Progression Of My Pups

well...running behind on training these pups...but I do like the black ones best...and the black male pup has been in the woods 3 times...first time didn't do much and the second time he rolled out with the big dogs...today was his third time out and once I turned him out he rolled out with my 2 dogs and they went out of range on my receiver...it was raining and cold and I made the decision to follow friends and there dogs...had to turn back because the water got deeper...finally located the dogs and I couldn't get to them and the dogs had split up...long story short the black pup was bayed up with one of the dogs and he made the race...almost 5 hours...they had a big big boar bayed and I had to call them off...hated to do that but had to get out...the older dog swam the slough back and the pup jumped right in and swam back right behind him so I wasn't feeling the cold about that time...today he earned his name...his name is Smoke...the 2 Smokes before him wore some big shoes so time will tell...now that deer season is over I have to work with these pups...

will post some pics soon...
