    Took the pup out for his 1st long line session this afternoon. Just wanted to get him used to his new "work" vest and long line combo. Then focus on him controlling his distance, and getting him a solid sit and stay in a few varying situations, calm, a heavy track and post action ( No shot, but being barked at by a hind.) Was a productive couple hours. But still lots to work on.

    1st time being barked at, unsure reaction cause he couldn't see or smell the deer.
    2nd time he was ground tracking straight in on one but couldn't pick its wind so wasn't until last second he spotted her, she barked, his hair stood up and he ran back to me growling. Lots of praise and food treats for his tracking effort, reassuring him its OK to settle him from growling and barking.

    Had to shoot a cow with broken leg. Shot home to grab the rifle, dog got all excited thinking we were going for a hunt. Told him he couldn't come with me and left him at home. Wife sent me this pic 10mins later.

    Pretty sure that translates as WTF.
    He nui to ngaromanga, he iti to putanga.

    You depart with mighty boasts, but you come back having done little.
    Sounds like a typical hunting trip !

    Aw the poor fella. I would have taken to the cow after I'd shot it to show him that he wasn't missing out on something

    Yeah he was rather upset. The big chunk of fresh beef seemed to cheer him up though

    Lilly, springer spaniel. Good bird dog but also handy for finding game animals, likes goats especially. Typical spaniel though, too much go for first hour or soName:  CCFB088A-FCB1-46CD-811B-38BF428175E4.jpeg

    Out with Scapa on a wee bush training session recently. Was focussed on training rather than hunting but took the rifle along just in case. Training is coming along nicely at almost 18 months old.
