I am going to put up some pictures and a little text of my experience getting a gun dog, a German Shorthair Pointer. I went with my friend Don to pick up his Dam, Daisy, from her weekend of breeding with the Sire, Brett, this past Monday. I took my camera and got a few pics of Daisy and Brett while I was there.
Neither of them had ever been bred so they were a little inexperienced. Don certainly knows how to handle a dog. Wow, that was an educational trip to Statesville, NC. I'll just leave it at that since Don asked me not to give away any of his "trade secrets". Well okay...I will say that I did not shake hands with Don at the end of the day.
Don is the owner of Hunting Creek Retrievers. His labs are outstanding hunters, and I am hoping his first litter of GSP's is too.
