As many of you know Tia died a couple months ago. still not over that but on we go. I needed a dog and started searching for a started lab, the interweb is a dangerous place. So i found this dog way out in South Dakota that was very well trained and at a price that locally i could not even get close to... so away i flew to SD, by the way its freaking cold there. I met up with the owner Paul Gum and we did a full work out with the dog. At this point i am expecting the dog to be just so so but OMG. Paul does a few 150 yard blinds and a couple tossed birds at about that same distance. Chip handles like a dream. Paul wants to go show me what he can do so we take a drive to his pasture with a pond. paul sends Chip on a 500 yard blind. At this point im blown away 17 months old and dog is just killing it. So i buy the dog and now have to figure out how to get it home. flying is a pain in the ass big time and cost 600 bucks so i hire https://www.facebook.com/houndhaulersllc/ to come get chip in SD and deliver him to me in socal. They were easy to deal with picked up chip and had him here in under two days.
so here is chip with what i hope is his only photo on here with out birds.
