Blake is a polite, gentle and loving dog. Cheryl's first experience with Blake had him show such a big run that it took some time to catch up to him while on horseback. He is a determined hunter who is very intense on the birds. He will always find and return your bird to you. He won his first puppy stake ever out of a field 10 dogs and his frist derby from a field of 27 dogs in the American Field. He is an honest hunter who will hold point from 2 feet to 2 hills away. He is currently furthering his training and competing in field trials in the mid-west.
