Took a shot of ole Hawk while I still had him. Casey his daddy from Don's Buckeye X Sugar Ridge Ivory Patch and his mama Aunt Sib from Don's Buckeye Patch X Sugar Ridge Patch Peaches. Ivory and Peaches were full sisters from Hot Patch Hard Rock X Hot Patch Blossom. Buck was from Ole Stupe X White Lady.

Let's see some your old warriors not forgotten...

How old is he Charles?

This post made me think I should take Hammer out before it's too late.
I haven't had him out since last July when he got hit by a car, he's healed well, but awful stiff ever since.
Hammer and I hit it yesterday for a few hours, he hunted just like always, one of the best jump dogs I've ever owned. He jumped one within 5 minutes of cutting and ran it hit and miss for about a half an hour.
He jumped #2 shortly after and this one lasting for an hour and a half.
Just steady (slow paced with the snow and his age) with minimal short checks. I couldn't believe how consistent he was for being layed up for so long.
It sure brought back some good memories of when he was a young hound. I finally had to catch him off the rabbit, I didn't want him hurting today.

I'll be running him at least once a week now, I don't want to be sitting here one day feeling bad because he spent his last years sitting in a kennel.

Charles,
Thank you for this post, because without it, I would have run young hounds yesterday.

Rowdy,
He's 12, I remember when Bud and I met at Fort Wayne to exchange the pups, I gave him Hawk and he gave me Horn.
How's the snow up your way?

Yeah, the weather man said it was almost 50 degs. warmer a year ago, than it is today. They say new low record coming tonight, I got my heavy coat back out to wear to work. Pot of soup cooking on the stove sure smells good. We had just started using the grill again, not tonight... :lol:
