      Ringo is now a one year old Llewellin Setter. Awesome bird dog! He was 
      pointing as a pup the day we got him home and has proven to be a great 
      hunter in the field. The puppy picture is day one of  
      training in March of 2006. The point is six months later in September. And 
      the pheasant is his first bird in November. All this at just 10 months 
      old!  |

      Well we didn't get 30, but 25 
      is not bad.  
      Riki is a four month old 
      German Shorthair, but she has been fetching birds for two weeks.  |

      (owned by Mike Finch) Belle is a four-year-old Brittany Spaniel out of 
      Count Kennels in Las Cuces, NM.  We originally had plans to hunt her in 
      West Texas, but due to a job transfer from Midland to Houston, all that 
      has changed.  Most of our hunting takes place near Columbus for quail and 
      pheasant.  She's pictured here with Blake, a senior at Clements, who is 
      playing varsity hockey and is headed for Texas Tech in the fall.  
      8/24/07 Note: Sadly, Belle died of liver disease on 8/18/07. Our 
      condolences to the Finch family.  |

        Three weeks ago, I had to put our 17 year old Chihuahua to sleep, which 
        was one of the hardest things to do to your longtime friend.  Of course 
        we felt nothing could take her place.   
         
        Our dear friends decided to help heal our grief. P-Nut Krenek and Janet 
        Russell, showed up unannounced with Buddy, a 5 week old Weimer,  and 
        though we will not forget our girl Taffy...   Buddy has sure helped heal 
        our broken hearts... and quite frankly totally stolen our hearts.

      My friends at Westside Sporting Grounds know 
      my lab, Haley. Big George Rice will tell anyone who asks that all of 
      Haley's bad habits came from her two-legged dummy owner/trainer, not her 
      inability.  Because I made many mistakes in training her myself, she's far 
      from a stylish retriever, but her heart and desire are unbelievable, and 
      she find's 'em when I'm lucky enough to splash 'em!  I consider myself 
      lucky to have such a good friend and hunting buddy.

      We 
      have 2 Brittanys, Freckles (the elder) and Bella (the baby). 
      Great natural hunters.  Without any training, they hold point, honor each other's points, 
      and retrieve ...almost all the way back! Guess they figure within 5 feet 
      is close enough.  After all, they want to get back to hunting! Very sweet breed.  Our most recent hunt resulted in a 
      great photo. 2nd is zoomed in:
