Very successful sunday morning, took our 8 month old cocker spaniel for a walk this morning in the rain, came home with these ducks and geese that he retrieved for me, his very first go at retrieving. Very impressed. :

WOW I am very impressed not to mention jealous. I think your dog needs some very special attention for that good day.

wow..that was a great day and a long while back.
here he is on Friday
greater canada goose..big and fat it is too

Wow...you both done good mate. I think your spaniel had earned a nice feed of something special.

Elvis, I am always impressed with your hunting tales. You take a walk out the back door of your house and bring back more game than we do after driving for hours. Your pup is only 8 months old! You must be a good trainer, also. Congrats on a great first outing.

He was 8 mths old when I posted the first picture...4 years+ now
he has piss poor eyesight as has too much skin on his head ..like a char pee type almost and it flops down and obscures his eyes ..just aswell he has big heart and good nose
persisting down with rain again so the ducks will be out getting fat on earth worms again and ponds will be filling nicely

Ok, Vince, too much spare time on your hands? Resurrecting 4-year old posts!?!?

guilty your honor ....I had new photo of Nugget and thought I would put it on old thread showing his first retrieves.

Over the years I've had cockers,springers,labs,chessies,and even a couple stock dogs!My most memorable and productive hunts tho have always been from the spaniel families!Good dogs and faithful till the end!
