I doubt you'll have a 400 yard dog, given her breeding. Two hundred, maybe, but you can always reel her in a bit with training. Personally, I like a dog to range about 100 most of the time with an occasional foray out to 150 or so to hit a particular target. I've seen lots of folks trying to keep their pointing dogs in too close. Let 'em do their job and stay out of their way as much as possible. You have many enjoyable seasons ahead of you. The only problem is that they will pass too quickly. Good luck and keep us posted.
