Wow...That's a blast from the past.

I had a red dog from Jimmy Fox and she did real good. I'd like to get another pup out of that line

Speaking of puppies, I had two of my dogs lock up Tuesday. I'm most likely gonna get her fixed unless I can find enough people interested in some 3/8 leopard 3/8 pit and 1/4 bulldog pups. They'd definitely be gritty, but that would mean I'd only probably be able to hunt her for the first month or so of general gun.

The uterus infection that hog hunter is talking about happened to my unbred female last year. She quit eating and eventually started to drop major weight. She was probably 6 years old at that time. The vet said the recommended procedure is to spay her, which I was fine with until he said it would be close to $500 or he could try antibiotics for $200. I went the medication route and she did a full recovery. But I'd keep an eye on her if she starts losing weight or acting funny, I'd take her to the vet

Mr. Morris would you like to mention that you did half of those ugly welds lol. You know me, I like to have good looking boxes and hunting trucks that look like they can be people's daily drivers

Thanks Charles. I guess I have another project added to the list. Do you think I need to put a sealer on the wood or just put the carpet on as is?

Alright guys thanks for the help. Any recommendations on the glue?

What's the pros and cons of wrapping carpet over plywood for the dogbox roof? I've always just had plywood or diamond plate. This new box that I got is an odd size and the plywood is just a hair short of covering it with one piece, so I gotta use two. I was thinking of covering it with carpet and it'll look better than having two pieces for the roof. But I've never used carpet and neither has my buddies. Does it hold a smell, moisture, and I'm sure after the sun and some blood on the carpet, it's probably not looking the best

Hmm... I think that's like what Charlie's dad always ran and he said it did good for him. But that bib makes Junior look quite hefty lol.

We should meet up sometime during general gun. I'm always happy to meet new people, especially one that has knowledge of the property. Plus with my schedule I have days off throughout the week and will be hunting by myself some so it's always good to know people in case I get in a bind

It sounds like there isn't too many guys running dogs out there for hogs compared to deer.

  Is there a decent amount of hogs in there? I only have one friend that is familiar with it. He just pretty much hunted deer last year because he had nobody to run hogs with. This year it's me and two other buddies that got in and hoping to get on some.

The club or the management area? My buddy hunted the club last year and got a few with good teeth, but got 2 dogs killed because of those big teeth. He got out and we're gonna hunt the management area this year and try our luck.

I live in Morriston. Warren lives in Tennessee, but comes down every so often to hunt Florida. Where are you from?

Not yet. Can't hunt it till general gun starts and can't even go out there to scout till next weekend. I've just been trying to get my new hunting truck and dogbox put together. What's your opinion on the bibs. Since I got a new pup and might be getting my roommate's too I need more cut collars, so I figured I'd just get a bib for Gracie and that'll kill two birds with one stone kinda deal.

My lead in catch dog has a full vest, but I'd like to get my rcd something that allows her to be more agile. I've been running her with just a cut collar and she's been doing fine. I had a strike vest from southern cross kennels and I liked it, but I gave it to my buddy awhile back. I was thinking the bib for the rcd and if my lead in catch dog was getting too hot throughout the day I could switch him to the bib. I've got more dogs than cut collars now, so I also thought instead of buying another collar, just get something with a more protection plus has the collar. The Aussie bibs are nice too, but pricey

I've been undecided on which bib to go with, Hardcore Hogdogs or Wildboar USA...input and opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Yeah I researched the pills and shots he gave me, they totaled around $80.00. So I'm not gonna complain too much with the vet visit, bloodwork, and the antibiotics for $200.00. Yeah i always have penicillin in the fridge. Thats my go to medicine it cures all..from snake bites to broken bones lol.

I use Blue Lotion, it works good for me. That's the purple stuff that KID is talking about
