Cattle Gather

thanks folks . i tried to work that new dog by hisself a couple of days after i got home , he didn't do anything but he'll come around . they said i wouldn't be able to get a hand on him for 10 days cause he was kinda a 1 man dog . i was real easy around him and he slept in the motel with me on the way home .

i went to catch a bull yesterday in middle tn and took 2 litter mates that were full siblings to the dog i got killed in ok ( cowboyxsue) . this place was as hilly and steep as themm ok. mountains and parts of it thicker brush . that male dog is steppin up as a find dog since i lost soot . we rode for 3 hrs on 750 acres before we found this bull , about ready to give up we were making our way back towards the truck when they winded this bull laying down 30 yards in a thicket . that dude stayed bayed for a little bit and then started walking on them . an hour later after he had took us up and down every ridge and through every thicket on that place he finally headed to the barn lol, them dogs were out front the whole time and when i finally got close enough to throw a loop he turned to fight and i got a rope on him . ten minutes later we had his ass drug on the trailer ! we hauled him to the sale barn and after chousing him around and choking him down and transporting him half a day he still weighed 2050 .

thats a testament to these dogs and the folks that bred them the last who knows how many generations !
