RETRIEVER HALL OF FAME INDUCTION
Two people and two dogs were inducted into the Bird Dog Foundation's Hall of Fame last week. You can read more about all the nominees here.

To be inducted both individuals and dogs should meet a number of criteria. Any member of the Field Trial community can nominate a person or dog. Nominations for the 2016 Retriever Hall of Fame are due in August.

Here are the 2015 inductees. Congratulations to all!

Purina is a big supporter of the Bird Dog Foundation. So this year it was particularly exciting that an English Springer Spaniel named FC-AFC Raintree's Sassy Lady, owned by Dean Reinke and Catherine Lewis was inducted as well.
Thank you Purina!

TOP DOG -- OBEDIENCE
Linda Brennan and Heart
US News reports that a Labrador Retriever named Heart and her owner/handler, Linda Brennan of Columbia, NJ has won the obedience portion of the 140th Westminster Kennel Club dog show. Susan Carpenter of Rhumbline Retrievers bred the winner.

A golden took third and another lab took fourth.

HUNTING ROUNDUP
Quail in Missouri
Photo by Michael Sugrue
Meet the Whites, the first family of quail in Missouri. Over the years, quail populations have dropped precipitously in parts of the country, but the White family is determined to support bobwhites by providing protective cover, open areas for feeding and resetting vegetation.

Field & Stream reports that the family is now working with the Missouri Department of Conservation and have worked together to "launch a quail research-and-restoration plan on public and private lands." The results are impressive with areas reporting three to five times more bobwhites.

You can read more here.

 

Best Guns Ever Made

Field & Stream has created a list of the "Best Guns Ever Made."

Guns were chosen based on their impact on the firearms industry, longevity, excellence and "general-horribleness-but-still-works-like-a-son-of-a-bitch."

Tennessee National Wildlife Refuge

Cooperative farms support wildlife refuge management in producing food for waterfowl and other wildlife.

HEALTH ROUNDUP
More on Hip Dysplasia
Vet Lonnie Davis has published an interesting article on the importance of proper positioning in a dog whose hips are being x-rayed for OFA. In it he shows how the same dog, positioned differently could receive a grade of mild or good dysplasia.
