All-Age dogs are at times run in Open Shooting Dog Championships especially in big country, such as this. Sometimes it is difficult to distingush between the two types of dogs when the country is so large.

Sullivan is off his horse attempting to find a bird that his setter pointed. Colvin and a scout (right) watch to see if a bird is located as well as watch the dog for movement.

Pinecone Max Jr. points indicating a bird is nearby. Sullivan attempts to go around and flush out the bird. Judge Colvin watches the activities on his horse.

Another point by Pinecone Max Jr as Sullivan walks out front to flush out a bird.
