Wirehair pointer on chukar

I have been working with Kaiser, a big slick-coated male wirehair pointer, getting him steady to wing and shot. He is a great dog to work with, because of his intense drive on birds. His toughness, high energy and passion for game at times made things a challenge, but once his energy was harnessed, he was a pleasure to hunt with. These shots show him with a beautiful staunch point on a liberated chukar and the retrieve. This is a dog that as long as he can be provided enough daily exercise and mental stimulation, and regular experiences on wild birds, he will develop into a bird hunter’s dream dog.
