I am looking for some local (I live in NW Houston - Copperfield) folks to hunt with. I've been hunting with dogs for about a year now. Mostly with a friend down around Goliad.
At this point I've got a couple of good dogs that need more time in the field.
1) APBT gyp about 2 yo. a rescue dog that hates hogs and will catch any hog, any time (read suicidal).
2) BMC gyp 3 years old finished dog.
3) BMC gyp 18 mos and well started, hasn't shown any desire to trash and has found her own hogs.
And a couple that I'm not sure about.
1) Dogo Argentino 17mo. male shows desire but hasn't had much time in the field.
2) BMC 1 yo. open, trashes like crazy, but has a good nose and likes to hunt.
What I will do is help with the dogs, pay for fuel, drinks, food, keep the property clean, drag hogs, etc.
What I won't do is show up drunk, freeload, go behind your back to your landowner, etc.
I have a 4 wheeler and my own dog gear.
I realize I'm a newbie to this sport but I love it. My pleasure is watching and hearing the dogs work and getting up close and personal with the hogs. I am willing to work hard, listen and learn. I am self-employed, so I have a certain amount of flexibility in my schedule. I would really appreciate any opportunity to hunt with some of you guys.
