My new setter Jesse
My new year old started setter is doing better than I expected. The guy who trained her did a great job with her. She is not bumping birds and is holding her points. No breaking. All indications are that she will be a true grouse dog. I'm going to try to kill as many birds as I can over her this year to get her a bunch of experience. I took two with her this morning, two yesterday and three the day before. And she handles beautifully. I am very, very pleased. I'm going to send her to a trainer in the spring to work on her retrieving. Thats the only area that needs work. She picks up the bird but doesn't bring it back to me.
