Boy it's been a long couple weeks. First the deer season shut down and then catching up this week. I did get a deer for the freezer during gun week so I'm happy about that. I'm glad to see that some of you are starting to get out again with the dogs or even not with dogs as the case may be. Now that deer season is over, us small game hunters can get back at it!!!!!
I was able to get the hounds out a couple times the past week, but just for short hour long runs. Darn lack of daylight is such an issue this time of year. Yesterday I took a vacation day and was able to get the beagles out for a very much needed 2 3/4 hours. No gun for me, but I did take the camera. They had a short chase by the creek and then we moved back to the woods. The rest of the time was spent on one rabbit. I sat on a downed tree limb near where they jumped it most of the time with a few moves here and there to watch the show. They brought that rabbit round 7 times before I called it quits. Cannot believe that rabbit did not hole up somewhere. It sure was fun though. A few pictures of the chase.
Dottie, 8 years old, this is my dog I got at the local animal shelter.
Buddy, 4 years old, not quite the rabbit dog that my old girl Gabby was, but he does a good job.
And together
