On Thursday Hattie got the call and we hunted the Milligan's Cove cover. In an hour she had 3 solid points and proved again that she will be the dog that all future dogs are compared to.
Not a good pic but this is a woodcock that walked back and forth in front of Hattie while she held a rock solid point.
Sunday was Emma's turn. We tried the Prince's cover first with her bumping a grouse and no woodcock found. Next we tried the Wopsy cover and I saw her bump a woodcock. Finally we went to the Rifle Range cover. After bumping a woodcock she went on point along the logging trail. She held while I took a pic and walked beside her and took another. Then I walked off the trail and flushed a woodcock that flew over my shoulder. Finally a solid point and some thing to smile about.

Beautiful Setter pictures, as usual. They are doing a lot in canine medicine now days. Have you looked into any of the new products for canine pain? You probably already know this, but you can give her a baby aspirin twice a day for the pain, as long as she's not on anything else. I hate to hear of her suffering pain, doing what she lives to do.
Wonderful pictures Rick. Thanks for sharing them.
