The crew

[Machias]

All three dogs are American Leopard Curs.  Look how much Rogue has changed in the last 10 months old. 









Rogue, 10 months old now.  Got a HUGE voice and great hair for up here.  Really looking forward to this pup's future.







Molly, 22 months, really good hair for up here, got a great voice as well.





Bo, he'll be 5 this May, great dog, wish he had a bit more hair, it's awful thin for up here.  Great tree dog, nice and fast.  Very gritty.

Thanks, however this bunch are curs, not hounds. 

[Machias]

It's alot of fun.  I just like watching dogs work, no matter breed or their speciality, upland dogs, retrievers, pursuit, etc...  It's a blast.

Nice looking Curs, Fred.

Good looking Curs. What all do you hunt with them?

[Klyne3]

Good looking Curs. What all do you hunt with them?

Thanks guys.

Nice dogs.  How is bo doing? 

[Machias]

Much better, got the tube out of his face and I'm taking the stiches out of his head on Sat or Sun.  I sent you a text, wondering how Whisper and Tana are doing?

[WAcoyotehunter]

my phone got snowplowed... gone forever.

Tana is good- whisper is doing ok.  She has one stich still in, but the cut looks great.  She has a little lump in her neck that I'm watching. 

Both of them are footsore from an icy run this weekend.  I'm giving them till this weekend to try again.  You interested in coming up?

[Machias]

Glad to hear it.  I might be, but I may end up being on call this weekend and if that happens I have to be close enough to respond in to work.  Going up to the same area?

[WAcoyotehunter]

been in that area + about five others without much luck this week.  I have put ~300 miles on the sled and not found a decent track...striking out lately.  We're due for a good one though.

[Machias]

Been running into many other houndsmen?  That guy I want to introduce you to, Casey, has been running a couple and sent me a photo of a nice lion that they took last weekend.

You getting a new phone then?  New number or same number when you do?

[WAcoyotehunter]

trying to line up the phone today.  There have been houndsmen everywhere... I haven't seen where any of them have turned loose, but there are a few guys running.

[BENCHLEG]

good luck  hounds are fun thanks for keeping the drive alive.
