Uplander:
My English Setter offers French lessons to all Eastern dogs free of charge. He usually holds these classes in Ohio and South Eastern Michigan, but could be persuaded to hold a set in New Jersey.

Do you ever hunt the "Pine Barrens", I think that is close to the areas name. I spent some time in Lakehurst years ago, but never made it out hunting.

Good Luck on your trip to the U.P.
