Jeff Funke of Three Devils Kennel is my friend, breeder of my last three wires, avid chukar hunter, trainer and hunt test judge. His wisdom runs broad and deep, and we'll cover as much as we can in an hour. We'll talk training retrieves and steadiness, how genetics should guide a puppy purchase or breeding program, best conditioning activities for a bird dog, and of course, chukar hunting strategies and tactics. We'll even get a blow-by-blow of Jeff's recent Arizona Mearn's quail hunt.

"Road Trip" focuses on keeping your dog well-fed on long hunts with a few tricks to get him to eat, and listeners share the photos that define "why they hunt."
