I could use a nice pheasant tail.



Jenny cost me a great hunting spot, 40 years ago. As I stopped to thank
the farm owner for permission to hunt and show him my birds, a great
squarking uproar started behind me. I turned to see Jenny just as she
caught one of the farmers "pet" peacocks by the tail!

I yelled "Here" just as the bird nearly lifted that little Golden off the
ground as it flew off to land on the roof of a barn. My wonderful little
bitch came, as called, but had a mouth absolutely stuffed full of fresh
Prince nymph materials.G The farmer's wife was outraged and we were
never invited back to hunt the place again :-(

You're a Golden man .... I wrote this many years ago and had it on a
retriever specialty web site I maintained until a few years ago .....
she was an exceptional bitch, far more so than I understood then ....
Hundreds of retrievers later, including a few Field Champions and many
Master Hunter titles, I'd give anything to have another one like her, now
..... any dog men around here might enjoy my story about her.
