Hi All!!! if you know of someone looking for a dog I have a good one. Started Male available. Out of NAFC Grady x GRHRCH Sassy QAA. Jimmy is 9 months old through Force Fetch, T and Swim By. Running very basic white pole blinds on land. Not a wash out. I'm just moving a differnent directions and only want females for my breeding program. He still has a lot of puppy but shows promise. Gun conditioned and mostly white coat trained. Must go to a hunt test home or FT home. Message me if interested. Will be selective for the right future for him. Will give discount to proven Hunt Test home. Located in IL

Hi All I just caught the ANNOYING echo in the interview today. I exported a new version with the echo removed (mostly). Sorry about that! I wasn't able to get rid of all of it but got rid of most of it. We had a problem with the recording which cause a lot of little bugs I had to work out. Sorry for those that suffered through that echo.
