I like hunting anything with dogs and if I can't use a dog I really don't care that much about it. Over the years I have raised and trained labs for ducks and geese. Squirrel dogs for squirrel. I have hunted coons and deer with hounds.

One time I started adding up the number of bird dogs I have personally owned and quit after I got to 200. I had some big leases and put in lots of miles hunting, training, and trialing. It is expensive and when my boy started college I had to sell out most of my dogs and equipment.

The quail are just about gone and I just quit them. One time per year I go to South Dakota hunting pheasant, grouse, prairie chicken, and huns.

This good friend of mine kept trying to get me to go hog hunting with him but I had heard all of the stories and was hesitant to go. Anyway, I went and that trip cost me alot of money. It was like crack or herione would be I guess because I was hooked big time.

I had nothing to hunt with but a desire. Within 2 weeks I bought a 4 wheeler and a dog. Hunting with another guys dog is like kissing your sister. That is all I have been doing for the last 14 years.


You said it all right there... Smiley

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...
A hunting dog is born not made...
