I can't comment much on the 8 weeks or no trash stuff cuz I haven't seen his dogs do either. sounds a little strong, but what the heck go see him and ask him to show you. I have an old phot of two Goswick bred pups a bluetick and a black and tan colored littermates,baying a big black and white tom c...

Not a problem folks and Buddy you are a good person. Listen ? Hear that? that is the wind of knowledge that blows over all of as as we walk this rocky trail of life. Sometimes we hear it and stop to look, other times we are just to busy or caught up in our day to day business to pay much attention. ...

I will say a bit on this. first off let me preface my comments with this. I know Weldon and have hunted with him. Although this was some years ago he came to my place and stayed a few days and hunted. The walker dogs he had then were as fine a pack of cold nosed , hard working lion dogs as a guy cou...

By your sign in I would have thought you were a bluetick man. Oh well dogs is dogs. I would say you might want to check over there around Ruidoso, Hondo, and that country. Some pretty good walkers dogs over there, a lot of them Washburn bred. In that old hot country you have down there I think you a...

Some of you may remember famous many times world champion bron rider Monty (Hawkeye) Henson.When asked what he liked about the cowboy life he said. Every #amn thing pard I like her all!


I guess that's what I would have to say about hunting especially with hounds or bird dogs. I liker her all!

There could be a book written on this with lots of great advice from many. Here's what I would do if I was you. I would get ahold of the most knowledable hound and cat man in your area and get some advice from him. start you pups playing what we call puppy games as soon as they show intrest. Drags, ...

My first dog that was really mine was called Doc. He was a registered English Pointer. He went everywhere with me. Although we always had hounds and birdogs around the place because my Dad and another man ran a bird dog kennel, and training facility. So I always had lots of pups to socialize, but ol...

Sure can't argue with that Ike. I use to be a pretty hard core bear hunter but these days I seem to concentrate more on cat and lion, but there is somthing about bear hunting that is truely addictive.I have a good freind who is in my oinion one of the better bear hunters in the country, and he has s...

I don't really like the term Gascon but I guess it has been coined enough that it has become original. My old amigo Al womack was in my opinion the leading breeder and authority on the old fashioned bluetick type hound. The Grande De Blu De Gascogne of France is a distinct breed and has very little ...

Mostly this is a color thing. there was a group at one time that started a line of dogs they callled the american saddleback Hound. These were eccentially a family bred up line using redbone, and black and tan crosses. True redbone is the only color that is dominant over the black and tan color in h...

For heavan's sake don't play that DVD with small children around. LOL!

Let me just say that not only is Dave a good hunter and trainer, but he also has about the most flowery vocabulary you will ever here.

It is a riot, but not for small kids or others that can't stand a little fould language.

Good information Nora.We do not stress the foundation percentage in our horses, but we do lean heavily on them in the crosses we make. No doubt Three Bars, and Leo had as much impact on the breed as a whole in the early days as any. The crossing of the TB stock horse blood onto the foundation which ...

I am sure you heard about the quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons, Mike Vick, that is being prosecuted under animal cruelty laws for being involved in a dog fighting ring. Anyway it is all over the news out here and the presidents of both the Humane Society of America and PETA are giving a lot of in...

Horses doing fine Nora, had a heck of a good ride today. I did a couple mile warm up, and then came back to the arena to try out some new bosals and hackamore rigs I had built up. I have a freind who is a great trainer and an excellent rawhide man and he braided me up three new ones that I have been...

Looks good Spanky! I like the way you are crossing them and it is along with the method called static terminal sire which has been very successful and regarded for a long time. Also I think you have a great idea in placing these pups with hunters you know so you can track the progress of the whole l...
