I know you must have seen some dirty labs in your day, but Ruby’s condition by the end of our Fundy hunt yesterday was hilarious! After a face-plant she ended up looking like the phantom of the opera (first pic). One of her favourite pastimes during slow hunting is to pick up empty shell casings and carry them around. When I saw her sitting on the bank “smoking” a Kent 3.5” to pass the time I just had to get a pic – what a mess! We did get a goose, two teal and a mallard. We had tried for pheasant in the morning but the damp windless conditions were difficult for her. She put up a hen that held until she nipped its tail to get it in the air, then a rooster slightly out of range. Looking forward to some cooler weather!
Cheers,
