I have had a busy month! Train, train, train....well and a lot of fun!
Last night Dad put a bell on my collar & an orange vest on me, he loaded up his shot gun, me & Mom into the truck and we went dove hunting. It was so cool! I didn't freak out with the shot gun going off. I did, however, stand behind Dad when he lifted the gun to shoot a 3rd time. Hey, a guy has got to be cautious. At least I didn't try to take off for the Cascades!
We are going to go Sage Grouse hunting in a week. Dad says that he thinks I will get excited when I can see the Thunder chicken fall from the sky and actually have a mark to go after. Dad calls sage grouse thunder chickens. Go figure. Maybe I'll get it when I see one?
Mom has decided that I am the only one going to the desert. She said that Jewel would be staying behind. I know to be quiet if they are working Jewel, but Jewel has not figured out how to be quiet if I am out working the field and Mom says that really takes the element of surprise out of the equation. So it looks like I get 5 days in the desert with Mom and Dad. The other reason, which I think is the bigger reason, is that there may be quite a few dogs in camp when all is said and done and keeping track of one of us is easier than two, plus Jewel is fearless.
Hopefully, Mom will take lots of pictures for me to share when we get back.
