We had the UKC world qualifier this weekend in Sharon, Va. I had just got Ruger back friday morning from a friend of mine who ran him for me for a whole month in his 42 acre running pen. I wanted to see him go before I took him saturday to run the hunt. Click the link below to watch our runs. We ran a few rabbits and hunted for about 2 hours. Runnning was great!!!

At the hunt, running was good but was at a bad spot to run UKC hunting beagle... It was so thick we couldnt get any lines or even see the dogs. They hammered rabbits for the whole 2 hours but if you dont get the line you dont keep your plus points and then when the dog breaks down it gets its minus. Ruger was running against a few champions that I have already seen go and they are nice and against them he did great! But at the end of the hunt everyone in the cast came home with -120 because we could never lget plus points. I entered Ruger into the show and this is his second trial and he only needs 30 points to become a UKC show champion. Here is a pic below...
