Gotta love a stormy December day!

Just the old girl and I today out in the Fundy muck. Nice way to close off the 2011 season!

She put in a hard day!

Good looking pup! I wish my Yellow Lab would hunt but she's gun shy in a big way.

Is yours from a breeder in Nine mile river? Looks really similar to mine.

Great stuff!

I'm jealous!

Good hunting!... Sweet dog, I bet she worked hard and deserves the comfort you offer her. I can imagine what she's dreaming of.

Pretty pup! Sorry to hear about the gun shyness - that must be really frustrating.
Ruby comes from Don Bates' kennel in Dartmouth (www.doindogs.com).

When I say "Fundy Muck", I mean it... lol! The pic in my original post is after I use my pump-sprayer to get her clean enough for the car. Out on the marsh, she looks more like this...

Thats a very happy lab. Duck hunt'n with lots of mud. I highly commend you on bringing her home and giving her a nice warm dry place to sleep with a blanket. She is well deserving of it as you obviously appreciate.

Iam on my 4th lab. Mine are always treated in the same manner after the hunt with the very best comfort and food |I can give them. They have there own couch in the living room and rec room, from which they can watch the hunting channel.

Nothing but green (and possibly black), great way to end the season dreamwaters!

Finally, a chocolate worth taking afield...

Yep, 4 greenheads and a black duck - good eye!

Thanks to all for the kinds words. I just realized that it was Ruby's birthday that day - great way to celebrate!

Good to see the old girl is still going strong. Ruby would be the finest dog I have ever hunted over and I've enjoyed quite a few over the years.

Jaydog - If Ruby's winter coat were not so thick I'm pretty sure she'd be blushing... Yep, I remember you and the old lady each shooting your first rooster and mallard over Ruby like it was yesterday... She's a little slower and a lot smarter now. Unlike me - I'm just slower...
