RE: Chesapeake Bay Retriever
I don' t have, or necessarily want a chessie, but I like to tell this story to illustrate what they are capable of. Several years ago we were hunting a 20 acre private hole that was frozen over, except for where a little creek cut into it. The first duck that gets knocked down hits on the ice and slides like a hockey puck another 20 yards onto the ice. I am thinking....how are we gonna get that duck..... My buddy smiles and sends Deke, his hard charging chessie. This dog literally pounded his way through the ice and got that duck and a few more. Unbelieveable.
