28.-30.10.2008 Hunting trip with setter boys

We had a nice hunting trip in Eastern Finland with our setter boys Leo and Jason. There are not so many birds nowadays in Finnish forests so our boys had to run a lot! But we did get some nice situations; we found black grouses and wood grouses, but we did not shoot them. We are hoping that next year these birds have litters to grow. Our trip last three days and we spend our nights in lean-tos.

20.9.2008 Maximus Winner Class 1st prize

Maximus got 1st prize in Winner Class, he got 71 points after working full time in Paalasmaa.

Maximus on osoittautunut nuoresta iästä huolimatta erittäin riistaviettiseksi. Ilman ultrapointin pantaa koiraa on turha laskea edes pihalle. Maximukselle ei ole ammuttu yhtään hirveä, joten kaikki halu haukkua hirveä tulee vieteistä.

Maximus 2yrs
