Ran Kumpel as primary this weekend. Outstanding job but still has a Ston of puppy in him. Retrieves are almost perfect. Topped the weekend off with a tight holding rooster. He eyeballed the shot from the thick and his ultra excitement got him through 30yds of cattails in seconds. Coming back was a bit tough with a phez in his face. That little proud dog paraded circles around me with it so I let him carry til squirrel!

The little PIB has learned to let old Panz make the water trieves and he'll pick up doubles
 Then he'll proud pose as if he did the work!

Young fella learned today he can make a solid retrieve then squeeze in a quarter mile ADHD sprint before I get set up again. Wirehairs ain't meant for sittin but can suffer it like a pro

Very cool! Thanks for sharing!  Never been a bird hunter- photos like those make me want to give it a go!

Both dogs had a great weekend with huge numbers of birds and tight shooting.
