Wallace and Ty write: Here is a picture of Destry. My son Ty and I took
him to Mendota duck hunting this past Saturday. We just wanted to give him
some experience being out in the field so we went for an afternoon shoot.
We didn't expect many if any shots at ducks and thought we would just let
him experience the sights, sounds and smells of being out in the field duck
hunting for the first time with few people around and a big pond all to
ourselves. We had a fun day with him training with a coot. Later in the day
we got a Gadwall drake and a Mallard hen. Destry was terrific. He was in
his element wading and swimming. He retrieved the Gadwall like he had been
doing it for years. I wing shot/crippled the Mallard hen and it fell into
some thick tules. He charged right into the tules and found the hen, brought
it back to my hand.
Thought you would enjoy hearing how well one of your pups is already doing
at only 7 months.
Destry is a litter brother to
