I would like to take....

[Helle]

a moment and brag about my dog.

At 9.5 years old he's still going strong.

We spent two days in cover like this going after grouse.

He put me onto or in the area of 17 birds of which I got to shoot at 5 of them. The problem with the cover though is it can be kinda tough to hit a crossing shot when you can't swing a shot gun, but man is it exhilarating.

I did manage to drop one, I think it matches my AD nicely.

Just look at how he watches that AD.

Good boy.

Brings a tear to my eye. Love a good dog story and you have a great dog enjoy him and you should be proud.

thats good stuff brutha.

He looks like a CHamp.

As my buddy tells me , the greys give him character.

Bet he could tell some tales.

Congrats on the kill and the companion

Awesome dog bro, tell him "good boy" from all of us, and throw a little something extra in his bowl tonight!

My dog was 18 and a half years old when he passed away.

My condolences, we never have enough time with them.

Bet he could tell some tales.

I would like to hear his spin as well, unless it's about his owners shooting ability.

Very close, wirehairs in my experience have a little more prey drive which can be interesting at times.

Enjoy every minute of it.:thumbup:

Thanks folks

Thanks for sharing the photos,

Great pics and a great Dog Helle :thumbup:

There's no wonder that they are called mans best friend.

I used to own a short heard GSP years ago, full of energy and mad keen on going out for a walk for rabbits with me.

It's an old pic and very discolored.
