Couldn't be happier at the moment. This is Ben's Texas Ranger, my 16 month old Kemmer, finally getting some puppy out of him and locking down on a bushy tail. I have been working him as much as possible in hopes of having him more than well started by the end of this squirrel season. Today was the first day I was truly impressed with what I saw. Hope this is a good preview for what is going to evolve over the next 5 months and there after.  His pops was the best tree dog I have ever personally hunted behind. Hunter had no quit in him what so ever....this is Hunter after a day in Newton County. 47 total that day if I remember correctly. Unfortunately, some POS sorry excuse for a human being stole hunter about a month or two after this pic was taken. Hunter is on the left.  |

Thanks Mr. Whitten and good luck to you as well.
Pwilson,
If you ever go, especially with a sure-nuff dog... get ready to have another mouth to feed. lol. It's a bit addicting. I love watching dogs work in any aspect, but it amazes me to watch these squirrel dogs. Think about this for a second... we have all watched a limb rat...they are all over the place. left, right, up, down, 180, back and forth like a nervous crack head. Then to watch these dogs be able to zero in on exactly what tree they are in, it never gets old! I hope one day you can check it out for yourself.

I just have a feeling it will be habit forming after one trip....or breathtaking, literally like I'm fat and out of shape and this terrain is kicking my hiney! lol |

those are some nice looking Kemmers...just think...if a kemmer can sniff out a tree rat high up in a tree...just think how easy it is for them to find a 250 pound stinky boar even in a thick briar patch...that's why I like mt cur in the mix for hog dogs... |

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...

Out of curiosity, are your mtn. curs silent on track? Never hogdogged with one, just wondering. My brother-in-law has that brindle OMC on the right in the pic and he is silent as he can be until he trees hard when hunting squirrels. Complete opposite on a coon...he opens up on a hot track. |
