Tinkerbell is a special dog.  She has the instincts any bird dog should have.  She love retrieving, swimming and of course pleasing us.  She left us for the summer (2006) at the age of 6 months to train on bird retrieving at Pintail Point on the eastern shore of Maryland.  She was there all summer and we would go to visit on the weekends.  Let me just say unbelievable.  If you have ever had a chance to watch these dogs at work retrieving foul you would be amazed.  She excelled at her training and is now ready to go on and try to earn her hunting titles.  (This is for my husband since I don't hunt)  Researching her heritage showed us she has the lineage of many famous hunting lines.  She has may relatives that are MH (master hunters) and Companion Champions.
