Remi


Here is a picture I took or Remi this past week. She is out of Belle and Baker's first litter and is a gorgeous pup. Belle and Baker have produced wonderful pups, with amazing looks, great temperment, and intelligence, drive, and point that is second to none. Belle is definately starting to show and its hard to believe that in a couple of weeks the pups will be on the ground!

2010 Fall South Dakota Pheasant Hunt

From Left to Right Belle, Gunner, and Remi boasting over their days work this fall on our South Dakota Pheasant hunt. My brother's inlaws live North of Pierre and have around 1000 acres of private ground in CRP
in one of the best hunting areas in the country. It was the first (won't be the last) time I joined him out there, and I will say that I have never seen so many wild birds in my life! We limited out both days and the dogs had fun! The got their fix of bird scent for the week, and had plenty of birds to retrieve! We definately used more shells than we shot birds, but when they are flying up by the 100's its hard to pick one out of the crowd!

Congratulations Raider and Grits

Congratulations to GMPR MH Grits of Black" Forest" and GMPR MHR MH Rik's Risky "Raider" on their nominations into the APLA (American Pointing Lab Association) Hall of Fame. Once in a great great while a special dog comes along that offers everything as far as looks, intelligence, point, drive, and companionship. Both Raider and Forest paved the way for many pointing labs, and are two of the more well known pointing lab lines throughout the country. Even though they have passed on, their legacy still continues and the pointing lab pups of today, have them to thank! If you look at the pedigrees of some of the more accomplished pointing lines, chances are you will find either Forest of Raider somewhere in the background. It is becuase of this that they were nominated to the highest honor that APLA has to offer. My female, Belle, has Both Forest and Raider in her pedigree making her lineage some of the more soubt after bloodlines around. Congratulations!!!
