Training day photographs

A couple of weeks ago we met with friends & dogs for a cold game training day.
We travelled north to Nottinghamshire a little place called Everton where a friend is part of a syndicate shoot ,he had been given permission to go onto part of the shoot due to the fact their season had finished .
We struck lucky weather wise in what turned out to be a very wet week,it was a glorious sunny day almost spring like apart from the 15mph n.e. wind which was freezing !
We were able to set some great testing retrieves with the varied cover on offer ,bracken woodland & ditches etc .All the dogs worked well & enthusiastically with Rossi making some first class retrieves from water ,Treacle picking long distance Pheasants with speed & style and even nine month old Jake was getting in on the action nicking a bird when we were not looking and he bought right into me when i called him good lad !




Another great shot was there too but not a gun to be seen ! he was using his camera instead today - Paul of Mallyfield Photography well he got some cracking shots of all the dogs ,the quality is second to none and the prices are so reasonable too.A good day out for all ,its a dogs life - regards  Pete.
