Rick I’m glad to see you have taken on a setter. Any GBE fan should. Where is she out of?

Nothing better than your own dog, a good gun…in home coverts. Congratulations.

Fern is a DeCoverly setter. She is the fourth we’ve had. I’ve been very pleased with them over the years. She is much faster than any setter I’ve ever had (not necessarily a good thing but I’m always learning ) Got into some more woodcock today. I hope to get up to your area at the end of the month. And yes I am a huge GBE fan. I love to read and he speaks our language. I think I own all of his offerings.

Nothing better than an English setter on point. Imho. No offense to anyone and any other breed. I grew up with setters and they're just in my blood.

Thanks Andy, the name took a while. I always put a lot of thought into that. We picked this pup up during the past winter storm - which was named Fern. I didn't even know they named winter storms. Our daughter also lives in Ferndale, Michigan so it seemed like a fateful suggestion! I also love names that have to do with the foliage or otherwise nature inspired.
