The rifle has no will of its own it may be used for evil but there are more good men than evil men and evil will be corrected by good men with rifles.

I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

Had a German short hair I called sally, but my wife called her sue and it stuck. My current English setter’s are Sadie and Sage. My old one was Shea, best bird dog I ever hunted behind. Still breaks my heart she is gone. Eric

I understand your pain. I had one that has been gone for almost twenty years but I still keep his bell on the windowsill.

I live in GSP country. They're probably the most popular breed around here followed by English Setters and Brits. I have to travel ten hours to Pennsylvania to pick up this puppy. I don't want to put an eight week old pup on a plane. He'll be six months old about the time grouse/woodcock season opens. I'll get him out sniffing around to see how he responds.

Thank you guys for all of your suggestions. Plenty of good names in there to choose from.

You'll know when you bring him home. Dad named mine as soon as I walked in the door with her. Said she looked like a Polly and it stuck. Used to raise our own birds and it was a joy to watch her work. This is her with my daughter back in 1999. [Linked Image]

Call him "unknown" as that's what you get with a puppy.

Andy why I foster now. Test drive em before you buy em. Even littlermates end up with different personalities, traits, bla bla bla. Puppys are a total crap shoot. Good luck.

Alder, Becket, Blade, Darwin, or Rory are all good old English names and you could add Sir, Earl, Lord, or Master to the name to make a good "papered" name.


Life sure is tough when you don't learn from the mistakes of others.

[/quote Looks like a great hunting dog I had a great grand mother that had 11 children in her life time including 2sets of twins I did o know her but have heard some wonderful things abut her She must have been a strong person .Her name was Emma And I named my female Bn Spaniel Emmy She seems to like it all most as much as I do . Also my Emmy's sire was Elvis Blue As in Elvis Pressly So Emmy Lou rhymes with Elvis Blue If you have a favorite relative that was maybe in the military or public service was just a really good person it is a Way to remember them even after they are gone .

I met a couple guys who purchased pups from the same litter I got mine from. Three sibling dogs. This was about thirty years ago and we hunt birds together and remain friends to this day. One of those pups was a total dud. I'm bringing one of these guys home. Can't wait.
