My 7 month old pup and I daydreaming about duck hunting on a scorching hot summer day. At this point she has read my mind and her face reflects our shared disappointment and she has yet to retrieve her first duck!

And its been a HOT one so far!!Yeah, I'm already tired of summer and it just started.
I have but just dry land so far. The water evolution starts this weekend!Great looking pup! Have you started training yet?
They can get pretty sketchy around water from the beginning. It really helped me when we were in water that had a very gradual slope, with lots of water that comes up around her belly, they seem much more comfortable there, when starting outWell the water training is going slower than I anticipated. She is getting close though, still hesitates when her feet come off the bottom but she has the willingness.
