After about a half hour, we headed back towards the release area, and in about fifteen minutes, the dog pointed four roosters, two of which flushed in heavy cover, allowing no shot, but the other two presented easy shots at around twenty yards. I did hear seven or eight other shots, and saw at least one other bird killed, but I was actually surprised that there weren't more hunters on a holiday.
Elkhunter, Is that a Griff that you are hunting with? Did you train it yourself. I am on a wait list for this coming June for a puppy. I would like to here more about where you acquired yours and any training tips when you have time. A PM would be good.

Drahthaar, but he has so much facial hair, that some people mistake him for a Griff. My pup came from Vom Slaney Vale, who I can't recommend highly enough. I know other people that have pups from the same female, and all have turned out to be excellent hunting dogs , and excellent house dogs. I belong to Prairie Vista NAVHDA and the club helped me a great deal with the training. Members of our club do have some excellent Griffs, but I don't know which breeders they came from.
