Great picture Bill.  As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words.

Dave;

Fantastic photo, such dog love and dog comfort evidence makes it much easier on my Dixie since my wife viewed this photo.

Thanks for the photo;  PTG Roger

Nothing looks warmer than a pile of English Setters.  I just wish I could get half as comfortable on the couch as my dogs do.

Bill - if we put your setters in the bow of an AuSable boat do you think we could get them to point some nice browns for us?

Jay,

Judy is staunch on all species of Trout,  our only problem is I have not broke her on Ducks and Geese.:D  This could be a problem. 

Pictures taken today, Trout season is not open yet, I could only watch.

That and "grassing-up" and AuSable boat.  I do have a little marsh boat that is hell on AuSable river mallards.  Seating is a little tight for two guys and there is no room for a dog, but it will put a quiet guy on a duck before they stop feeding.

An oil painting of my two littermates, Bridger and Elizabeth almost 12 years old.  You are not going to believe this ,but this was done from a photo of the Dogs on the front of a boat looking at a big bird.  It was sent to China by a friend and the cost was $475.00.   I had it copied on a digital scanner and had some made on canvis to give to friends.

Gentlemen,

I started this post to hoping to see all the Dogs that share your lives.  It has become obvious that not many of them live in a Kennel.

This is last summers haying crew! Trish would bring lunch, and the labs in the mule. You will notice the neckerchiefs, whick signifies the "Pooch Caboose" has just left, after grooming all four labs. These labs are groomed monthly, at the ranch, and couldn't survive a night outside. We are down to three, as "Suede" has passed over "Rainbow Bridge".  Stormy is the young chocolate female, "Silky" is the older black female, "Pinky" is the big male yellow. Lon

Fred years ago I picked one up for a friend in North Carolina.  It was one of the greatest Dogs ever.  Use to run rabbits that we hunted with our recurve bows.

Bill,  She came from NC; got her at our annual Bluetick Days hunt here in Ashalnd County for $100, last day of the event, the seller didn't want to take her back with him.  She's gone now , but was a great hound and a beautiful personality.  I don't competition hunt much, then only locally.  I don't care if my dogs are a little trashy as long as they only work something that will climb a tree.

Fred,

Molly use to sit on the edge of the pool, and if my friends kids started rough housing to much, jump in after them and drag them out.  The Dog would even retreave the shot bunnies.
