Claire and the Raccoon Dog

 The raccoon dog in the park was enjoying the hunting too, only unfortunately he's stuck in one place. Not so for bird dog Claire, who was enjoying the cool spring water from the forest...a hunting setter splashing in the stream to cool down when she wasn't nosing around for cicadas, or checking out the brushwood for cats and squirrels.

 It may not be running free in the mountains chasing partridge or quail, but for a rescued setter in the heart of the metropolis, it's a most satisfying way to spend a walkies for both Mummy and dogs. And if you can't join me as a rescued English setter or pointer owner, please think about donating to Gundog Rescue CACI to help save more of these beautiful abandoned bird dogs in Japan.
