Our porch is being remodeled right now; we're going with all metal railings. It's been through 13 puppies, all chewing on it! ;)
i’ve got a 17 year old barn cat that has trained over 30 tree dogs...we have typed to each other before... ran bear in cal with star mountain plott line many many years ago. maybe i will live long enough to harvest a missouri bear over my dogs. we have a huge number of bears in southern missouri. not many dogmen around here any more, but i have a set of 13 year old twin granddaughters with long bright red hair that love to watch dogs tree and then harvest raccoons. Have lots of grandchildren but only two boys. Unlike our new kiko buck who had mostly male kids
I love the sporting life! :) I wasn’t too sure how good I was going to be with raising and training the pups with the basics, as I’ve only had ‘pets’ before and not real working dogs.
So far, so good. Sad that we’ve lost a few through the years - just to illness, no hunting issues, but I have found that there will always, ALWAYS be a new puppy that needs my care. :)
Love that your granddaughters are into this! Beau does a lot with youth hunting, and is also a Gun Safety instructor for youth. They can gun hunt in WI as young as 10 years old now, with an adult and one gun between them, of course.
