Pretty awesome!

If you read the Walk With Wick books, there's some really good info about breeding hounds. In the second book, there's a really good chapter about rating hounds so that breeders have something to look at. What John Wick says seems to make a lot of sense. If people could make a rating system, it ...

Seems to me that it would be great if people could figure out EPDs for hounds. If you could come up with a rating system based on , say , the averages of the litters for nose power, treeing, tracking ability etc. Then breeders could look at those averages and see what cross might give them the best ...

Looking into falconry. Anyone had any experience? Not sure if I'd ever do it, but it is an intriguing subject and I think it's worth looking into.

Wow, awesome!! Looks like you really had some action!

See, I ride quite a lot of horses. An old friend of mine tells me that you shouldn't be the "boss" of a horse, because even though we don't like to admit it , there are many times horses show themselves to be smarter than us. Rather, you treat it as a team effort, with you being the Captain. I ...

Definetly agree Bigsky1. Way to put it!

Thanks

Hi,
I would like to know what people prefer(gascon or bluetick), why they prefer them and what the
difference between the breeds is. Any info appreciated!
Thanks,

If I ever manage to get some hounds, I'll probably be looking for hard hunting, cold-nosed, cat minded dogs. So I am doing some homework.
