Love my Pointers. You are right Reggie they really are the right dog for our conditions. Mearns quail season starts the first Friday in December and I am looking forward to getting the dogs out.
Next week I will get the dogs out and start scouting. This seems to be the best way to find out what kind of season we might have.
I usually use a mixture of Peroxide and Iodine to treat their feet. What do others use?
Lots of sharp rocks.
My Pointers generally run on the average 12 plus miles during an average 3 hour hunt. My two older dogs won’t be able to run like that this year. Probably their last season. I will hunt Missy and Bell less than an hour each every other day and will select areas that are a little more flat, as well as having some running water.
We have shot hundreds of wild birds with these two dogs and they have been great companions. Will really miss these girls when they are gone.
