Pennsylvania reader stories: Bird dog saves the day by finding a buck

The writer’s three-year-old black lab, Gunner, found his buck, an eight point that turned out to be his best archery deer ever. The dog wasn’t supposed to make the trip to the hunting cabin, but was a last-minute addition. (Photo by Michael Marenic)

Oct. 30 was my grandson’s 15th birthday, it was also one of my most wild days of emotion, but not because of my grandson’s birthday.
I was up at my cabin in West Field, Pa., for the week to try to fill my archery deer and bear tags. The first afternoon I arrived at my cabin, I hustled back to my stand to sit for the evening hunt. This was uneventful – I didn’t even see a tail. The next morning, I headed back to my stand on the back end of the property.
