Well we thought this newsletter went out last Monday... Apologies for the mailing snafu. We'll be back on track next week.
CAN FIELD TRIAL DOGS MAKE GOOD HUNTING DOGS?
Photo: Christina Power Photography
Do Field Trial and Hunt Test washouts make good hunting dogs? Even though this article from Sporting Classics Daily talks about spaniels, the author's viewpoint makes sense to us.
  
You can read more here.
RIP
Lanse with Sophie (AFC Candlewoods She's So Fine)
Retriever Results only goes back to 1995 so we are unable to completely capture Lanse Brown's and his dogs' performance in the field.

That said, here are some of the dogs he stood beside:
  • FC-AFC Eva Ethel Proby-Weber
  • FC-AFC Hi Cotton's at Wits End
  • AFC Candlewoods She's So Fine
  • FC-AFC World Famous Rosa Barks
  • AFC World Famous Emasculator Shemale
  • FC-AFC Tailwind's Augie B
  • FC-AFC Super Babe II
HUNTING NEWS WRAPUP
Here are links to articles we found interesting.
  • Habitat Quality: DU reports on research that
    Photo by Michaelfurtman.com
    shows that "habitat quantity and quality in migration and wintering areas may influence waterfowl breeding effort and success the following spring." You can read more here.
     
  • Quail: Amazing as it may seem
    Photo by David Swanson, Philly.com
    quail are surviving and thriving in South Jersey. The birds have been close to extinction, but the decline has begun to slowly reverse due to a three-year quail project to reintroduce the birds. You can read more here.

  • Goose Calling: Nobody pulls in every bunch of geese. DU interviewed four pros to learn more about ho to consistently close the deal. You can read more here.
