It is interesting to see my instructions turn up again. The setter in the picture was Stoney, one of the best gun dogs I have ever owned. He was a true grouse dog and we normally took over 30 birds a year in addition to pheasants, huns and sharptails in Saskatchewan. Experience is the only thing that can make a true grouse dog. I still miss him terribly and think of him often.

I am also glad to see Tom posting again and in contact with PGCA members. Tom helped me with my Wirehair, Eva, when she was a pup. I lost her at 12 years, 2 months a few weeks ago. Tom and Jeff Mullican shot the first birds over her, while I handled the leads. I can't believe it has been that long.
