My daughter Hope and her friend were able to take a few grouse with Hope’s .410 pump. It is always great to get kids involved.

Bella/Smoke Litter Due October 2020 – Taking Deposits
Contact person on this litter is Nick (314)-954-5424 – Pocatello, ID
SIRE: HIDEAWAY’S WHITE SMOKE- Smoke is an accomplished bird hunter and field trial dog. This is a special stud dog who had proven himself time and again in front of AKC field trial judges. He has 9 official AKC placements to his name and multiple points in both Open (professional handler) and Amateur (non-pro handler) divisions. Smoke started doing well even when he was young. He was the 2013 Western All-Age Futurity 4th place and continued to impress judges throughout his career as a competitor. His was sired directly by NGDC FC/AFC San Dee Blazing Shane. His mother was FC/AFC Hideaway Red’s Bess Bet. However, most importantly, this dog not only has the genetics, but he has proven himself as a stellar competitor and hunter. The more recently in the line that the dogs have been proven, the best chance you can get a quality hunting dog.
DAM: KARAMOJO’S BELLATRIX LESTRANGE- Bella is a daughter of 3x Am Fld Ch 3x Ru GFC FC Stayley’s Orange Outlaw Mr. Cooper and Karamojo’s Dragon Tattoo JH (Stella). She has everything we look for in a quality hunting dog and producer: extreme bird drive, trainability, hard point, hard running/great pattern, among other traits. Bella is a product of our breeding program which is based on the above traits. We breed for hunting and competition and she fits the bill on both. And she is a sweetheart at home!
Pups will be located near Pocatello, Idaho.
If you have questions, or would like to put a deposit down, or would like to talk brits, call or text Nick at 314-954-5424.
A $200 deposit holds a pick.

Bella the Brittany Training Tune-Up
Pictured is Bella (Karamojo’s Bellatrix Lastrange) the Brittany on some training birds this summer. We like to run our dogs frequently to keep them tuned up, and because that is what they love to do most. She is pictured in Inkom, Idaho, near Pocatello, holding steady on a flushed pigeon.

Keep Your Dogs Watered and Cool
We expect our dogs to run hard and be athletes, but this puts a responsibility on dog handlers to keep dogs safe. Training and running dogs in the summer requires handlers to know their dogs and know when they need water or a cool down. Every dog is different, but it is always best to error on the side of caution with your dog’s safety. In the field, you can carry a collapsible dog bowl or pour water into your cupped hand (this way does waste more water). It is possible to use a water bottle directly into a dog’s mouth, but never pour water down a dog’s throat. You must squirt it into the inside of his cheek on the outside of his or her teeth, then let them swallow.
Also, the best way for a dog to cool down is for them to submerge his or her belly in water. Pictured is the Brittany bird dog Blixen (Karamojo’s Out of Africa Blixen) cooling off in an irrigation ditch during a summer training session.

Hope’s First Turkey!
My daughter, Hope, killed her first turkey this season. She is nine years old and used the same single shot .410 shotgun I for my first squirrel when I was nine. She has commented that her new favorite sport is no longer gymnastics…it is hunting.

DAM: Jeb N Ducks Orange Roughy Rouge – “Rouge” (4 AKC field trial placements)
OFA GOOD
Rouge is a stellar female with a build that we really like out here in the west. She is leggy and fast and has an incredibly hard point, a trait she passes to her pups. She was campaigned on the AKC field trial western circuit for a short period of time and was able to take four placements. She runs a very thorough pattern that is perfect for the foot hunter. She is a sweetheart, loves kids, adults and other dogs….but most of all she loves birds!
