Belle turns 12 this November but still hunting--might not be able to go as long as a few years ago but she still has the drive to retrieve our ducks and geese in some freezing cold temps.
This is Lyla. She is breed to be a bird dog but I have her track all my deer. More than either one of those she is the best family dog you could hope for. Very protective of the kids and she will roll with what ever we want to do. She has endless energy in the field but loved her couch time. She is a wired hair pointing griffin, and as of now will be the only breed I will ever own again. Added bonus, no shedding!!!
