Russ, sounds like Maggie was some dog. I know that was a hard thing to do putting her down. I remember some time ago hunting with family and their dogs. We had one that was named "Wendy". She was some hunting dog. Like your "Maggie" she could find a pheasant in a parking lot. As she got older she wanted to hunt like she did when she was younger but her body just would not let her. We used her to train younger dogs and many times after a few hours we would have to take turns having to carry her out of the woods. To this day I compare dogs to her. They say you may hunt with many dogs in your life, but their is one that always stands out.
