Pete must have been drinking the same thing Prince Andrew was. It will make royalty roll in the hay with commoners. :nono:

Strange what "love" can do. I now run a taxi service about 3 or 4 times a week, picking Pete up before sundown after a visitation. They both come running up to me when I arrive and when I open up the box, they'll rub noses a couple of times and Pete goes into the box. Upon thinking it over, the August heat in the hay barn may have as much to do with the move as anything. She is reluctant to let anyone near the pups, but especially me, as every time I show up, I take Pete away.

They are venturing out of the den now for short walkarounds. The last pic is meeting Uncle Wally.

My gaffe. Of course I meant Prince Harry recently. But in the back of my mind I remembered Prince Andrew couldn't keep his clothes on either. Prince Charles, King Henry, etc., they all have the affliction that Pete had.

I like the zebra-striped pup.

So how goes the story.

Calvin, By 8 weeks all the pups had new homes; surprising for a bunch of mutts. I got one; named Beba, same as Pete Best and his wife named their first born. She is very bold and active and works the wing on a string pretty well; holding longer each time she finds she can't catch it. Hope she makes a decent Pointer, though I suspect she will be a little more "versitile". Some pics at 12 weeks follow.

Fred;
Great looking pup. Are you talking Pete Best the musician?

Fred Preston 11-11-2012 09:24 PM

Yes Daryl. When I was fishing around for a name for my first EP, I landed on Ringo (Starr) as he had a sort of goofy look. Pete (Beba's daddy) is Ringo's successor and, though out of order, is named for the Beatles original drummer.

I would have never, in a million years, taken you for a Beatles fan. You go Fred. Greatest group in R&R history. We gotta meet next year to chase some birds. I thought about you and Archie as I was passing through Ohio on my way to SD last month.
