    Would love one if I could justify one . Don't have enough high country chuckar and quail country . My gsp works well for all rounder , It would not be fair to have a straight bird dog for me as the bird hunting season is never long enough . In saying that I would love to have another dog on the hill while chasing birds , as one dog is never enough .
