Sportsmen Since 1968

Picking a puppy is no easy task

The author invested lots of time in learning tricks and techniques for choosing his new English setter pup. In the end, like a lot of satisfied dog owners, he mostly went with his gut.

If you are a small game hunter – upland birds, waterfowl, rabbits, maybe even squirrels – odds are good that you have (or at least want to have) a dog. Or dogs. It’s some of the most fun you can have outdoors. 
I like pointing dogs, personally. My first dog was a Lab; at the time I got him, I was heavy into waterfowl hunting. And who doesn’t like a Lab? But as I evolved as a sportsman, I gravitated toward upland birds and it was only natural to switch to a pointing dog.
