Fenway has been on birds since he was 10 weeks old.  He has a natural ability, long nose and strong drive. 



Crosby - Our Golden Boy

January 1997  -  September 2009

I considered Crosby my first born because I had him before I had my 4 children. He was always by my side and was a fierce protector and partner in crime to all my children.  He served as a step stool when the kids couldn't reach something on the counter and he gladly cleaned their hands and faces after meals.  Though he was never formally trained to hunt, he loved all birds, mostly ducks. 

After two separate seizures, it was determined that he had pancreatic cancer.  He lived another year receiving daily steriods to control his insulin levels.  He was a true best friend to all members of my family and there will forever be a hole in our hearts.
