A BIT ABOUT GROUSER

Grouser is one of the best grouse dogs at Willow Creek. While pondering his name for some time, he went on a run in mid-March, 2018 (8.5 months old). He had three finds on grouse within a span of 20 minutes. We were extremely happy with his natural ability to find and point grouse at a young age. Willow Creek has been working to develop the grounds to hold more birds and wildlife and the management has been paying off. Grouser's ability to find and point one of the most challenging upland birds sealed the right to his name.

Grouser also has one of the sweetest dispositions. If you've ever had the chance to meet him, he would likely request a cuddle through a polite paw and a submissive, inviting gaze. 

  • 2022 - April 24 & 25 - Grouser wins first place in the Moose River Grouse Club cover dog trial. He ran Open Shooting Dog with 21 other dogs, handled by Jordan Pharris
