I only hunted locally, often with a friend who took in an English Pointer, a casualty of divorce. My Wirehair and his Pointer worked a field well together, and every now and then, the magic happened: Point! Honor!---and then moments of silence as my buddy and I just watched the living statuary...

Pix of mighty hunting dog and first WI prey. Granted it's not much, but it took her seven years to get this far. I'm quite proud of her.

Happy holiday. Stay safe.

The Framework held together. Took Maggie for a walk around the field below the house today. This is the fourth or fifth time we've made the trek. I carry a shotgun with steel shot, just in case a woody pops up, or in the very unlikely case that a pheasant may have moved in to avoid the deer...

You could carry a dog and use its body heat to keep your hands warm from time-to-time. Just sayin'

Gawd, I loves them wirey haired dawgs!

What is Hok Skiing? Hok skiing is similar to snowshoeing, but it is easier and takes less energy as the hok skis (also known as ski-shoes) are designed for sliding, so you do not need to pick your feet up. It basically involves hybrid skis instead of traditional skis that were invented by Asian...

Dont know; I suspect that Young Bert had more enthusiasm than good judgement. And Maggie? She'd been a kennel dog for most of her breeding years, and was somewhat twitchy until she grew accustomed to life in a home with one other dog and came to understand the routines and strictures( like...

Wears or licks the hair off? Maggie, the new, used, dog arrived with a bare left front paw from licking (?anxiety?). I would apply udder balm when I thought of it. Over the weeks, it all grew back, but front time to time, she licks one paw or another to bare skin; then it grows back. She's...

I stumbled across one at a local town's police department's silent auction. It had been a squad gun in a small Wisconsin town. It was labeled "PS/DS featherweight," which stood for Police special/deerslayer special and was open cylinder 12ga, 20 inches, with the extended magazine and the most...

GREAT video. I kept on thinking that A5 needs to introduce Ace to an accommodating female ESS; he's just a crackerjack hunter. I'm going to try and save this to watch during those dark, cold, months when Winter grows long and Spring is never coming. Thanks, a real pleasure. BE safe.

Dress warm. Be safe.

I don't have a lot of experience, but that such as I have prompts me to say--practice before you commit to a long snowshoe walk. Your calves and thighs and lungs will be exerting more energy and drawing more oxygen than you can imagine. Your body starts to explain the meaning of "old body" real...

Just one added point: I suggested email or a note to eliminate the possibility of hot tempers rising, old slights brought up, and a renewal of your initial anger. Send the message, let it go, and if he contacts you, remain formally polite. Nothing is served by face-to-face recriminations...

Thoughts? Well, calm down, it's over. The anger you are feeling is mostly likely a sense of betrayal by someone you trusted. When you have stopped boiling about it, simmer down and drop him a note or email saying he stepped on your trust as a friend. If you choose, add that you think...

Well, six trips out and this is only the second bird harvested. I haven't been able to get to the nooks and crannies of the public ground until today, when I made the attempt to both get down the slopes AND get back up them. Tinker was delighted and the weather was near perfect except for some...

There are so many beautiful side-by-sides, and you guys seem to own many of them. It's gratifying to see them in use. Thank you.
