Let’s talk.

Well that’s (beep) up!

Has anyone heard anything from the hazing study that’s being conducted in Washington State on the Indian Rez? I think they are in year 2 at least, probably year 4 of it. I think Buddy Woodbury from Double U was kinda helping with it.

Have heard a couple podcasts about it , seems like a good way to get some pups started! Haha

[Rowdy Fitz]

Yeah, definitely! I’m wondering if it’s woking out how we all think it would.

[Cwsharer]

From what I have heard smarter people say it really depends on the lion , is it there because there is deer ? Habitat? Or is it desperate and eating cats and dogs ? The healthy lion will leave but you’re gonna have to kill the unhealthy / desperate one .

Makes sense to me

That makes sense.

Yep, any excuse to exercise em with the dogs is good though!

It's still hot in the desert, so I took a little time to put my dog box on a diet. I really wasn't sure how I wanted to build it in the beginning 6 years ago. Over time, I modified it to suit the conditions and it has served us well, but it was too heavy. It was time to shed some unwanted pounds.

That’s a nice little box hollowpoint. I did a real similar thing to what you did. One other thing I did was take the plywood floor out. I got one of those small rubber mats from Tractor Supply. It’s 3’x4’x1/2” and it works great. I leave it in my truck even when I take the box out usually because everything rides so well on it. I have a spray in bed liner but the mat is better. It keeps the dogs off the hot/cold bed and if they go to the bathroom in the box or bleed in it for any reason, the mat is easy to take out and clean.

Thanks lawdawg, looks like I’m going to have to check out our local tractor supply for that rubber mat and see if it’s something I wanna use. This box has been to Texas several times and back, it was just too darn heavy for me to handle by myself.
I wanted it to be light enough for me to move around solo and be strong at the same time. If I remember right, this box had about 110’ of 5/8” square tube in it, I may have cut about 15’ out of it.

[lawdawgharris]

Lol I get it. It’s gotta be strong to hold those monsters in that you are hauling. I knew an old Veterinarian that used a jagd in bay competitions. That little dude put on a show every time.

Mine have done pretty well in the bay pen considering they don't see any swine locally here, I have to travel to get them on hogs. I've been lucky that mine would actually bay, I've seen many that catch out in short order. It's quite the spectacle.

[Hollowpoint]

Is that vet in Gilmer?

[lawdawgharris]

No sir. He was from Groesbeck, Tx. He long retired now. Him and his brother both were inducted into the coon dog hall of fame just a year or two ago.

Anyone found a reason to upgrade from 200i to 300? Or tt15 x to the new 25s ? Just curious if there are any big benefits
