First hunt test for 2024 is in the books! What a great time with even better people! What an awesome weekend for our crew representing Big Marsh Retrievers. A lot of time and hard work goes into these weekends for us and the dogs. They came out and nailed it! Left to right, Olive 1 seasoned pass to receive her Hunting Retriever title (HR) and her first Finished pass on Sunday! Tink 2 started passes, this is a dog to keep your eyes on! Tink is our very own Big Marsh Retriever pup out of Belle x Knox litter! Kate 2 started passes and is one of the most well rounded dogs we have been around! Lady is from our first litter of Belle x Ammo pups. Lady came home with 2 finished passes! Big goals and big dreams all coming together! 8 for 8 on the weekend and it makes all of the hours and hard work worth every minute! Thanks Hoosier Creek Conservation and Retriever Association for the great weekend!

Hard to beat a morning in the duck woods with 2 young boys learning about duck hunting. Pretty sure Cooper and Camden had a good time.
Kate was on duty today and had a good morning of retrieving birds.
Belle got her work in yesterday and was on her game as well. She was along today if Kate needed any assistance.
