On july 14 I got up let Ruger(my Pointing lab) and Rudy(German shorthair pointer) out for the morning to strech before being kenneled for the day while I was at work,got a 10 minute shower got dressed and headed outside got there and both where gone. I had just got Ruger back from bootcamp and I was so sick when after 12 hours of running everywhere and didnt find them. I live out east of Gold Bar so they could have gone up or down river. If any of you have any info please call me at 206-920-4612

Dang Whitey... Hate to hear thing's like that... I know what dog's mean to their owner.....prayer's sent your way on finding them soon....please keep us posted.

Thanks for the prayer, I find it really strange nobody has seen not even 1 of these dogs. No one.. Strange stuff,I am sick.I have been to the shelters,posted every road they might show up. Talk to all of the animal control people.. Lets keep are fingers crossed.. Thanks to all of you for your thoughts..

You and your pets are in my preyers Whitey, I know how I would be feeling right now if I were in your shoes. Good luck with getting your bestest hunting buddies back.

I am searching craigslist right now! I must get them back. Thanks again,lets keep looking..
-
were they micro chipped whitey ?... if so... send notice's to all the vet's in your area
-
Ask anyone in your area that has female dog's.... a dog in heat can make other dog's do dumb stuff
-
Thats what I thought also Wayne, but I live in a pretty isolated area and no one has seen anything. There is no barking,howling nothing. i think somebody pick them up. But good advice thanks
-
Chin Up Whitey... I have a friend that lost his springer for over a week... one morning he just showed up on the back step
-
I forwarded your info to a friend who lives out by the nature trails----any luck yet? Happy
-
O.K the dogs have been seen up on the sultan basin. That tells me somebody pick them up and dropped them off. So put out the word they are up on the sultan basin road.We are getting there,lets keep looking. Thanks a bunch guys for your help and concerns.. Whitey

That actually good new's... Do you know of any law personal, that can keep an eye open in that area while their making their round's ?
-
that is some good news,I have talked to all the police departments,given them flyers,and talk to as many utilitiy guys,city workers you name it.. We are doing good I feel we are close to getting them back..
-
thieves suck. its one thing to swipe an object, and a whole nother thing to take an animal that misses you as much as you miss it.
friend, i wish you and your pals the best of luck.
-

Crap Whitey that's horrible news! I've been following this story and was hoping you would find them. Sorry for your loss.

I called and explained to the breeder and Rugers trainer Doug and Alice Burnett of Cooke Canyon,It was hard on them as well as Myself. We got to talking about this up and coming season and the plans I had for Ruger and Me, Doug said I have some started dogs if you are interested. He said for what kind of personality I have the started lab he didn't think would work,He said but I have a German wirehair pointer that would work. We talk a little about price and I was floored by his good will. So the "puppy breath thing" is what is needed, Not to mention this dog has already been through Doug's 2 month upland bird school and worked over on water retrieves. He said this dog is a great dog and He thought We would make a good team. So over to Cooke Canyon I go. Thanks again everybody..Whitey

Thats "Awesome....Awesome" new's Whitey.... make sure to post pic's.
You'll alway's have the memories, of your past 4 legged partner's.
We'll have to get together sometime with the dog's and do alittle hunting... I'll even let ya out shoot me...... which is acually a givin for anyone I hunt with.
-
Wayne on the point of getting a started dog, I was thinking I might be missing out on what I think is a very important part of the dogs life is the "bonding" We all do with are dogs when they are pups.I am kind of torn on this issue. Should We start another thread? What do you think?
-
Whitey... I love the puppy bonding stage's also, but I have had dog's that I've saved from either along side the road, and from the pound. All older dog's, and have had just as strong a bond as I've had from a puppy. On a side note... none of those dog's were my hunting partners, so don't know if that would have made a difference in the field. If it were me in your shoe's... I'd go spend a day with the dog... when it's time for you to leave... you'll know what's the right thing to do. Good Luck... I really hope this work's out for ya.
-
Sorry to hear about the news Derek!! I know how much you care for your dogs. Wounds will heal in time but memories will be there for as long as you live. I hope your new dog works out. Take care of yourself.
-
Dang Whitey, am very sorry to hear about your loss. Hopefully the wirehair will help absolve you and your family of some of the pain being felt at this point. Good luck, and sorry for your loss.

Sorry to hear about your dogs...that is really a tough one. Paul
