Frankie is my beautiful, majestic, perfectly mannered bird dog. Frankie is a two year old bird dog and living with him during the off season is like living with the Tasmanian devil.
Frankie loves birds and hunting more than anything else and the only thing that seems to use up his boundless energy is bird hunting. Unfortunately for Frankie (and me) pheasant season in Pennsylvania does not start for another month or so and Frankie has had plenty of down time to search for an outlet for his pent-up bird energy.
One of his favorite things to do now is climb on things including but not limited to: the furniture, windowsills, and tables. He also loves to steal socks and napkins. We work on some training exercises but he mostly uses this as a chance to do the exact opposite of what I tell him.

| He loves to test out clean sheets |
I try to give him alternative activities while we wait for hunting season such as fetch and going for walks...but this only tires him out for a very short time.

| He is excellent at fetch...until he sees a bird fly over head |

| Looking for birds instead of posing on a walk |
Send help! Or birds!
