There is nothing quite like experiencing a winter season in South Texas to sharpen a bird dogs hunting prowess. Here are some pictures from Tommy’s most recent stay in Hebbronville, TX from January - February!

Judy, a purebred pointer, was the mascot of several ships in the Pacific, and was captured by the Japanese in 1942 and taken to a prison camp. There she met Aircraftsman Frank Williams, who shared his small portion of rice with her.

Judy raised morale in the POW camp, and also barked when poisonous snakes, crocodiles or even tigers approached the prisoners. When the prisoners were shipped back to Singapore, she was smuggled out in a rice sack, never whimpering or betraying her presence to the guards.

The next day, that ship was torpedoed. Williams pushed Judy out of a porthole in an attempt to save her life, even though there was a 15-foot drop to the sea. He made his own escape from the ship, but was then recaptured and sent to a new POW camp.

He didn't know if Judy had survived, but soon he began hearing stories about a dog helping drowning men reach pieces of debris after the shipwreck. And when Williams arrived at the new camp, he said: "I couldn’t believe my eyes! As I walked through the gate, a scraggly dog hit me square between the shoulders and knocked me over. I’d never been so glad to see the old girl!"

They spent a year together at that camp in Sumatra. "Judy saved my life in so many ways," said Williams. "But the greatest of all was giving me a reason to live. All I had to do was look into those weary, bloodshot eyes and ask myself: 'What would happen to her if I died?' I had to keep going."

Once hostilities ceased, Judy was then smuggled aboard a troopship heading back to Liverpool. In England, she was awarded the Dickin Medal (the "Victoria Cross" for animals) in May 1946. Her citation reads: "For magnificent courage and endurance in Japanese prison camps, which helped to maintain morale among her fellow prisoners, and also for saving many lives through her intelligence and watchfulness".

At the same time, Frank Williams was awarded the PDSA's White Cross of St. Giles for his devotion to Judy. Frank and Judy spent a year after the war visiting the relatives of English POWs who had not survived, and Frank said that Judy "always provided a comforting presence to the families."

When Judy finally died at the age of 13, Frank spent two months building a granite and marble memorial in her memory, which included a plaque describing her life story.

Training seminars seem to be popular these days so in order to stay on the leading edge we’ve contracted a talking horse to give a series of lectures. It looks like he’s got everyone’s undivided attention.

This good looking English pointer that arrived with some gun issues appears to be well on his way to overcoming them and progressing towards lots of fun hunting experiences to come.

Traps and pigeons; Be cautious with your introduction

This video displays the intensity and force with which a pigeon trap will launch a bird. This loud violent motion can be just as scary to a young or beginning dog as firing a gun. Use caution when first introducing your youngsters to this method of training.

This video is about Traps

8 month old willie here gives a great example of our goals fir the simple yet important foundation a few weeks into our puppy development program. With a strong intense point, naturally staunch through bird interaction, and a highly enthusiastic chase and prey drive Willie is already shaping up to be a great bird hunting partner

Babe with an intense point and Roxie with a solid back. You put in the time and training and when it all comes together ...

Mr. Woods, any chance you have a grouse bred English Setter available for stud?
Tom Woods, you are my hero. You took my crazy show dog and molded her into a bird dog. I can't thank you enough for training and handling her to her AKC Senior Hunter title. I know it was frustrating at times but thank you for sticking with it. I couldn't be happier. You are the miracle worker!
