Outdoors columnist John Schandelmeier recounts his adventures with a new hunting dog on the duck and moose openers in Unit 13.

However, a young pup who needed woods wisdom was the first priority. A good hunting companion is hard to find. Firstly, the dog needs to be bred right and then made. Dogs are not born finished. She got the picture quickly enough and soon would come to the truck with the door open. The morning almost-snow was dumping at 5 a.m. Sitka was called to the truck and to my surprise put her front foot on the rear floorboard. She was helped in and off we went.
Sitka seemed to like water well enough, but had never been swimming, nor had she been shot over. A walk to some local ponds found a group of pintails in a swamp that looked like they could be reached easily enough if the pup hesitated to retrieve. The ducks jumped and two dropped, both in the water. Sitka was not at all bothered by the shot.
Evidently that small flock of birds were the only ones in the valley as we saw nothing larger than a sparrow for the remainder of the walk. Teaching the pup the difference between our chickens and ptarmigan would have to wait for another day.
