Purdey and Henry - the awesome twosome! No phessie is safe anymore

[Nickijem]

We went on our Christmas Shoot today and met Spudlet and Henry again. The dogs had a great time - they both certainly know their jobs! Henry has really taken to this beating lark - he knows exactly what to do It's just that they think they know their job better than us so tend to take themselves off on their own hunting line. The great thing is though, there is always someone else's dog behaving worse!

Some pics from the rather cold and foggy day

Come ON mum! I know there are phessies in there somewhere!!......

And at the end of the day, you just need a spot by the fire!.....

Lovely pictures

Currently in NI we're not allowed to shoot waterfowl (not that I partake it that, too cold and damp for my liking ) and in RoI we're not allowed to shoot at all. (We have permits for down south as well, there's good shooting down there)

Aww, look at the two little troopers

Henry obviously worked much harder this time as he was completely flaked out all night as well! He spent the entire evening on the sofa squishing my feet He says not to tell the other dogs though, as they will think he is a softie

Henry looks as if he is taking his job very seriously, you must be so proud of them both, lovely to see dogs doing what they were bred for.

Well they worked very hard I think! Especially along the stream - we definitely should have videoed that - no-one would believe how brilliantly they worked together, not running out of control AND coming back when they were told!
