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! (l-r) Ray Cacchio, Karl Gunzer, Dean Reinke, Greg Blair and Terry Trzcinski.

HUNTING ROUNDUP | |
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." You can read more here. Tennessee National Wildlife Refuge

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.
