Ted - my V. Bernardelli Hemingway comes in at 5lb. 14oz. - just about right for me. But I'm always open to a little French flirtation...

The American water spaniel is an interesting choice, and I have seen a lot of them. But IMHO anything an AWS can do will be learned faster and done better by a field-bred English springer or cocker. If s-l-o-w is your goal, the Clumber spaniel is a perfect old man's dog - a ponderous, powerful close-working flusher that'll root birds out of the thickest cover. And even I can outrun them!

Ted - You're right about many younger old farts, not so much for older ones. Surviving older farts beat the large waistband mortality rate. Photos of hunters in the current issue of PF magazine who died before age 60 are sad evidence.
