3 AKC Junior Hunter Legs for hula!

Hula performed well at the AKC Hunt Tests sponsored by the Western South Dakota Bird Dog Club June 11 & 12, 2022.  The tests were held at the Dakota Honey Hole in New Underwood, Dakota.  The location was beautiful with lots of good cover.


AKC hunt tests are run in braces.  In Hula's first run, she was only interested in running around with her bracemate.  It's not unusual when a puppy is turned loose in a new place with a new buddy.  Her next three runs were stellar.  She held multiple steady points for 2 minutes or more while I beat the brush for the chukar, which were hunkered down tight due to the extreme heat.  I'm confident we'll have no trouble picking up the fourth leg we need for her Junior Hunter title.

Puppies

Running Off Leash

Safety First

Puppies must be allowed to set their own pace when they run and play.  Let them quit when they're tired.  Forced exercise can damage developing bone and tissue.

Running Off Leash

Safety First

At 4 and a half months old, Hula does not have a reliable recall.  The long line allows her some freedom to run while still being under control.

Running Off Leash

ZZ and Blanche love to run and chase each other on our 20 acres.  Conditioning is important for their physical and mental health and performance in the field and show ring.

Play

Swimming

Running Off Leash

The girls love to play.  They get rough and it pays to be heads up when they are body slamming each other.  Dogs need a chance to be dogs.

Water

Swimming

Swimming

I always carry water for the dogs.  They know how to drink from a squirt bottle so I don't have to carry a bowl.

Most Griffs love the water and swimming is great exercise, with or without the duck!  Make sure the water is safe.  When we boat or kayak with the dogs, they wear life jackets with handles.
