Five years ago was my dog's first season hunting. Opening morning first bird of the day was a teal that came in real hot and my buddy stands up and smokes him. The teal falls about 40 yards behind the blind in the marsh. I send my pup and she makes a b-line for the bird and comes right back with the teal. Awesome first retrieve for her and to make it even better that teal was banded! Didn't think the weekend could get any better until the next morning when I killed a Cinnamon Teal out of a flock of Bluewing's. That was definitely a weekend for the record books.
