It's been a little over a year since my Lab passed away. She was my first and to date only bird dog I've ever had. Have long wanted a wirehair but could swing having two dogs for a while and then the price of a pup too. Didn't want another dog so soon either or so I thought. We make plans and God laughs as the saying goes.
A buddy at work told me Thursday a guy he used to coon hunt with had a hound to give away and was wondering if my buddy knew if anyone who wanted one. He said he didn't, and the guy said he also had a shorthair/wirehair cross to give away too. He said he thought of me immediately. Well I tell my wife, she says jump on it. I love that woman.
Anyway meeting the guy tomorrow and getting him. I know they're not anything like a lab. It'll be a learning experience for us both. Pheasant season is just around the corner!
