Game Winner, our male pup, sired by Full Blast ex Springtime Showgirl got his competitive bird dog career off in fine fashion by placing 3rd in the Jan Zabericki Puppy Classic, held in western PA in early April, 2016. Thor Kain handled “Finn” to his first win. Born in May, “Finn” is a relatively young pup and was up against a strong field of horseback-bred pointers and setters. Exceptionally snappy and hard driving pup, “Finn” is the kind of dog our kennel has been focused on producing and campaigning. In Texas this winter, “Finn” really got his teeth cut on wild quail after a fall of being introduced to woodcock and grouse. On the last workout in TX, he pointed four covies in thirty minutes, each with straight up style. “Finn” was bred by Dave D’Hulster at his Springfield Kennel. This is the third mating of Full Blast to Springtime Showgirl and this mating has proven to be a real niche with pups from the previous litters winning the Grand National Grouse Puppy Classic in 2015 and 2016.
