Moses lays down the law

Tim Pullian of Rustic English Springer Spaniels and Moses took two steps closer to Moses' Master Hunter title by qualifying on both Saturday and Sunday of the Cocker Spaniel Specialty Club's Hunting Test in Cedartown, Ga.

Moses completely dominated the hunting test by maintaining his rock-steady composure in the field. On Sunday, a long-flying bird went up and over the hillside so that there was no possible visual mark by the dog. Judge Joe asked Tim to nevertheless send the dog, telling Tim that this was Moses' "all-star moment." Moses was sent on a long hunt dead and disappeared over the hillside. He returned with the downed bird to earn the right to move to the next phase of the test.

A Master Hunter in waiting.

"Dead."

Right back to Tim.

Moses knows he did well.
