An ATB Family Affair


Dayton, Maine was the place to be today for a gorgeous fall afternoon spent in the pheasants fields.  For ATB it truly was a family affair as Jack and his daughter Piper, and True with his father Gibson accompanied John and Sam for a total of 3 hens and 1 cock pheasant between them all.  Birdwork was good for all the dogs with John being especially pleased with the two pups, not quite a year old. True backed his 'uncle' Jack  who was solidly pointing a hen.  When shots were fired you could count on Jack for the retrieves.  Gibson had a solid point and when Sam went in  for the flush 2 hens went up.   All in all it was a great time for bird hunting among not only the dogs but also for John and Sam.  The weather could not have been more beautiful.   Congratulations especially to True and Piper on their first successful hunt.  Getting closer to our first pheasant feast being served up on the ATB dining room table~!  Hope everyone else is enjoying the wonderful Maine weather and especially those of you are fortunate enough to get into the woods with your dogs.  Take care and God Bless, John, Ann and ATB
