Alleviating Boredom

We have been very busy remodeling a house that we're moving into and as a result, Artus has been very bored lately. I have been feeling bad about not doing much with him so today I took him with me to the farm and took him out to the fields. He had a nice point on a couple of doves (ignored a couple that flushed right next to him too). He also flushed several ducks and pointed them after they flew. It's pretty amazing to watch him learn to use his nose. I took some pics while we were out. It will be nice when we're all moved in and I can just walk outside and run him in the field where we live.

Shooting Clay Pigeons and Moving to the Farm

Just a short update this week. We have been working on cleaning and remodeling a house we're going to move into on a farm in Firth and haven't had lots of time to get Artus out on hikes. He's been learning to get along with the dogs on the farm and stay away from cows.

I went with some friends to shoot clay pigeons this morning and the boys came with me because Kaci was working. They're pretty tough kids because it was cold and windy but they would rather watch from the tailgate of a truck than sit in the Jeep. We had a great time and I didn't do too shabby shooting clay pigeons.

Here's some pics from today along with a video link of Artus playing with some of his chew toys at home.
