Aquaman I couldn't agree more about treating your dog as part of the family. Mine stay in the house year round and about the only time they're not with me is when I have to work. I take them everywhere some folks wonder if they ever get out of the rigs. Only problem is I always have to argue with Bill about who's going to drive. He a firm believer in move your feet lose your seat. He usally has to sit in back because his sister gets the front seat(after all she is female and gets her way). Kc I can almost bet that once you've got your own dog you'll never want to go hunting without them. Plus they can save you a lot of birds and a lot of leg work. Yesterday I smacked a goose that locked them big old wings up and just kep on gliding the foot race was on between Bill and Kate( she a little fast than Bill) but they each came back hanging on to the wings. That bird must have gone 500 yards or better before he hit the ground then he took of on a run. Glad it was them doing the chasing and not me.

CALL EM IN CLOSE AND SHOOT THEM IN THE EYES
