunting dogs

Here's an old photo. My previous Lab at age three months. She was doing it all: pointing, flushing, retrieving. Opal was remarkable.

And one of her last birds at age ten. Cancer took her quickly six months later.

Not much to do this morning besides take pictures and watch the non fowl wildlife.

I think labs have some of the most expressive eyes of any dog breed. At least mine does.
 
Love this thread. Pleased to introduce Auggie, a French Brittany. He has a great nose for birds. Good temperament. Comes deer hunting, too. He’s named after Gus, our late Drahthaar, who was a genius on game, and the greatest dog I’ve ever had. He passed after 14 years and I miss him every day. Auggie has some of his spirit.
