Good Brittany available
 
I just caught up with an old friend that I used to breed Brits with. He just bought a 6 year old finished bitch and was thoroughly impressed with a male but didn't need a male. From what he told me an hour ago, the folks at Gunpowder Shooting preserve on Falls Rd. in northern Baltimore county are liquidating due to a divorce. This male does it all, is about 6 or 7 years old and the askance is around $700. That is a GIFT!!!
All the training is done. Somebody needs this dog!
(I am not associated with these people at all. Just hung up the phone an hour ago. Randy KNOWS Brittanies so this is a good dog.

Great story Larry. In addition to my two boys, I want to get my nephew hunting. He lives in Atlanta, neither of his parents hunt, but he is a great kid and I think would enjoy it.

Dean, Thats good of you. It means a lot to children to be involved. And maybe one day they will take us hunting.

That's something to hope for Calvin. But even more than that I hope the young ones carry it forward to future generations.

Dean, you are a lucky man an he is a very lucky kid :)

My son and older daughter hunt, but are mostly interested in deer, the younger daughter shoots some but never cared to hunt.

For now, the grandkids are a bit young yet, but they have become fond of the dogs, and I keep hoping there will be some insterest in shotguns and birds as they grow.

It won't be too long before I hope to take them to the club for training runs. I am all set for the first time they get to walk up a point :corn:

I would love to have one of those that I could give to Cam until he is old enough for his first parker.

Grampy (God I love that!:)) I'd just step up and get him a nice damascuss 16 on an 0 frame while you still can. you can keep it warm for him for the next 10 years or so then pass the torch.

Cobbie, I've got five or six 0-Frame Damascus sixteens. I even have one that I could shorten the stock to fit his small frame... hmmmm...

This is Ruby.....she is a Gordon setter from a great hunting family. She is 20 months old now and realy has become part of the pack...she loves to go to camp and has a big fall ahead. Ruby is a grouse dog first but will hunt ringnecks too. She hunts over parker shotguns only!!!...(just kidding) she is spoiled!! (not kidding) This is my first bird dog and I hope to get a english setter to keep her company next year...maybe a ryman setter. Thanks all SXS ohio.............................................. ..........................................
