Pheasant tracks and traces are easy to spot in the snow.  The birds take cover in the marsh grasses and under the rows of conifers that run parallel to the marsh and the training field.  (Those large tracks in the last photo are snowshoes, not pheasant!) I think Winter is my favorite season living out here.  It was my least favorite when we lived closer to the cities! Let it snow!

The winter’s arrived in Minnesota and all three dogs are loving the snow.

Chev (just above) has become a dad a couple more times this fall.  Here are some of his recent offspring, whelped in Iowa to mama dog, Holly. I’m pretty sure all the pups from this litter are spoken for. Biff has the most recent info about Chev’s other breedings.  Give him a call at 612 382-3060 for info.
