Re: How Important is close check work?

All the dogs I've ever seen that swing, were consistantly ran with dogs that were faster than they were, and they could'nt take not being on the front.

Nice looking pups!

Joeyman, I think you should be in the HOF for your post. You by far have the best topics going on a regular basis.

Re: Eggs!!

When the chickens are laying more than we can eat, I give the dogs the extra. The dogs also come in handy if one of the chickens get loose :D

Re: Rabbit hunting vs. Deer Hunting

As I have witnessed first hand, running dogs does not effect the deer at my house. I run dogs behind my house and listen from the back door. Last night as a matter of fact, I walked outside to see how the chase was going and two deer were less than 50 yards of my house. They are so use to the dogs r...

Weak legs???

I had a female pup born July 18, She was the only living pup. She grew the fastest of any pup I've ever raised. I mean real FAT. Anyway, her back legs seem to be weak. They stick out to the side. She can walk, but her back legs just are not strong enough to stablize her body like they should. I put ...

Re: hunts too far out???

dogs racing down a trail for any length is a big no no. I like my dogs to jump off the tailgate, pee, put their nose down and get in the briars. That is usually close enough for me. The kind of dogs I run, which are cottontail bred, if they have there mind on a rabbit they usually hunt fairly close....

Re: How often do you run your hounds in this heat ?

I turned mine out yesterday morning(I took off work) about 7:30am. A little after lunch, one of my old dogs came up in the yard with the rabbits head, and the young dogs didnt come back until 2 or 3 yesterday after noon. They get run 2-3 times a week regardless of the heat. I turn them out and leave...

Re: Feeding Chicken Eggs ???

I'm not buying all the purina jive either. We keep chickens directly behind the dog pen, under the same roof. The only seperation is chainlink with chicken wire. They get eggs on a regular basis. Good for mama when she's with pups. Will help with hair loss. Eggs put weight on the dogs with ease.
