Kenny, good to hear from you, and to know that Miss Ruby is well and enjoying semi-retirement. I hope your new pup will have lots of birds in her life (a Gordon?), and that Ruby has the chance to mentor her.
Do you still make trips to Kansas for quail?
Ruby is a beauty still. I hope it's okay that I righted her photo. My best to you, Ruby and your new pup.
