Title: RIP Tweety Post by: Circle C on February 20, 2012, 10:54:01 am Mike's Tweety dog died last night. She was a pleasure to hunt with. Hustle, range, bottom, you name it, she had it.
She will be missed by many, but especially by Mike Bolen, Mike Hilscher, and Matt Goodson, who are the three men that have owned and hunted Tweety throughout her life. Not too many pics of Tweety, as she wasn't the type to hang around for a photo ;) I did manage to find on of her at home.

I was hoping Mike was just pulling my leg last night at first but unfortunately not....she sure put some good dogs on the ground and her blood will carry on.
RIP Tweety .... Title: Re: RIP Tweety Post by: blakebh on February 20, 2012, 10:58:48 am Man sorry to hear that! RIP Tweety

Title: Re: RIP Tweety Post by: Bryant on February 20, 2012, 11:42:43 am Sorry to hear. I hunted behind her a couple times, and she was the real deal. Hard to even begin thinking about how to replace one like that.

Title: Re: RIP Tweety Post by: TexasHogDogs on February 20, 2012, 02:10:41 pm Hate to hear that the good ones hurt the most. Sorry to hear it.
Title: Re: RIP Tweety Post by: uglydog on February 20, 2012, 02:11:40 pm Quote Tweety was as much a part of this forum as any member Thats the truth. Not many pure bred, True pure bred dogs that contribute as much as Tweety has over the years. Not many dogs are as consistent as Tweety has been, many talk the talk but few truly walk that walk. Eventually if you breed a dog enough your going to get a few good dogs, Tweety reminded me of a xerox machine and could produce hunting dogs, her pups and grand pups can do it also and I can say I dont know many dogs in this world that can claim the resume' she has. She started hunting at an early age and hunted right on through until the end. RIP Tweety girl, you sure had my respect for a dog and especialy for a Catahoula. Title: Re: RIP Tweety Post by: matt_aggie04 on February 20, 2012, 02:45:03 pm I sure will miss that dog. I got her and hunted her and my crow dog together for the first time and I knew right then she was something special. Me and Mike always hunted together and he really liked her to so I knew where she needed to go when I decided to sell her. She was at a different house but we still hunted together and I enjoyed every trip I ever made to the woods with that dog. Like I told Mike last night, she taught us a lot about hunting and what dogs are supposed to be like. They are very few and far between like old tweety bird.
Matt (http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f277/matt_aggie04/DSC02878.jpg) This picture really reminds me of her. We were standing there talking in the creek, she came by got a drink, ran about 75 yards down creek and up the bank and struck a small group of hogs there in the cane. I like to remember her about like this picture depicts her, in the woods enjoying what she did best. Title: Re: RIP Tweety Post by: djhogdogger on February 20, 2012, 02:45:48 pm So sorry to hear that Mike. From everything Ive ever read about Tweety over the years, I know that she was one of those once in a life time kind of dogs and that she like family. She will always be remembered. RIP Tweety. :(

I am very sorry for your loss.Tweety was a big part of my first hog hunt and made me realize that there is more to dogs hunting hogs then what a couple of youtube videos could ever show me. R.I.P Tweety (http://i1202.photobucket.com/albums/bb366/CHRISHEARNE1982/Picture671.jpg) best picture i could get that night Title: Re: RIP Tweety Post by: Jasonmac on February 20, 2012, 07:34:54 pm RIP Tweety you will be missed by many. It was a pleasure hunting with her she had more hustle than some young dogs i hunted with i hope these pups i have out of her have half the heart she had.
Title: Re: RIP Tweety Post by: Mike on February 20, 2012, 07:38:02 pm Thanks everyone.
Tweety was no "super" dog by any means. She was just a good, solid dog that produced a lot of hogs for us the years we owned her. She slowed down quite a bit the last year or so, but in her prime she could burn the woods up from daylight till dark, day in and day out. I sure wish I could have made the Tweety/Hunter cross later this year, but I guess it wasn't meant to be... Title: Re: RIP Tweety Post by: Milam County Hog Hunter on February 20, 2012, 08:39:47 pm Sorry for your loss. RIP Tweety. Always enjoyed the stories of hunts behind her.

Title: Re: RIP Tweety Post by: ROCKIN ROO HOG DOGS on February 21, 2012, 07:36:39 am Some very sad news indeed,the hog hunting family has lost a matriarch and loved member. I know she will be sadly missed and her legacy will live on through her puppies. R.I.P Tweety,your work is done.
Title: Re: RIP Tweety Post by: firemedic on February 21, 2012, 09:07:35 am What sad news this is,....living out East I never had the chance to hunt with Tweety, but sure wish that I had. Remember her just as the pic showed....in the woods searching for hog scent. I have no words of wisdom for you Bud,...only that I'm sorry for your loss.
