New Pup


Kris is the latest addition to the Indian Head pack. At twelve weeks she is currently being broke to the lead, crate trained, and taken on a lot of walks. She does a lot of riding-around in the truck with me, and is lucky enough to spend most of the weeknights in the house. Here she is showing some style on a quail wing tethered to the end of a fly rod. Those familiar with Delmar Smiths method will recognize the nylon rope tied to her collar, and how well it works in breaking a pup to the lead, and running with a check cord.

Jared - Is that a Smak puppy? Looks nice. I expect that there will be a rash of derbies next Fall...

Dale - I love a good pointer, and if I could find one as good as your young gyp, I'd be sorely tempted.
