My black lab was a fantastic waterfowl or upland bird hunting partner , when a friend of mine came out duck and goose hunting with us one morning after we set out my decoys the ducks and geese started moving up and down the river , we both knocked down 2 geese obviously 4 total .
I cast Buddy my wonder dog out to retrieve them which he did until he dropped the 3 rd goose in my hand suddenly his head snapped around towards the river and nodded he head as if he was counting 1.... 2....3.... then he looks me in the eye gives me a big sigh when he realized there was one more goose down stream from up and he takes off running down stream , I knew there were some islands down stream and had side channels .
About 30 minutes later here he comes running back to us with a dead goose ha ha
I still miss all my hunting dogs each were special in their own way !

Good ole Rocky?Dogs can be prejudiced…my dog was a setter terrier mix….his first friend, when he was small, was a four year old black lab.
…..all his life, whenever he saw a black lab, he went all wiggly waggly…..whenever he saw a shepherd, he wanted to fight.
YepGood ole Rocky?
Great dog!

That would be something! It was funny giving him a dollar bill and he'd go to the counter for a hotdog.i remember rocky from le spot, too bad he did not have a memoir of all his exploits! would be a helluva read.
A matching set?
