Ken Willis ran him in some 5 ish I believe. And placed in all of them. To date at just 16 months he ran for 27 pup points this spring. He is a solid prospect, and a very talented young pup.

But the big noses prevailed again. Couple dandy pups. This one was a special day for me as it was a stake their mom "River" won as a pup. And for them to kick butt and get first and 2nd? Very cool. It was an emotional time to say the least.

We just have a few things to brag about. I will start with the oldest news. I came to know many great folks in Springer Spaniel field trial clubs, along with several others across the US.
Starting to train a new pup for trials in 2007, it was easy to see it is a fun, but time consuming affair. With the help from several new friends, I was able to run my new young project in AKC puppy stakes. We got started in the fall of 2008, missing the spring trials due to the age of my project.
That dog is Blue River I'm Dans boy, and he placed in almost every puppy stake he entered. He was my first taste of a trial dog and boy was it fun. Even though it was just puppy stakes, it felt like a National to a new comer. Every one, where ever I went, was so helpful and welcoming. I would highly recommend this sport to anyone.
Odie ran his way to sixth place in the nation in puppy stake points, and second in the mid west region. I thought that was pretty neat. Now I'm hooked.
More importantly, he is just an unbelievable hunting dog. He is a dog I wish everyone could hunt behind. Here is the few photos I remembered to take during his short puppy days.
Below is Odie, with all but one of his ribbons earned in 2008 puppy stakes.

Some 2011
Odie and I went out for a hunt today, 12-24-2011. He flushed 13 birds and trailed out a nice 100+ yard runner. Two were roosters. His hunter got one for him but missed his other retreive :). Guess we will just have to go again...
Odie below.
Working on our native prairie grass field in the back yard. The pond has water in it already, and we will have it seeded in shortly.
We added a nice pond with it.
A nice spot for the dogs and wildlife to cool off.
The field is now growing well and should look even more beautiful next year.
Right is Odie concentrating on a blind retrieve.
12/6/2010 Below is Odie all proud of a nice rooster we harvested together on a quick walk after work, gorgeous day!
Ladybug below, was all iced over from rooting under the snowy cattails on 12/5/2010. It was a great hunt. She put up around 30 birds that day along with these long tails. This time of year it is real nice to have a Springer that loves to work hard, and that is certainly her. It is hard to believe a dog can like hunting this much, you have to see it to believe it, it's something.
Below is River on a "wild" bird hunt near home, never had to drive any where, gotta love it. We went for about an hour walk and she found one hen and one rooster. It beat watching the end of the vikings game. 10-31-2010
Below is Ladybug after a "Wild Bird Hunt" on 10/30/2010. She found 2 hens and 1 Big old rooster. She did a great job, trailing him down a fence line for about a hundred yards, then followed him out in some flooded red willows. He flushed high and cackling like crazy which offered me a clean shot out over the willows. He dropped about 50 yards deep in the flooded willows, and Lady made a "great" "tough" retrieve out of the flooded jungle. What a great hunt. Those are the moments that you appreciate a quality gun dog and a true hunter. Both her and the bird were still wet for their photo moment. The weather was just gorgeous that day.
Here is Odie below enjoying a limit of "wild roosters" he flushed , I don't know who shot them though. This is the most important aspect of our dogs. "They must hunt"!
Below is River with a couple of her own a day later, just the two of us in the back yard.
Young Odie waiting patiently for his next command.
Below is the gang Odie, River, and Lady wondering, what they might have in their stockings at Christmas time. Odie was up all night trying to get a glimpse at Santa, he was a bit tired for his photo.
River was happy. We seen she was so fast in the field, that we decided to get her a fire truck of her own for Christmas. That way she could put the fire out in the field behind her when she runs.
Odie on the other hand was not so happy, all he got was a new place board, naughty boy.
Training:
Training By Odie and River
(Quote from Odie): "When you think your smarter then your bird dog, ask yourself, "Who cleans up after who" ?
We have access to many acres of beautiful training fields. One of which is right in our back yard. We train with different clubs across Minnesota and elsewhere. These training groups will help you obtain your goals of a quality gun dog. It is a fun and friendly atmosphere, with knowledgeable people. All of whom will welcome any new folks. Feel free to contact us, and we will help get you started in the right direction with your new pup or dog. At no cost to you.
Boarding:
Boarding, by Odie and River.
(Quote from River): "I can tell you that place board training is good for our obedience".
Well that’s it for now. You met the family, It being a new site and all, we don't have a ton of material up yet. Hope you enjoyed what we had.
