Used to be a lot of them when I was a kid, but haven't seen any in years, in western Washington. I think there are still some on the east side of the state. Good lookin' dogs. [Reply]  [No Email]

I've heard they are around in small numbers in some parts of the state, but haven't hunted in years so don't know all the current situation. [Reply]  [No Email]

I got invited to Oklahama by a guy I met through a dog training board. He turned out to be my closest friend, even though we were 800-miles-plus apart. He lost his battle with bone cancer the day after Thanksgiving. I really miss him. Nice looking dogs. I lean toward English setters myself, but a good dog is a good dog. Larry [Reply]  [No Email]

Here in North Carolina bobwhites have just about died out in the past fifteen years or so. It has been at least five years since I have seen any at all around here. Number of factors involved, and the Dept. of Ag. is working with a bunch of farmers on the situation. Good looking dogs, Glad you had a fun day. [Reply]  [No Email]

Ag folks say biggest reason is loss of habitat coupled with wild hogs and fire ants. Miss hearing that bob-white call. [Reply]  [No Email]

Was excellent on singles once we busted up the covey. Not alot of quail or pheasants around like back then.NNothing better than watching your dog hunt. gobble---Ia [Reply]  [No Email]
