A few years ago, I was driving in on Morris Baker's driveway when I saw a young setter that I recognized as Morris's puppy project. The pup was pointing very steady, but I didn't see anyone around. I got out of the truck to take the escapee back to his kennel. As I walked up on the point, five, yes five, grouse flushed. I'm not going to say that the pup held point, but I didn't care. I called the pup to the truck but he ran home on his own. Morris didn't seem surprised.
