we rescued a brittany

Ed, I have enjoyed reading the happiness and excitement in all your posts so far ... Good for you... That's what it's all about

Mills, what kind of dogs do you have? Are you a decoy collector, or do you carve? I married my wife 7 years ago, she lived with me for 3 years before that. She left her 2 dogs with her old roomate. I am allergic to most dogs. I got her a havanese dog right after she moved in, then another havanese about 3 years ago. Then our brittany, she used to have a doberman, and she walked that dog every day. She walks cash almost every day unless I do or I take him hunting. Karl, I guess I don't know how my posts are coming across. I just know the best thing that happened to me was getting remarried to a woman that likes dogs My whole life has changed for the better. It felt good again to not be able to sleep before opening day after a 40 year lay off. I was able to watch that brittany get better by the week, simply amazing. The breeder has helped me all along the way, and my buddy with 2 brittanies has taken me all over with cash helping him to find wild birds, he gave me an extra kennel he had for my truck, then a ramp because cash is so heavy. He would talk to me and tell me why his brittanies do certain things while we hunted so I would learn how to handle cash. I don't see my pictures, did they disappear? Or do you guys see them and I don't? Sorry I can barely turn on a computer so this is a minor miracle getting a picture on here.

I have one Brittany. I have a small collection of decoys, although I am not really a collector of them.

Ed, good for you and your wife. I like dog stories with a happy not sad ending

Scott, that is a handsome dog, mine sits in the front seat most of the time. The guys we got our dog from used to take him for car rides all the time. The breeder said he never saw a brittany remain that calm in a car seat and not kenneled. Now I know another hunting dog that rides well in a car seat Mills, I carved some in the 80's, John Dallas sent me pictures of some of the decoys he carved to hunt with, it was pretty amazing to see his stuff. Gary, the gun room I went to had vh or gh, the parker site showed the gh I think, but I couldnt find the vh. Was trying to get an idea of prices and what I can afford. I still feel a little lost with grades, just hoping to find a gun that shoots well, and if it doesn't work well, I can sell and get another and not lose a bunch of $$. Stephen, all our dogs have been good stories, even cash finding 4 porcupines and a skunk, its all a learning experience. My wifes doberman went through 5 homes and some abuse, before she got him. What she did with that dog was nothing short of amazing. The day I met him I will never forget, she thinks he had been abused by a man early on, he didnt trust men much. We had a good moment, then he climbed up on the couch with me and fell asleep. I think he realized that my wife maureen was being taken care of when she moved in with me. He just relaxed, I would of never let him go back except, my throat was swelling shut, and my eyes were all bloodshot. One of the worst allergic reactions I have had. She takes very good care of our dogs. Jeff, let me know when your heading up, I will give you my cell number to make sure we can get together. Thanks again for everyones help.
