Whitney and Visa's first Dove hunt 09/02/02 With Dad looking over her shoulder.  Notice Visa is sitting waiting for the retrieve?  This is the proper way for a dog to hunt doves.  An awesome example of Visa's versatility.

Can you believe the two dogs pictured above are the same?  They are and they sure grow up fast!  Pictured above is Awesome's Diamond Captain Jack "Cappy".  On the left is Cappy when he turned a year old and on the right is when Cappy turned 8 weeks old and just got home.  Cappy and his Mommy are waiting for their next Awesome puppy -- Cappy's Dad is trying to make room in the bed for "the next Awesome Puppy."  Good LUCK!

Know how I'm always saying a GSP can be trained to do anything?  Well this echo's my words.  I don't recommend having chickens in the house or eating with your bird dogs but these are actually working GSPs sharing their dinner with the chickens.  Go ahead and say it "Now I've seen everything!"

These are some of the same GPS's that shared their meal with the chickens.  Now my dogs are calm mind you, but I doubt those chairs would be much of a determent, especially if there were chickens around!
