I've changed my mind about a setter. I'm going to get a Sussex spaniel and go on the Westminister show circuit. Between shows I figure with all the hunting blood the dog has, he'll do fine in those tall grass prairies across the plains. And maybe I can meet some new friends among the other show dog handlers, don't know much about those fellows.
See how fast I'm learning about breeds other than a pointer. I didn't even know there was such a critter as a Sussex spaniel. I figure they'll do well with the coyotes. Two years ago in Zortman, Montana, I was advised not to let the pointer run around outside at night because a big tom cougar had been hanging around.

Bruce,
Good thing you kept your Pitbull inside, Shortstop would have made short work of that cougar.

| Mr. Day, if you are looking for a pointer in the bent of a Labrador-Pit Bull cross, look at German Wirehairs. They point, trail and retrieve in water, and will give a cougar a run for his money. If my little Wirehair doesn't outlive me, I will have another to replace her. Of course, I don't know if you could live with the "Ugly Dog" nickname that Wirehairs have attained.

| Bill, this is more along the lines of what I am looking for. Something that is a good bird dog. Something that can handle a rough grouse ( Bonsas horridus). Attached Image (viewed 141 times):

How about one of these Ball snatching spaniels, If the Birdhunting thing doesn't work out at least you can work on your tennis game.

Heres a Picture of Shortstop hunting in Kansas, I think Bruce goes a little overboard with the Cactus and snake thing.

Bruce: I think I could make you a better set of teeth for that dog. We could sharpen some of the cusp on the teeth and put some stainess steel caps and maybe a couple of gold ones in the front and you could even have your jeweler place a couple of diamonds on the crowns. Man, what a show dog.
