Hunting with Dad

I had a wonderful time hunting with my dad today. Is was so much fun going with him. I haven't been able to go for awhile and it felt really nice to be able to get out into nature with my dogs. We went out for the soul purpose to see how Hunter did hunting. He did really well. He listened and stayed close to us. He even got up a grouse. My dad shot it and then Hunter didn't know what to do with the bird. He found it but he wasn't sure how to bring it back. It was hilarious!! Squirt and Bailey were waiting patiently in the car. It was really funny how they knew what was going on and couldn't wait to get out and hunt and Hunter was clueless. He did enjoy it and now both he and Bailey are tuckered out. I think it was a promising day and a great one to spend with my dad. I did not shoot anything but my dad was able to get the grouse with Hunter and a partridge with Squirt...poor Bailey didn't get to retrieve a bird today. It was a GREAT day!! (and I am glad that I could get a little exercise too!)
