My Aggi aka Maggie come icon-jaeger is early 15 and developed tumors around Christmas. She’s not in any pain yet, but her quality of life is getting poor so we are making the hard decision tomorrow. She had a full life and is snoring at the foot of my bed at the moment. She was a helluva a hunting dog.
One of my favorite hunts with her was a quail hunt with JKerr on his place in king county. She had made several solid points and we had harassed the 1st covey pretty good and headed down a draw to a brushy lake bottom where we busted a sow and piglets. She took off after them and a few moments later piglet squeals filled the atmosphere and here she came with with a piglet in her jaws. Ol Sow wasn’t having any of that and chased her down. She released the piglet 20 or 30 yards before she made it back to me.
I hope every day in heaven starts with a full strap of ducks and midday quail and it’s 15 covey days every day! Until I hunt with you in the great beyond.
And her last point on quail hunting with my dad.
