Re: I hate to do this........

When I lived in New Hampshire and had coonhounds there was an older fellow lived across the river in Vermont that also kept coonhounds.His wife had passed on and he'd been a widower for quite awhile.He and I had hunted together a couple of times and he was quite the character.If he had been from the...

Re: How many to a kennel

Re: Good Judges you have seen..

This past Feb.I watched Brad and Brian Johnson from Michigan judge a class of 15"females and the next day watched Earl Rice and Bruce New judge the 15" males.They were judging from horseback and I was impressed with the four of them .Not only for the looks they gave the hounds but also for their con...

Re: Watch out for this predator

I talked with the sheriff's investigator yesterday.He told me he has a real good idea of who broke into my house but now he just has to prove it.I told him that he could just tell me as my burden of proof doesn't have to be nearly as strong as his!He told me he's gotten info. from a reliable source ...

Watch out for this predator

There's a predator on the loose that you might not recognize.He might just be passing through your area or he might live close by and you don't even know it.Some want to blame the economy and tough times for the increase in his predation but to me there is NO EXCUSE!If you are a hunter,shooter or ju...

Re: Which is harder to win in, ARHA, UKC, or AKC.

When I lived in New Hampshire I attended A.K.C.Large Pack on Hare trials and I can tell you that when they turn out as many as 40 or more dogs together and then spend the next 7-8 hours letting them run and whittling them down to the winners pack you better be sure you've got a "for real" dog with y...

Re: what to breed to????

This isn't an outcross.If I'm not mistaken she would be Ali-Baba linebreeding as I believe Huckleberry is from Ali-Baba.

Re: Mathew Dillan Macrea

I ran with Flash when Frank Clay owned him and when the Hills had him.A very nice,smooth running hound that could keep a rabbit going.A little slower and more conservative then what I keep but a good hound none the less.
Flash has been dead for quite awhile now.
