Very nice! They'll probably be trashy because of it...
Frosty- You're still my HERO! You got a name for this pup... or should I just keep calling her "Frosty's pup"? LOL! She's starting to answer to it...

About the tails getting docked...
Here in Arizona, obviously we hunt in desert terrain where there are lots of cactus. So, to keep the dogs tails from getting lots of cactus thorns stuck in them as they whip it back and forth as they cold trail, lots of people around here dock them.

Now that's funny... 3 to 4 day old track wouldn't be out of the question at that age...
