There’s a gentleman down east of you I believe that has a bay pen for training etc. I’d like to get down there and see what these pups will do, solo and then in company. Then I’ll run to my friends in Hondo, he’s got a 35 acre enclosure with game in it, but it turns into a much less controlled ...

It’s fun to watch them progress, but there’s a part of me that doesn’t limit to see them miss an opportunity. They’ll have plenty more soon enough, for young pups they get out pretty good so far. There’s been a couple times the red dog just goes by himself and doesn’t care if he’s got company or not ...

T, yeah they definitely look the part so I think they’re finished dogs going off appearances. I really like the red male, he looks all cur, leggy and lean, he seems to have more drive and grit. The other one is a little bigger and shows the bulldog influence, but he’s a big baby, if he ever realizes ...

I’ve been going about once a week, I’m starting three new dogs with my jagd, so you can all imagine how that’s going. He’s found a few, but they got a lot of learning to do. I’m soaking wet by the time I get back to the truck, did I mention I do not like the summer heat?

Yes, Judge is a good one, his dogs are legit. The momma dog looks a lot better in person than when she was blown up with a belly full of pups. She’s got some leg under her and moves with athleticism, which I like.

I’m just wondering if those pups will be smart enough to back up and bay or if they ...

I’m not by nature a patient person, I like early starters but never have seem to have any. The heide has a percentage of Airedale, I’ve heard they’re slow to mature. Maybe that’s true, idk, I’m moving towards the cur style dogs. My friend has a young catahoula, smaller framed dog, but man he is a ...

Man it just seems to vary a lot, not in my case. My male just turned three and he finally put it together, he ain’t perfect and has his faults, but he hunts and will go pretty far on a track. The big female is that heideterrier, her mother is a straight catch, idk how the father is on hogs, he was ...

Lawdawg, somehow I’ve been lucky with the jagd’s I’ve had as far as bay/bust/catch. Mine always preferred to bay and will only catch the small stuff. My buster is the bigger dog that should be catching but has commitment issues doing it, or needs more practice to get it right.

Thanks a good outing lawdawg, I’ve been doing the solo thing up here. More chasing than catching, I catch the easy ones and chase the rest out of the country. My little chopper jagd had a couple bayed, then my bay buster figured I needed to walk off a few unwanted pounds. I did pick up a couple new ...

I knew I was going to have my situational awareness set on high that day, I was concerned an ember would start a fire where I was and trap me up there. The video going thru the burning houses is the road I drove to get up there. A buddy of mine was on that call and recorded that.

Rowdy I used to hit a box canyon north of Castaic along the PCT, I just used to walk the jagd’s through there and they’d take ofF after whatever they smelled. Could’ve been fox, could’ve been some sort of feline creature, I do know it’s really steep so I didn’t get off the trail unless I had to ...

Rowdy, that Castaic fire is a couple miles from one of the spots where I ran my dogs and got the trail cam footage of bear and mountain lion. That area has burned a lot in the last 7 years or so.

Well I’ve been doing a little pest control on a small property here. Honestly just feeding and getting trail cam pics of sounders and a couple boars. Last week I went out there to throw some feed and move a camera.

So I leave the dogs at home thinking I’m gonna just be there briefly. I spread some ...

I’d venture to guess, what you’re left with now are runners. The one ranch we go to doesn’t get dogged unless we go there. The last couple times I went there, the dogs would strike and the boars would not go far at all, just stand their ground and challenge the dogs to bring it on. Get western ...
