It was a busy spring and summer with 7 Hunter’s Moon pups NAVHDA natural ability testing and prizing. 6 out of 7 were first time NAVHDA test handlers as well. We’re also happy to report the G Litter qualifies for a breeders award. Thanks to all the owners for training and testing their pups. Everyone have a great hunting season this fall.

It was a beautiful 60+ degree spring day in Michigan Sunday, and nothing better than running a couple dogs in the Michigan Amateur Hunting Dog Classic field trial. Only grouse and woodcock trial run for hunting dogs, so they don’t have to be fully broke through the flush like the traditional coverdog trials. Alder had 2 solid woodcock finds on his brace, and took 3rd place out of a field of 22 dogs entered. Very proud of our boy. 
March has been cold with a little too much snow to take the pups to our cabin, but we finally made it for a day trip. The pups thought the nice warm dry spot under a big white pine tree was a great place to play. Here’s a few short videos of the action.
The H litter has been enjoying the warmer weather and getting outside many times a day. Here’s 3 videos from the past few days.

The H litter turned 6 weeks old yesterday. The weather has started to warmed up and they finally made it outside this past weekend. Here’s a short video of them enjoying running around in the outdoor dog run.
The H litter turned 5 weeks today. Here’s some short videos from this past week. So far it’s been too cold and too much snow to let them outside. Looks like it’s going to warm up this coming weekend, so hopefully will have outdoor videos for 6 weeks old. Thanks for watching.
