Last Day of the Shoot.

This season Gary and Bronte have been working on a different and much bigger shoot than the one we have worked together over the last few seasons. For the first time ever Gary shot over his own (well my) dog and she picked up for him and several other guns. Gary said she worked like a trooper. I am so proud of them both but especially Gary who up until a couple of years ago had not worked an HPR.

Hopefully next season Gary will be working Flash. Flash will be the first GWP that Gary has trained, hitherto I have trained our dogs but since moving to Much Wenlock and being invited to join our local shoot, Gary has been truly bitten by the bug and has desired a dog to train and work himself. It was lovely to come home this evening and find Bronte curled up in front of the fire in the lounge - just where she deserves to be after such a busy day. Can't imagine for one minute though that she will let Gary leave her behind next year...
