One of the things I do when photographing pets is to document the relationship between the owner and the animal.  There is something special not only with the love of the pet, but also a deeper bond when that animal is also a working animal.  Urbie Nash is a grouse hunter and has several dogs that go with him on hunts, but he has a special relationship with Kip his English Setter.  Kip typically always goes with him on his hunts.  This video is a showcase of the images from a mock hunt between the two of them.
