"There's hardly been a day in my life I've not owned a bird dog," says 100-years-old Garrett Lockee while telling about chasing wild quail for most of his life. The National Bird Dog Museum in Grand Junction, Tennessee, became his tribute to yesteryear bird hunters and the beloved bird dogs that define a bygone American era. Describing in colorful detail stories about his family, fondest memories and favorite dogs, Lockee characterizes perfectly the heyday of American quail hunting, how and why times have since changed.
