Thanks guys. I’m excited. Ready for them to be a year old already. She split the litter right down the middle.5 boys and 5 girls(I was originally really excited because I thought it was 7 girls and 3 boys). And I believe I already have my pics made lol. 2 of them atleast. Gonna try and keep atleast 3 maybe 4 out of this litter for myself. Boys Girls Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Those are right purdy Slim! This is my six month old. He’s a lizard hunting fool and will work all day at catching one. This is his littermate sister that my King Smitty has. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sadly we lost another sketch offspring last night. Gyp belonged to my partner Tim we called Sister Sara out may 2023 litter. She was the only one that didn’t fire off by a year old. She was real shy so Tim had kept her at his house loose to grow up and let her just be a dog. She finally came out of her shell so Tim took her to his pens a couple weeks ago. Last Friday night I was going to make a round and Tim couldn’t make it so I went and grabbed some of his gyps. Last minute decision I jumped Sara on the trailer.
She took a few casts to figure it out but she started going with other dogs. Her brother my spoon dog rigged a hot track and we dumped box. She ran it half a mile with other dogs and stayed bayed for 20 minutes till we got there and caught the hog. I was proud of her and Tim was happy to hear she was starting to act like maybe she wanted to work.
Last night Tim and Rhett made a run while I had some work. Sara packed up with a little older gyp and went and struck a good boar. They caught him and Sara caught a tooth behind the shoulder. Got in to her chest cavity and from short conversation with Tim, sounds like it ended up getting a piece of one lung. Vet trip was made, they closed her up but she was given a 50/50 shot. She passed about midnight last night in his living room.
Real kick in the nuts for Tim. He literally made the comment over the phone as he was headed to load up last night. “4 years in to this rebuild and I think we’re close”. We still have 4 of her littermates and Tim’s got plenty dog power coming up so it ain’t the end of the world, but dang ya never want one to go out the 2nd time out. Part of it.

Hate to hear that. It would’ve been nice to see how she finished out compared to her littermates. As we all know, luck has a whole lot to do with this game we love.

Yessir, I kind of was thinking the same thing. With her being the outlier of the 6 we kept back. Oh well, charge it to the game, and put another pup in her spot. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
