Some pictures and background for Chet.
Chet lives in Minnesota. He has daily walks/runs in wild pheasant country (where the majority of these pictures come from). Chet lives with an older female LM that I am told loves to steal his points😂. Chet has a great off switch in the house where he loves to lounge on the couch. His weight stays steady around 63-65lbs and he stands 62cm at the shoulder.

Lotti also got a fun run for her last Southeast Michigan Navhda training day. The joy she carries when she runs can only bring a smile to your face.

Darla had a fun run at our last training day at Southeast Michigan Navhda. She covered this field fairly quickly. Her range is much tighter in the grouse woods but this shows a bit of how she works scent, at least on training birds. Bring on the King!!

Darla and Lotti had a great training weekend with us. Both dogs worked on all aspects of the NAVHDA Utility Test this weekend. They really don’t need an off switch when they have so much fun swimming and running through the fields.
