Michter’s Rock N’ Rye, Jared Specht’s son of Lilley Hill’s Secret Stash ex our Ch. Full Tilt, won the Nittany Valley Grouse Trial Club’s Open Derby on October 23, 2011. Riley, while still puppy eligible, has been running in derby competition throughout the fall grouse trial season in which he has won several times. Riley is a long-legged and classy pup who runs with his tail carried very high. He makes an impressive image when he flows through the woods in search of game. This win came on a warm day on a course with some heavy cover. Riley pushed through these areas with enthusiasm. When he was called back in the birdfield Riley was most impressive, standing tall and straight tailed. He was steady at the flush…..again impressive.
