Say hello to my (new) little fren! I'm hostile and mobile once again. I grew up hunting on Toledo Bend and now I'm gonna see if my old haunts still produce like they used to and I have the ability to follow the birds. I'm already super-pumped about this coming season. DFM and Tech77 better watch out! I may set this thing up in front of their digs over on Claiborne and give them an early wake-up next seasondb 001.jpgdb 004.jpgdb 005.jpgdb 002.jpg

Well, we go this weekend to pick up the new pup. Fox Red female we're gonna call Darby, short for Darbonne. Cant wait to get her home and looking forward to new adventures this coming duck season.
went and checked the pups out two weekends ago to get a feel for how they were at 5 weeks. trainer i respect asked me how they acted. told him the red female was pretty submissive when you turned her over and rubbed her chest and he asked about duck wing. told him that the guys niece had one on a string and a stick and at point old red was tearing up that duck wing pulling it all over the place. the said, thats the one he'd pick for his pup. truth is, the wife and son had already made lil' red the no.1 pick anyway LOL
Late season, BIG mallard beast fillets marinated in soy and honey. Stuffed with softer and sweeter Boars Head cream cheese that I seasoned with duck livers, hearts and garlic sauteed in butter. Heck of a Superbowl meal coming up!duckdinner 001.jpgduckdinner 002.jpg

well, we picked her up yesterday morning and thus far have very few pictures of her where she's not an abolute blur, she's everywhere. lady we got her from said she might have been the smallest of the group but def the most bold and would chase duck wings all over the place. man, thats a great thing but could be interesting getting through the next few months. the force is strong with this one . .. . .
she is a cutie

Beautiful! That's a duck dog right there. She's built sturdy from the shoulders and has eyes that would make the wicked witch of the east go "Awww" Congrats! I've been toying with the idea of another duck dog as the one I have now is mostly belonging to my Pops but I'm not sure I have it in me to train another one and even though Catfish is gone a while now his memory still haunts me.

Darby hails from Lake Arthur. Mr. Authement had 9 in this litter, 7 males. when we picked up Darby he said he had sold all of them and the last went home that saturday afternoon. typically he said the males will just move slow but not with this group. Ross, gonna attach the pics of her dad and grandfather. grandfather has muscles on muscles.

I did know that. Me and Sooner both proudly claim to have never watched a Star Wars movie.
Is this the cast?
