Title: Rip flash
Post by: Judge peel on August 14, 2025, 10:41:22 pm
Had to put ol flash down. He was 18 yrs old I had 15 yrs. He was the best dog I have ever had or hunted behind period. He could do it all needed no help. That being said he wasn’t perfect but he was my buddy to always happy to see me and always hunted hard. He will be missed greatly truly one of a kind type dog

Judge it sucks but at least he isn’t suffering. He went relatively fast once he started to decline and that’s a blessing and you were home to tend to him. Do you have anything off of him on your yard?

It always sucks to lose a good one no matter how long they live.

He must’ve been a good one to live as long as he did in the hog hunting world. Sorry for your loss Judge, always stings a little to lose a good one.

Ya wayoutwest it defiantly not the norm. I had another one two yrs ago that was 17 and had heart worms at 4 or 5 which I cured my self. Clean water and a reason to live will take them long ways lol. I had a catahula yrs ago that lived about the same might been 16  and shorty was bout 14 still catching hogs when she passed.
