    This is a 'Re-Post' as i had deleted 2 photos from Photobucket..........Brace on my 1/8th acre property!!!!!!!

    Decided to try to flush them out with my trusty gundog Eddie (Miniature Schnauzer) got up early and filled with the ‘breakfast of champions’
    (Berocca and nurofen) we set off to despatch our unwary foe…..

    Eddie was primed and quickly went on point, I knew we were close and the old hairs on the back of my neck stood to attention like cold nipples!!!!!!

    Eddie went straight in for the flush, not a lot of hunting pressure on these inner city quail/animates toy hybrids so they were caught unaware's….

    The brightly coloured male stood out against the brush stick covered fence and was the first to feel the force of my 12g Mossberg 500 pump….

    The drab hen gained height but was silhouetted against the blue sky and soon met the same fate, luckily dropping my side of the fence to save me
    A climb and a possible testicular crush injury retrieve (phew!)…….Eddie was onto the male like Gerry Brownlee on a free buffet……

    So there we were, two birds for the pot and only 58 seconds on the clock….what a morning! Ive always considered the Miniature Schnauzer breed
    To be a underutilised gun dog breed, my suspicions where vindicated, who knows where Eddie will go next, kiwi aversion training is on the cards….






    After a clean up of the shottie, the birds and Eddies paws (mum doesn’t like mud on her grey carpet!!!!) another well deserved ‘brace’ was consumed..

    Top man Scouser. I had noticed the photo's had gone and frankly I felt it a little selfish to deprive aspiring hunters the opportunity to see a well trained dog working is some of the harshest water fowling environments. The non slip carpet on the mai mai floor is also a good tip along with the professionally installed retrieving door. Glad to see that Eddie waited to after the chores were done to have a Scotch. Basic rules to avoid a retriever going off line, bringing back a stick, or threatening to fight you as it's too cold outside.
