Doggie ping!!
That is adorable. He is one smart doggie.
Don't blame him.
Friend of mine had a big yellow Lab named Goose. He was at a hunt test with Goose, and Goose missed the mark and started hunting around for the bird, got over near the bird boys. My friend hollered "DON'T LET HIM GET A DUCK!" but Goose nipped in behind the blind, grabbed a duck off the dryer, and ran back to the line. Friend yelled, "I told you not to let him get a duck!" Bird boy stuck his head out from behind the blind and yelled back, "He GROWLED at me!"
