Title: another night at the office
Post by: setexasplott on September 25, 2009, 03:36:53 am
decided to bring one of my plotts and a half plott for a run in a rice field tonight with a good friend of mine . he brought a plott and a curr with some plott in it. went earlier than normal and the hogs had not made it to the field yet so we pushed dogs to the woods where i figured they would be hanging out.

a little sow made for a quick catch

after that moved dogs down about half a mile. they started baying a couple hundred yards ahead of us. when we got there we could hear a whole herd then they broke. THREE AND HALF HOURS LATER AND FIVE MILES by way of track we stopped this 243 lb barr hog . We had 2 grown dogs and 2 18 month old pups that never quit . To me this is why i hunt to be able to watch dogs follow through no matter how long it takes.

he did not have much for teeth but he put on one heck of a race. finally took a bay in a stump hole thanks to hurricane ike and was able to send sojo in to put the brakes on his running .

Thats, what makes me proud, finishing the job, and it is especialy nice to have young dogs showing that kind of bottom end. Nice job way to stick with it.

Gregg,

A lot of young dogs will babble.  I would not say she is going to be open off of it.  It is most likely excitement at this stage of her life.

Hey, if she is showing interest at 13 weeks in the woods, I'd say you've got a good prospect.  ;D

As you know, hounds don't turn on until there 4 - 5 years old. ;)  At least that is the way it is based off of what I have read on this fine thing they call the Internet.

I have a couple of cur pups that she runs around and bays with, so no doubt she would bay one...as expected she is a little spazzy, but she has grit for sure...She will definitly stand up for herself even though the other pups are older and bigger than her..  yep, I will be lucky if she turns on by age 4 or so >:D >:D rolleyes rolleyes

If she does not work out, trade her in for a walker.  They can walk on water. :o

If she doesn't work out, I will have to take a good look at my training practice, cause they seem to be working for everyone else. ;D
