I took Katie out this morning.I took her to a good size stand of hickory and oaks.We eased in a little after daylight to find this stand of mast a buzz with the sound of squirrels cutting.She is 5 months old now and learning what the game is all about!She treed 2 by sight.I was able to roll 1 out ot her and the gun did not fire on the second1  .She also winded one and started barking but it was not found.I am excited about this fall!  |

This is good for her. It takes time and experience for her to learn that the gun is her friend and that not every time she barks up a tree will bring success. For her age I would say she in exceptional. Good looking dog. As you know it takes a lot off boot wear to make a top dog. I always loved to see a young dog develop. Once they reach their full potential I tend to get less of a thrill watching them. Maybe for me the excitement is seeing their progress and knowing that I am working with one that is going to make it. What happened to the male you come to Arkansas to get? Ben

Ben,
I ran out of time for that pup.He was started on squirrel and coon.I sold him to a older gentleman to the north of me.I recieved the first report on him several weeks back.He is treeing kit coons very regularly for him.The gentleman was a old coon hunter who wanted a dog that would come when called and did not need a tracking system to hunt him.So it worked out very well for both of us.That pup was born at the wrong time of the year to do him justice.My new pups b-day is just right as I will have a lot of time for her this winter.I like for a pup to be 7-9 months old going into kill season.

Why would someone spend so much money for a beautiful rifle and scope and forego the plastic surgery that is so desperately needed?

The members of Dougs should start a collection for a Rifleman and Tar12 "Beautification Fund." Maybe they can go in together and get a discount. ;D
