    A bit sad perhaps, but also pretty satisfying to see a dog live a happy and successful life.

    Poor old girl. Maybe slow down a bit or make your trips a bit shorter if you can. I know the feeling, I can still work anyone at work under the table, but takes me days to recover now.
    As long as she is still enjoying herself that's the main thing. Not good when you see their mind is willing but the body can't keep up.

    Have used it with all my dogs in their later years.

    lol looks like a high class dog with his nose in the air
    He doesn't look overly impressed being made to sit while you take his picture.

    Nice classic looking rifle you've got there

    We are considering getting ourselves a dog. We are thinking about a German or English pointer. Would appreciate any advice any input or advice about these breeds. We do not live on a rural property and I am a little concerned about the pooch not getting enough exercise but there's plenty of parks close by and we do spend as much time as possible out bush. Also not to up on how to train one of these for hunting. It would not be left home alone as the wife could take it with her during week days which leads to my next question... how are they with other dogs?
    Help....
