It has been so long since I have updated this blog! The puppies are 6 1/2 months old now! They have been a tremendous amount of work. Most days its a labor of love. We are doing really well with most things. Beretta is a barker - Tundra is quiet. They are just under 60 pounds and I think Tundra is going to be taller than Beretta. They love to swim and love to retreive. We are looking forward to working with them next spring on their Jr Hunt titles, as we did with Tikka and Marshall this spring. Its a lot of work. Some days, I think - I would like to cut back on working and spend that time working with the dogs.... but ah, ha - dogs are an expensive hobby. Funny enough, its not so much the dogs, its everything that "comes" with the dogs, the new hunting camo, the new gun, the new decoys that is better than the last set! The travleing around to hunt tests, and dog shows, the new e collar, the new fence, the live ducks, the duck pen we want to build, the new dog doors, the extending the kennel runs the vectra and heart worm......... and to think my son will be 10 shortly and I can't imagine what he will add to the list! He wants a Polaris Razor! Doing all of our own training has been rewarding. Its definetly a slower process but I think the bond is much stronger.
Our computer died in the beginning of July - so I lost all my old emails and contact information!
