			Field bred springers don't get the recognition they deserve.  Having gunned Springer trials for years, and competed occasionally, I don't think there is a more versatile breed.  Many times we have gone thru a field which has been "cleaned" by other breeds, and have produced a lot of game.  What is the breeding of your pup?

			She's from Illinois, that's all I know off the top of my head.  I have her pedigree filed away somewhere.  What I can tell you though, is hunting over this springer you won't miss anything... birds, rodents, insects, undulates, microscopic organisms... all are rooted out, and flushed with great panache.

			I had one SPRNGER, and she was a great hunter and retriever! I loved her, and she did that "SPACE-STARE"too. I think they just are bred to always be aware, or it's the definition of "HUNTING"! But, your "pal" looks so beautiful...he's almost REGAL! Must be a KING!

			Dave:  I agree about the eyes of a hunting dog.  I also have seen Springers glean an area previously hunted.  Here are the eyes for a departed friend TAZ and current friend CHARLIE
