Libby is progressing well.
She held point for a looong time while I moved to get this photo...
These are pen raised birds. |

Thanks guys.
I got her from an ad in the NC Agricultural Review. A bird hunter in Denton NC had a litter of pups. Mom is registered, Dad is not. Pups were $75.

Best $75 I have spent in years. The payback is priceless. She'll be 8 months old in a few weeks.
I hope to get her in the mountains this fall for Grouse. |

We've been having alot of rain lately, but we finally got out this afternoon.
Libby is not yet eight months old. She keeps amazing me at how well she holds her point. Plenty long enough for me to get these photos and more on the same point with no one to help me hold her steady.
Man I can't wait to get the BPS behind her and see what the 16 can do
I think we're heading for the mountains later in the year to see if grouse catches her interest, but I bet they're much harder to find than the pen raised quail |

That's awesome. I miss my brit something aweful. They're like labs, IMO....Most all are good, but once in a while, you get one that hits the ground speaking english and with a PhD in Bird. |
