It’s great to see you back an here Old Man! I was getting worried about ya.
I totally agree with your point of view about being able to get it done with or without a particular dog. Sure some dogs are just exciting or maybe you have little extra special chemistry with one, but for the sake of a program they all need to be able to do to your standards. Pretty much everyone in my little hunting circle is hunting this family of dogs. Everyone kinda has the same mind set as you of trying to keep the ages of their pack staggered so that they always have young up and comers. When Ava and Moon were in heat, we were able to put the load on Outlaw and Ranger. They did good and it made them better I think. Once a young dog shows they understand what we are in the woods for, we try and cast them first and give them a chance to do the job, instead of going to the old savvy dogs that know how to get it done. If they don’t get it done in a reasonable amount time then we cast the vets.
That sounds like a super good showing in just a few days. It doesn’t sound like the last two days would’ve been any different from the rest had those people not put the highway in the wrong spot. You should be proud of your hounds and where your at with them. I lost a SUPER nice AB pup to a twisted gut a couple months ago. He was about 8 months old or so and I was very excited about him. You had a little tougher luck than I have. Hopefully the rest of your pack stays healthy!
