Gus: Gus is a good size Springer, weighing in at around 42 lbs.  He has a beautiful natural pattern, a perfect mouth, a driving flush, and is a great marker.  Gus handles to blinds on land and water, and is a very kind dog who loves his work.  Gus enjoys laying in your lap when he’s not hunting or chasing tennis balls.  Through his career, Gus has been our most consistent dog in field trials, and rarely misses a third series.  Gus struggled to earn a win which was holding him back from his Championship title.  In the winter of 2012, Gus had his day, almost being beat by his son, and earning his field championship with a first place placement at the Missouri English Springer Spaniel club field trial.  Gus will be competing in the 2013 with 2 of his offspring.
