Lost a great one today. Ole Bell the Lacy from my good Friend Tom Graham. She had a tumor that started on her Uterus and grew into massive size in just two months . Bell lived her life here with me and Kat since she was a pup given to me by Tom. She was a great one for me and found no telling how many hogs 100's of them. R.I.P. my great friend words cannot describe how you will be missed ! Save me a pig are two up there till I can get there to meet ya ! Can't help but shed a tear !



 R.I.P. Bell ! Love ya !

Yeah , I tell ya its tuff to loose a good one like that.  They thought she just had a inflamed Uterus and they could go in and take it out but once he opened her up she was full of blood and he found the massive tumor .  Said that it wrapped around her Uterus were it started out and was around her bladder and half way around her kidneys .  He said it was no way he could cut it out it was just to massive.  So we did what we had to do and he put her down she would have just suffered to bad.  I learned something from this, that I had heard old time dog men talk about.  You see I only bred Bell one time and she only had one pup that Handle It has,  the Tuff dog.  But he said that he see's a lot of this in five, six and seven year old gyp dogs that have not been bred are maybe just bred one time in their life.   He said that a dog that is never bred and they are five six years old has a higher chance of this kind of thing .  Once a gyp hits five six seven years old they over produce a lot of the hormone Progesterone and this is what opens the Uterus, lets them breed and lets the sperm in to the egg's.  Well if one has never been bred and is getting this old he says that their bodies over produce large amounts of Progesterone and the Uterus stays open for longer periods of time even after they go out of heat because of the large amounts of Progesterone because of  never being bred and the Uterus does not close as they would in a younger dog and is producing right amounts of Progesterone .  So what this does is leaves the females Uterus open for bacteria to get into the Uterus and start causing big time problems such as what Bell was having .  It can turn into cancer, tumors and either causing death such as Bell are having to take the female section out and never being able to have pups again .  

Old, old time bulldog men always told me if you got a great bred bitch that comes from a great great line of dogs there is nothing wrong with breeding them on their first heat cycle .  They would say that if you do this you will just have to go threw the pups and the gyp later on as she gets older to see if she worked out are didn't work out but they say this helps a gyp threw out her life to have pups much much easier and that most the time you will never have trouble with one if she is bred early in her life .  They would say you wait and it is a ticking time bomb.  Well now I know what they ment .

Sorry to hear that. Seems like the great ones, one way or another, we have a short time with. Almost like we don't deserve a long time with a great one.

Hate to hear that my friend. Had that exact thing happen to one of my gyps, caused cancer in her just like you said cause she had only been bred once.  RIP Bell, my condolences Jimmy.

Aw man ,  been more than you think this year .  Caught some hogs but these helicoptors have them push off all this farm land and most the ranch land and they have gone deep into other property's that will not let you run a dog .  So they been calling and wanting me to put a few traps here and there and hell why not if I cant run a dog over there I might as well catch what I can .  Am hoping soon as these crops bloom out they will be back .  I seen this coming here three years ago around here and this year we are living proof of it .  I hate a fing Helicopter shooting hogs .  Peta wants something for real to bitch about for once there you go !
