i wish i could make it out.
the last time I went to a hunt test was 10 years ago if not a bit longer. it was with the guys from kings kennel in northern ill.
they had some nice dogs back then.
I just lost my gsp last year. xitty car accident. he was a great dog. I hunted upland game birds, rabbit, ran him with my walker for coon. and bayed hogs with him. he was a hell of a gritty dog.
to see him on a hog was amazing. I think with more time under his collar he would put some catahula leopard dogs to shame.
but most of all he was a terrific pheasant dog. I will admit he lacked water sense.
the only reason I need beagles is because that's what my hunting buddy wants. these dogs are for him. I want one so we can run a pair together.
if you came up with a nice shorthair I might consider it.
6 months before my shorthair got killed I bought a lab. she is a nice dog but a bit soft for my likening. I was actually considering getting another pointer. but figured I would give her time to grow up first.
what's your e-mail or phone ???
I would like to talk more about your pointers if you have the time.
take care and thanks for the post.
Jon
