Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire what does your dog do?

Yes...all 7 of them...

If a dog can't point, retrieve, tree, trail up wounded deer hit with an arrow, tree squirrels, trail up bobcats shot at night with a 22 mag. and gut shot coyotes, scare the chitt out of Mexicans and blacks approaching the truck or house like my Jules GSP I have no use for it.

Then you sure wouldn't want mine! Really not mine but belongs to my daughter and her family and I live with them so guess he's my dog part of the time.

He does a pretty good job of eating but resting and sleeping is where he really shines.

Oskar, the weenie dog.

eat and chit and provide me entertainment.

Correct Bigbuck. Going back this July as well.

And the other shot surely is the infamous "Heart Attack Hill."

You'll be going in what month?

Really enjoying all these pics!!
Salmonella...that's a beautiful terrier!!
Charlie- I thought of you the first time I saw it,...J�ger can do the same thing with his nails!!!...but he swims like a fish.

For the o.p.- I think beagles are one of the toughest dogs there are to try to keep contained. They are expert escape artists! I've owned 2 and we had one when I was a kid. My dad went round and round with "Daisy".
Just like an inmate planning an escape, she'd travel the perimeter of the fence looking for weak spots.
When she found one, she would stop....then slowly look over her shoulder...both ways,...makeing sure the old man wasn't watching...
Then she'd start the tunnel!!!
What she didn't know, was the old man was playing "prison guard"!!
He would be stationed at a window with my pump gun ready to pepper her azz!!

The look she would throw back at him when she DID make it out was PRICELESS!!! If dogs had middle fingers...

She won though! She wore him down until she finally just came and went as she pleased.

Hunt!!
J�ger runs long range reconnaissance, while Penny takes care of close quarters combat.

Not mine, but these are good at coyotes:

My Terrier is a squirrel hunting maniac....

My Jack is OBSESSED with the pigeons I keep for dog training.
Give her an "A" for effort...

Being a versatile bird dog, by catching musk rats.

good dog!

Gotta love the versatiles!!
Dutch, your link to your kennel page isn't working. I did find it though.
Neat breed. I can honestly say I'd never heard of it.
That's what most people say to me!

My yellow lab ate plumbers putty when she was a puppy. When I called the Vet, his assistant told me all they would do is force feed her peroxide and it would be cheaper if I did it myself. They gave me a very large syringe and a promise that anything she had eaten would come out. Major understatement. When it was all over (maybe 10 seconds, max.) all I could say was wow.

I know it sounds odd, but does anyone know how to teach a full grown black lab to swim? I adopted him when he was almost 2 years old and he had obviously been mistreated. We tried giving him a bath when we first got him. When he saw the water hose, he bolted for his kennel and wouldn't come out for hours. We later took him to the creek with the aforementioned plumber. He acted like he wanted to play but wouldn't get in the water. I finally pushed him off the dock and he sank like a rock. I had to jump in and pull him out.

Duckdog, thanks for pointing that out, I fixed it.

Drents are quite rare outside of The Netherlands, but I obviously have a connection. They do very well, and I especially like how they hunt with their heads, instead of just on instinct.

Well, I'm off to clean up after the litter!

the current love of my life:

I have probably adopted ten or twelve senior goldens through the years, very costly due to medical bills, very rewarding as to having them with me. The two older ones are gone now, cancer, peroditis among other things. Yogi had buckshot in him when i got him from some idiot. The younger one is still around:

fresh arrival from oklahoma with about 17 other rescues. He was horribly abused, multiple scars on legs, terrified of humans. At 6 now he is much better, but still wary of strangers. I would hate to be the one that made a move on my wife with her shadow beside her:

When Mr. Wienie isn't out slaying moles in the yard, his favorite things are sleeping, riding in the truck, or even better, combining the 2. Spoiled little feller.....
