Yes Jake is running for president of NAVHDA but that's not why he is here. When I found out his hunt testing track record, I had to get him on to give us the backstory. And it's a good story. The EB or Epagneul Breton is a lot of dog in a little package. Jake has shown the testing world that a good dog can do!!

Before we hit the microphone I asked Zach to walk my property to see what has happened in three the years since we logged our woods. I learned a lot! RGS/AWS is the shining star in the heavens we call home. Projects are popping up all over and the future is brite!!

I invited Will to come back on the show to get a deeper understanding of his past, current and future thoughts on what we all hold so dearly. And of course some fun stories of favorite places and the people that made them special.

Ronnie Cowan has the best job on campus, and maybe the most important one. He is the Outdoor Recreation Specialist at the University of Tennessee. We talk about his vision for the program, his new found love of waterfowl hunting, his young Labrador and his first non pointing, pointing dog..... We also cover wild hogs, bears and getting the quail back!

Terry Wilson was NAVHDA's Vice President. His recent passing left a hole that will be hard to fill. Personally I only knew him from a few conversations and judging with him once. His passion for the dogs and friends he made along the way, was evident in his actions, support and philanthropy.

I took a road trip to North Dakota with the dogs to see some friends and work the dogs. Then I dropped to South Dakota to lock up my plans for the fall. For the first time I feel like I am packed and ready to go, even though its 5 plus months away. This season will be another bumper year. Not because of the birds, but because of the friends I have made, and the ones I hope to meet
