[@springerspanielful]

Cheers Richie..

[@paulcanevari5664]

Hi George. Excellent video. I can relate to your 'pain' regarding the loss of hunting habitat....same situation here in NE USA. I can also relate to your excitement regarding the pup...she's a keeper. Gives you a reason to hunt!

[@springerspanielful]

Absolutely, a reason to hunt..

[@paulbryan1094]

Great to see you have a pup again and she looks wonderful. Look forward to forthcoming videos

[@springerspanielful]

Stay tuned Paul..

[@tomcoffey74]

Brilliant George lovely to see you with another Irish setter ❤

[@springerspanielful]

Thanks Tom..

[@dehonhogan5093]

Marvellous video George, wonderful to see the passion, and inspiration to us all, ie the ones that don't have a dog and need to get back in business, your video's give me great heart, I'm a rough shooter like you of the same vintage, can't wait to see how the dog turns out, she's smashing.

[@springerspanielful]

Much appreciated, many thanks.

[@bobnail9352]

Nothing finer than having a gun dog for those long daily walks. Keeps us healthy and smiling! Have you ever thought of incubating game bird eggs to re stock the land and keep the game bird populations up? They do it with the fish and we do it hear in Canada, Excellent video and great to see a fine dog.

[@springerspanielful]

Thanks, many gun clubs run stocking programmes, however the lack of suitable habitat make it almost impossible for birds to survive.

[@paddywhack300]

Welcome back ,best of luck with her looks like a good prospect there.

[@patob4868]

As it should be George a proper hunting man like yourself should be out with your dog ,it's great to see and looking forward to seeing how rua progresses 👍👍

[@springerspanielful]

Good man Pat.

[@davidjackson-xg8hq]

Those fields are enormous, we don't really have fields or landscape llike that in Cork yet. Great to see you hunting again George

[@springerspanielful]

Everything is bigger in Tipperary..lol

[@terrr954]

I think that is brilliant glad to see you back at it. Never about numbers just enjoying the doing. I am Lurcher ferret man and season will be 20-30 rabbits where I am but it’s doesn’t matter. If I drove 8 hours there’s spots where they catch hundred in a day. But I am happy where I am. Looking forward to see how you progress

[@springerspanielful]

Many thanks Terry, much wisdom there.

[@noeloconnor9518]

Great so see you out with a dog again George and what a dog she is. Looks to be the makings of a brilliant gun dog like Lady was.. Looking forward to the videos ahead.. Best wishes

[@springerspanielful]

Cheers Noel.

[@Darryl792]

Nice dog for sure. I didn't have a bird dog for a long time and then about 3 years ago I got a Springer Spaniel. Best dog and it put the joy into hunting for me again!

[@springerspanielful]

Nothing like it..

[@garystout2022]

What a beauty George, best of luck with her, the beginning of greatness I suspect

[@springerspanielful]

[@keithcrackett1992]

What did you do with all the rest of them? You had a couple of lovely setters and a GWP??

[@springerspanielful]

They all went to working homes.

[@Tjk186]

Well done George ! ... a great decision, very happy for you 👍

[@springerspanielful]

Thank you too.

[@TadhgIrish]

Hi George. Congratulations on your new dog. I have an 8 month old red setter. Same size as yours. Need a hand on the recall though. We were out today and we met a load of small birds on the corn field. She was chasing crows snipe etc. mad to follow birds. But how do you do the recall. Any tips is most recommended. I have fired over her and like yours. No heed on the shots. They are beautiful dogs.

[@springerspanielful]

I'll make a vid on just that subject, stay tuned..

[@billymolloy5732]

Brilliant stuff George, that's going to be a fine dog

[@springerspanielful]

Has that appearance alright..

[@Max-fg2mo]

What an amazing dog John. Very jealous!

[@springerspanielful]

Thanks a million..

[@macrolly23]

Great to see George! keep up the good work

[@springerspanielful]

Thanks to you sir.

[@charlescarroll6955]

maybe its time to hop the pond and set up shop in new England. your talents would net a good living here

[@springerspanielful]

Couldn't leave the Emerald Isle though, appreciate the sentiment though..

[@itz_frank8473]

Great video. My 21 week old springer is the same. His hunt insist is mental, so strong it’s effecting my recall. All he wants to do is hunt and follow scent. Is there anyway around this? Haven’t got much choice but to train him in a grass field with rabbits/hares living in the hedges; so my control over him once I let him play is virtually nothing, which could be quite dangerous. Any advice?

[@springerspanielful]

Vid upcoming on just this subject, stay tuned..

[@billlewis9214]

I can see why you took her on what a Rocket, I no of some Setters who also retrieve do you do much retrieving with yours?

[@springerspanielful]

Some retrieve and others don't, and there are some who will retrieve sometimes and not others. And even those that will retrieve some birds and not others, go figure.

[@ret1975]

She looks just like my aria when I she was that age she her farther is from a working line from Ireland and her mother from one in England best dogs good luck

[@springerspanielful]

Thanks a million.

[@andycrossen2061]

She's perfect enjoy George

[@springerspanielful]

Appears to be, thanks Andy.
