Back twenty or so years ago when I used to pursue the Ruffed Grouse in the Blue Ridge mountains of Virginia I always wanted a pair of setters that were stanch to wing and shot as well as a Golden Retriever that would stay at heel until released to retrieve . Now the idea of time in training to get three dogs to work together in that capacity burns a circuit in my brain so to speak but that was what I wanted back then .
Now I'll be perfectly happy if my little Boykin will retrieve ducks and work on pen raised pheasents
