Title: Officially a Hunting Dog
Post by: Bookworm007 on September 21, 2017, 05:41:11 PM: My chocolate lab Belle retrieved her very first bird today! She was super proud of herself! All the time and training paid off beautifully!

I was slammed at work and didn't work our dog all off season and took her out cold for the youth hunt. Once the gun went off, she sat until released and ran out like it was just yesterday she had her last retrieve.

And thanks guys! Hopefully Y'All are having a good season too!!!
