I've had two incredible hunting dog feats.

The first happened in about 1976 while duck hunting with my young pup Duke, an English Springer Spaniel on a pothole off the Wolf River in Northeastern Wisconsin when a trio of drake Mallards suddenly appeared over the tree tops and were circling the pothole in an inverted V formation, as they came past for their third go 'round I took one shot with my 20-ga. Ithaca/SKB 280's IC barrel shooting 3" 7 1/2s. All three fell to the water dead. Duke made the triple retrieve when he was just 8 months of age.

The 2nd was about three years ago, my English Setter Winston stopped to point a woodcock while retrieving another. Unfortunately, I didn't connect on the 2nd bird. Here's a pic of that event:
