Got the American Field yesterday and in the list of Handler of the Year was the GDF own Mr. Rich Heaton.

I have been told on good authority from Idaho that the dog makes him look really good, how about it Dr. Favor.

Owes it to his training partners and scouts. We all know the handler is just a figure piece, stuck out in front to keep 'em out of trouble!

Making himself a regular on the Purina lists! Good job!

Uhhh, might be a dumb question, but for a non-AF guy... what constitutes 'handler of the year'? Does it go by points earned with all dogs handled (which is what I would assume), or is it by vote etc..? THanks.

Holy Moley!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I started a thread where they are not talking about crossing to semmital cattle or something. This is a big deal to be on the list and let a bunch of guys and ladies on the GDF throw stuff at him

Jerry

Him and Favor will get me back. Doug, what is his dog's name????????????????

Idaho's lucky lady? I know a Heaton owns a dog called Copper Sunrise,but I think that's his dads dog.I think he handles it too however.I never bothered to get a field and look through it but I think from memory I'm at least half right.
