Happy Hunting Grounds

Been doing some scouting during the early season for spots to hit after the leaves fall. Been finding good locations in the mountains while knocking "the rust" off of the dogs. It looks like we are blessed with another good mast year and decent numbers of young squirrels. Should make training a snap!


Ranger ZOOOMING back to me to check in.

Rosie listening for movement on the ground.
I have been rotating the dogs so everyone gets "woods time." The older dogs (Daisy and Ranger) need to sharpen back up. Carson needs to continue making progress and of course the pups have a lot to learn! All the young dogs are making leaps and bounds toward making squirrel dogs. I am VERY ready for the leaves to fall off to reinforce the good progress the dogs are making and tighten up the old dogs on tree.

The competition season is rapidly approaching and has already started in many states. We plan on traveling some this year to new areas and making sure to swing by some of the old spots. See y'all in the timber!
