April 3, 2003 and Tide is growing like a weed.
April 6, 2003 Tide is really more playful than this picture shows.
April 20, 2003 Tide likes to play in the water.
April 20, 2003 Tide found a "toy" on our walk. I need to teach him
that my
favorite brand is Henry Weinhard's. I will work on that. That is a flower petal
on his nose. Tide doesn't stay very clean on our walks.
April 26, 2003 Tidy doing a little fetch practice. No fancy finishes yet.

May 7, 2003 Tide is happy to go for a walk. Growing like a weed.
June 22, 2003 Bart and Tide. Tide is almost as big as poppa Bart.
Nov 8, 2003, opening day of pheasant season.
This was Tide's first pheasant hunt for real. Both Bart and Tide have flushed a
number of pheasants before the season and I would just point the old single shot
20 ga and say BANG.
Today we went to the goat ranch and at the south end ditch, covered with
stick-tights and berry bushes, Bart & Tide jumped a rooster. He flew across
the ditch and I nailed him with my old Win 101 20 ga and a load of #5 shot with
the Fiocchi shells. The rooster dumped on the far side of the ditch behind a row
of thick berry bushes. No way the dogs could go after him. Tide jumped in the
ditch after him, but couldn't get through the berry bushes and I called him off.
Tide crawled out of the ditch, with steep banks, and about this time the second
rooster took off. I am not sure if Bart jumped him, but I hit him as he was
crossing the ditch and he fell into a row of berry bushes that was not very
wide.
That's it! The day's hunt was over and it was only 8:25 am. We headed to a place
where we could cross the ditch and came back up the other side. When we got to
where the birds went down, I could see the second rooster in the top of the
berry bushes and it would be easy for me to reach. I took the dogs to where the
first rooster fell and told them "dead bird". They know the meaning of
that and really started looking for the bird. It only took about 1 minute and
Bart found it. He picked it up and Tide was after him to get the bird. Bart did
his "turn away" dance and brought the rooster to me.
We kind of wore out the rooster, throwing it for Tide to fetch. This was Tide's
first taste of a real pheasant. He didn't want to pick it up at first and just
nuzzled it around on the ground. I finally did get him to pick it up. Got a lot
of training to do yet, since Tide is still just a puppy and has much to learn.
After 10 minutes or so with the first rooster, we went over and I got the other
rooster out of the berry bushes and we wore that one out too. By the way, these
were wild birds and not the pen raised variety I was hunting last year.
Here is a picture of Tide and his first Pheasant.
Another picture of Tide and pheasant #1.
Tide at 2 years. Tide is an excellent hunter and a great family dog.

I took Tide on a coyote hunt in the Sweetwater Mountains. See

If a dog were your teacher, you would learn stuff like: When loved ones come home, always run to greet them. |

Little SusieQ at 15 weeks is Tide's half sister. She is a darling and into
everything.
The Helders and their two young sons raised the puppies with a lot of
human contact.
They turned out to be very well socialized and happy to be with people.
SusieQ is going on our morning and evening 1.5 mile walks and can now keep up
with Bart and Tide.
She is already a part of the family and doing very well. She sure has the
Labrador appetite and is always hungry.
She is happy with a squeaky toy and brings them to me to play fetch. Fetch is
built in with Labs and she is already a fetch dog.
