I'm getting closer. When we lost our last dog, (2 of them), about a year ago I was without a dog for the first time in my life. It doesn't feel right.
I'm getting closer and closer to making the call and getting a dog. Definitely a 'hunting', preferably a pointer of some kind... but not really to hunt with. Although I may use him/her when I get the urge for Quail Stew and head to my ranch to harvest some quail.
English Springer Spaniel is probably my top choice... but wow... $$$$$$$$$$. Of course all dogs are expensive these days. I'd get another Vizsla but they're FAR out of my price range these days. LOVED my Vizsla... and I stand by my belief that Vizsla's are the smartest breed of dog there is.... at least as far as 'training'. They don't have, (as much), that 'read your mind' quality some breeds have... like a German Shepard.... but I swear you can train a Vizsla to sit, come, fetch, roll-over, in an hour.... and that when they're no more than 10 weeks old!
