Just back....
What an incredible day!!! As things slowed down - and I THOUGHT we were walking to a pond to let my dog Brie (my French Brit) have a swim - I broke open my gun and answered my cell phone to Charlie Herzog and Bruce Day.. I mean - where we were walking, many dogs and hunters had just walked, so I *knew* nothing was there...??
Silly me....
I'm chatting with Bruce and Charlie - and Brie locks up.. HARD. 2 feet of the main road - short grass?? I'm on the phone....
I tell her to leave it - and she gives me "your a dumba$$, Dad" look - and doesn't move. She is "locked" and trembling..
OK - my dog is mostly smarter than me..??
I tell Charlie and Bruce "I'll be back" and while connected, place the phone on the ground...
I go kick around. Brie is still locked. For the life of me - I see NOTHING!!!
Then - a Fezzant comes up from out of thin air, buried DEEP in the grass - bursting up to the sky...
Dennis takes the shot....
And when I told Brie to "fetch it up" she retrieved it to hand - with a VERY SMUG look on her face....
She gets extra kibble tonight....
That was only one of the highlights to a very successful day - and since I don't want the Site Admin to kick me off the Forum for posting too much - I'll only tell you the rest of the day went as well....
