I couldnt agree more there mate. The bitch i have now is my best friend and i have more trust in her than i do in most humans! When hunting we seem to think the same and both know what the other one is thinking. If im hunting with her and she doesnt catch i know she has done everything in her power to ensure she brings something back, if she doesnt at least she gives her all that to me is what makes a good dog.
All the best
Steve
