In finnish lapland there is only grouse and rockptarmigan. Other parts of Finland offer pheasants,hazel grouse,capercaillie,black grouse,quail. So we have (mean others in the downland) alot of game to choose from. We lappish folks just have less to hunt. But everything is wild game...
yes we do go in the beginning of September, before the season starts back home...But our own environment is best ´cause the season lasts for 6 months. In other parts of Finland the huntingseason is shorter.
sorry Petra, I was confused about this sentence "I don't think you put the autumn test report by my comment, but anyway thanks to enlighten me about the event." - but now I understand. Sometimes the communikation in another language and only by the internet gives some complications ;-) So now I'm glad that there aren't any bad feelings or worries between us.
To translate my german blog posts and texts - sorry, it will be a life-task for me ;-))) So I only write some short words about my activities here in that panel and colour it with some pictures.
I wish Waidmannsheil for your hunting on pheasants!
What happened next? He tried to bite me when I reached to take the duck. Wicked me, I stood on one of his front paws, he yelped and dropped the duck into my hand... we passed the test!
(this is all many years ago...I have not touched a GWP since!)
Oh dear, how I hate that kind of owner! Sounds like a bad injury if it is a deep hole - they can be very nasty and form dangerous abscesses.
My story was 20 years ago but I have not forgotten. I would have been quite happy had the dog had been disqualified - I could hear him CRUNCH the duck as well. The judges at the time seemed to consider this quite normal for a GWP. Maybe things have changed since...?
Good.
I just hope the GWP never does get to mate a bitch - just imagine if he tried it the same way... how embarrassing for the owner;-)))
Maybe stupid owners have stupid dogs???
majd küldök képet, csak még nem bírtam rendesen lefotózni, mert fényvisszaverős is, és akkorát villan a vaku, hogy a kutya nem látszik (sötét folt), ha meg leveszem a vakut, akkor semmi nem látszik :-) amúgy nagyon szekszi!

Thanks Petra,
I am very impressed by my boy:-)) especially considering how rarely I manage to do field training. I'd never have dreamt he could gain an 'excellent'! But the judges thought so, and admittedly Glen turn on the 'turbo' when faced with the italian english setter...
és Glen sokkal szebb élőben mint a képeken!!!! és gyönyörű feje van, ha úgy fotózódik, hogy nincs a feje tetején a füle figyelő állásban! :-) kicsit beleszerettem, na.

Szia Petra
Kellemes Karacsonyi unnepeket es Boldog Uj Evet!
Dušan
Thank you, Petra, for your kind comments:-)))
No, I still don't have a video camera but my husband Thomas got a new camera with quite a good video - just not enough capacity...
I've never been shooting with Glen as I don't hunt myself. But maybe one day we will get the chance.
Best wishes for 2009!

thanks for your comment. Yes, I can't complain about them, but Fokka has some more such 'little crimes' on her conscience.
