Maggie wins her debut as a broke dog.

Pine Straw Magpie made an impressive showing in her first broke dog stake, the Amateur Gun Dog of the East Tennessee Pointing Dog Association's spring trial. She ran huge, and forward with two very well mannered finds. Her second find was on a covey of running birds that she handled with perfect manners. At one point, one of the judges told me "Your dog is 7 tenths of a mile straight out there on the edge." This was a 3 point major win for Maggie. We were very happy with her and are excited to see what next year will bring.
