They love those live birds!
Echo that Carp...you get what you put in..walk those fields...ALL YEAR...have a pal for life.
Mine loves the sound of a gun...wherever that may be...the field the water the grass...all LAb. ALL DAY.
Hope yours gets the same bug. If you keep it on live birds he will!

I got a pup from Mallard Lake about 10 years ago.  Good dog - he hunted really hard.  Unfortunately, he got hit by a car 2 years ago.

Enjoy the dog - my dog needed A LOT of exercise.  He will hunt his butt off for you, though.

Good looking pup. Like other's have said, you get what you put in. Mine is a little crazy at times and I will for sure put more in the next time I get a dog. She loves the site of ANY gun though, she will always go out for a bird or two, no problems at all. Have fun!

Here's a recent picture of Coal, he is 4 and a half months old and weighs a little over 50lbs.  I have been working on his obedience.

I love having dogs around me. I'll end up willing a dog or dogs to the kids. the worse part is dealing with the end of the road for them. I hate doing the last visit to the vet. I've had two dogs pass at home in their sleep one age and one a medical problem that was misdiagnosed, and we've had to do the last visit 3 times...that drive is a bitch let me tell ya.

Yes, that is a lovely pup and like the other fella said put time in and you will get benefits back that you never thought possible.
