Default RE: Bird dog opinions???

Woodsman, welcome to the sport of upland hunting.You will end uphookedafter your first successful hunt. I haven’t been in a tree stand in about 6 years.

I had 2 Brits when I was going up, and they were 2 of the best bird dogs I have ever seen. I just got a new English Pointer pup this summer, and I can tell that he is going to make a fine dog as well. I saw one person mention that it is important to get a good blood line. I agree with that. I don’t think it is the breed of dog, as much as it is in the bloodlines. When a dog has nothing but birds on his mind everyday, it makes for a fun day in the field. Good luck with your decision. I am sure whatever way you choose to go, you will end up happy.
