    "flight school"

    Caught my Labrador pup TTF CRAIGHORN KIFFIN TRAD JH on film getting a bit o' air time logged in "flight school" during me morning training session with him. TRAD really thinks he can fly!


    Totally "bird driven", TRAD has a tremendous desire to retrieve, that being the ultimate reward, TRAD got some "BIG AIR" when sent off of the dock for retrieval of his Dokken Mallard.



    TRAD touching down in about 12 feet of water. At times he goes completely underwater upon landing, making me sure he is part otter.

    Cheers,
    IRISHWISTLER

    Very nice action shots. That platform or dock looks cool. How high off the water is it?

    Jack,
    The water level in the pond has dropped significantly and is now close to 4 feet below the level of the dock. TRAD is still landing in about 12 feet of water.

    It looked like a pretty good drop off. Trad could use a Superman cape in that first photo ! My Cassie runs to the end of the dock, pauses and then jumps in but I doubt she would jump with the water that far below her.
