The season is changing and even though my preferred season is warm and sunny my "boys" Jack and Joe love the Fall. It is time for the temperature to cool down so running around outside is much more fun. Here is Joey running through the deep grass and having a blast. Both our dogs love to run in the deep grass but their favorite is the corn field behind our house. They get in those rows of corn and fly! I can't figure it out but they sure enjoy spending time out there. Jack is the serious one and has found something in the field that has captured his attention.
Somehow they both know that it is Hunting Season and soon they will be out in the fields with their noses to the ground picking up the scent of pheasants. Their energy has changed along with the changing of the seasons. They are looking for the tell tale signs of hunting, like which socks are you putting on today and are you sure you want to wear those pants!
If you own a hunting dog you know what I mean. Somehow your dog just knows what season it is. My husband tries to sneak his gun and vest out to the truck and even though the dogs don't see him, they know what he is doing and follow him like a shadow. You can't turn around without tripping over one of them. You can almost see the smile on their faces (yes, dogs do smile) when you say "let's go", and you better get out of the way because nothing is going to stop them from getting to the truck.
Our dogs are German Wirehaired Pointers and they have a lot of energy. They are not the kind of dogs that sleep all day and you don't know that they are around, no these dogs are in your face spend time with me dogs. If you want a good hunting dog that loves to be part of a family and you have time to get them outside to run and play, then this is the dog for you. We love our GWP's, energy and all!
