Hello to all. I am a new forum member and look forward to getting and sharing GSH information.

I have a 3 year old female, Sophie, and she has really solidified this year in upland hunting. This was her 2 full year hunting, she broke her front right leg right at the begining of the 2010 season.

I picked up a new puppy from a reputable breeder in souther MO. Jake is 9 weeks old. He seems to be adjusting to his new home ok ... I brought him home at 6 weeks. We have 3 small breed dogs running from 5 yrs to 2 yrs. Jake and the 3 chase and wrestle all the time. I have one concern. When not running, playing with the 3 other dogs, or interacting with my wife and I, Jake keeps his tail tucked. He does not show any signs of being afraid, he just keeps it tucked as he wonders the house.

I assume that he is still unsure of his surroundings. I have a very good vet and she has given him a full exam and he is in good health.
