A Word from Douglas E. Spale
While I aspire to travel the world, for now, I am devoted to exploring North American with my devoted Labradors. I enjoy writing about my experiences, in an effort to inspire others to seek their own adventures in the outdoors and enhance our delicate balance with nature.
Although I was fortunate to begin my hunting and retriever career at a young age on the Great Plains, my hope is to make the outdoors a more welcoming space for all experience levels.
