My new grouse dog

Thanks Destry. Those specklebellies will be waiting for us next September.

I guess I wasn't "raised right". Tom's Stoney was the first setter I hunted over who rode on the rear seat of a late model Mercedes Benz sedan. I remember that my Eva, at that time in history, rode in a crate in the rear of my Toyota 4-Runner. If Tom had not been a Parker guy, I may have been a bit suspicious of his training methods. I am sorry that Tom and I have not continued our time with our dogs. However, we did spend some time hunting semi-wild quail, out of season, where there were supposedly no birds, but there were birds. You can ask Tom for an explanation.
