I take Tony for a run most everyday. There is an area about a mile or so from my house, that has weeds and trees on it. Believe it or not; it is the outer edge of the parking lot for a Football Stadium owned by the City. It is about 1 1/2 miles long. The best part is; It has resident Quail. Tony my Brittany just loves it, he gets to run and find a Quail now and then. He knows just about everyplace they are most likely to be.
Today, he went on point in one of the weedy areas and when I got to him, he had the gosh awful look on his face. I went looking for the bird in the weeds, kicking and walking. Tony still on point, still had this look on his face. I then realized he was SMILING. The biggest smile I have ever seen him have.
I went on looking for the bird, finally in frustration, I said;"Find the bird Tony." He didn't move, he bends his down and next to the front leg on the ground, he pushes out the bird with his nose. It flew to where they always go, over to the cemetery.
I said "Oh you enjoyed letting me look all over for it, when you had it pinned all the time." Now I wonder if that giant smile wasn't an attempt at laughing.
