We finally got Sean's big white monster out on his first hunt yesterday. Apache is a cat/ab cross that I got from Scott last year as a puppy. The dogs struck a group of hogs in the palmettos... and of course grab a shoat! Clay turned loose Jug and Sean turned Apache loose. He flew straight to the bay, swam a chest-deep slough and was caught hard when we got there. I was real impressed with him.

Clay and I volunteered Sean to get wet since he's always working and gets to miss out on all the action! Grin

I've got a few properties that you'd fit right a home in... and they're all right inside Houston!
