Looks like a pretty good day.

That was a heck of a good day finding quail. You have one of the best places to hunt quail you could ask for.

Maybe I can come out and meet you next season. Glad you had a good trip.

Yes, I got a new pup sired by Indy. He is not showing Indy's range but he looks like he will be a 250yrd dog at most. But we will see, he is only a year old.

Glad you are getting the dogs into birds.

Nice looking setter. Glad you got into some birds.

Nice job. Getting those young dogs out a much as you can that first season will pay off big next year. You will be surprised how much they improve from year one to two.

I generally like to give the dogs a bath after we go hunting. Gives you a chance to inspect the dog for injuries and get any awn off them that are on the surface.

The shirts are more like under armor. The black band is Velcro so that its pulled up wear he will not pee on it or get he foot caught in it. We have had an unusual number of injuries this season.

A little video at the start chasing a running hen, then some quail finds. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMHBCz4NUI4

Don't worry, You have a young dog that hasn't been exposed to hunting wild birds. She likely had no idea that she was looking for birds. When training it is pretty clear to them that there are birds to be found. Keep taking her, the light will come on at some point. Have fun.
