Meet the Deke!

As some of you are aware, it's been a busy (and loud) 5 weeks around the house.  The puppies are now old enough and have left to other homes to brighten Christmas Days.  Except this little feller, he decided to crawl his way into our hearts and has found a permanent residence.  Over the winter the blog will turn more into a "Deke training update" blog as we mark his progress towards a finished duck dog.  He has great genes and great promise..... oh, and as long Sweets is still around, we'll still have plenty of fish porn to share (including a Christmas Day trip to the Green.... shhh, next post)



Training is now in session....


Sweets now has a new fishing partner...hmmm, that leaves me... in the dog house?


Deke has some pretty big shoes, er, paws to fill.  Boomer has been like no other.  Deke shows hope.


Interesting shots.  Notice the wing speculum changes color from blue....


.... to purple.  Same duck, except I recomposed the shot 3 feet to the left.  Ducks are cool...


A few random shots from our Thanksgiving weekend in Pavillion, Wyoming (population, 152)
